Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah put together a three-day Moslem conference with over five-hundred Moslem leaders from some fifty countries gathering in Mecca, Islam's holiest site, for the purpose of making peace within Islam.
The summit, attended by both Shiite and Sunni Moslems, discussed such issues as nuclear proliferation in the Middle East, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the rebuilding of Iraq, but many saw the conference as a bid to achieve geopolitical security at a time when oil prices are skyrocketing. This Moslem only conference is a precursor to the summit that will be a trilateral interfaith summit including Christians and Jews proposed by King Abdullah who believes he must reach a consensus within Islam before his ultimate summit.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Saudi Arabia's King Abdulla believes a trilateral interfaith summit can bring stability to the geopolitical world, however Bible prophecy reveals that is not going to happen
Having over five-hundred delegates from some fifty countries from both sides of the Moslem religious arena, the Shiites and the Sunnis, was some accomplishment. King Abdullahs' dream to have Moslems sit down with Christians and Jews at an interfaith summit with a hoped for outcome of geopolitical stability is not going to happen in the long run.
Bible prophecy reveals that true born-again Bible believing Christians will depart this world at the Rapture before the Middle East explodes, I Thessalonians 4 and I Corinthians 15. The ancient Jewish prophets foretold of the terrible time of Jacob's Trouble, persecution of the Jews, as the Messiah will use all these troubles for the Jewish people to bring them to himself, Jeremiah 30 and Micah 7. In fact, two other Jewish prophets, Joel and Ezekiel predict that the Moslem world will try to destroy the Jewish people, that's Joel 2, and the Lord will intercede and wipeout the Moslem world, Ezekiel 39.
No interfaith summit will bring geopolitical stability and security to the Middle East, only the return of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, will accomplish that.
