Ethiopia will Attack Israel - Prophecy.

A lot of people may not know this but the old Ethiopia used to span right across to Somalia onto the coast, but now this unstable region which is now called Somalia boasts of infamous pirates, lack of human rights, forced religion and Sharia Law. What this means is that it is likely these clans from Somalia will join forces in the Gog and Magog war. There are said to be tribes from specific zones and nations, if Ethiopia is for some reason mentioned then it may not be the current Ethiopia we know today.

Interesting enough Ethiopia is known to hold in secret the Ark of the Covenant, we know from the Bible and the Indiana Jones movie that it has the power of heavenly fire, if it gets hold onto the wrong hands it could literally backfire and cause what the Bible says cause fire to come down from heaven, this to the people who misuse it. This will of course make us think Israel attacked these nations and people which will cause the world to attack Israel. The Art of the Covenant is literally translated back in heaven like a beam of heavenly light attached to it, who better than Somalia pirates to highjack it?

Already Israel has been lucky that weapons have been found before they reached terrorist groups in Israel, lately the Ship off Cyprus and the ship off the Somalian coast with toxic material both from Iran which were intercepted.

The only drawback is of prophecy that could be about the 1000 years after Christ arrives for the final revolt. Or it could be a dual prophecy, but no doubt if the seeds are sowed now then 1000 years later history will repeat itself.

In the Tanakh or Old Testament, the Hebrew Prophet Ezekiel in the Book of Ezekiel chapters 38-39 speaks of an invasion carried out by a group of nations against the Land of Israel, led by "Gog", who is said to originate from "The Land of Magog" (Ezekiel 38:1–2).

According to Ezekiel, the invading armies will lose without a battle, when God rains down fire and brimstone on their military forces (Ezekiel 38:20–22). Gog of the Land of Magog, the Chief Prince of Meshech and Tubal, moves to pillage the Land of Israel, and is destroyed by fire from heaven and for seven months, Israel buries the corpses in a valley called "Hamon-Gog." The timing of this invasion is said to occur when the Jews are secure and prospering in their land after just coming out of a worldwide exile (Ezekiel 38:8, 10–12).

Text

The invading countries are identified in Ezekiel by their ancient tribal names: Magog, Meshech and Tubal, Persia, Ethiopia (Cush), Libya (Phut or Put), Gomer, and house of Togarmah (Beth-Togarmah). Many of these names are derived from the Table of Nations, a genealogy in Genesis 10 of the human race after Noah's Flood. Specifically, Ezekiel 38–39 mentions by name several of the grandsons and great-grandsons of Noah from Genesis 10: four or five of the seven sons of Japheth (Magog, Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, and possibly Madai - later known as Pars), and two of the four sons of Ham (Cush and Phut). Togarmah (son of Gomer), Sheba and Dedan (grandsons of Cush), and Tarshish (son of Javan) are also mentioned, but these last three (Sheba, Dedan, and Tarshish) are not said to participate in the attack against Israel (Ezekiel 38:13).

Ethiopia doesnt have the resources to rob a 7-11, let alone attack Israel.

and since OP mentioned it, did they ever show the Ark like they were going to a few months back??

Nope...no Ark. Oh well...guess we will have to send in Indiana Jones after all.

Also...Ethiopia should be attacking more 7-11s.

Somalia is a failed state - that means a bad economy, no money, poor, starving people. They may buy AK-47s to raid ships and take hostages, but they are in no position to attack a country, especially not Israel.

Iran's economy has also failed, and the revolutionary guards take all of the oil money, whilst selling resources at discount prices to countries like venezeula and turkey. The Iranian regime has too many internal problems to wage full scale war with anyone. They're at war with their own people. They may not be toothless, but they aren't going to wipe out Israel, however any of them may try.

Its places like Eithopia and Somailia were these attacks are likly to come. Poverty allows different facets to enter and inflence societies like these.. If you were going to gane support and launch a missle. Somewere like Somalia would be a great place to choose.

Dude that was so dry i nearly wet laughing
Have to agree though not wanting to be impolite to the OP but the whole idea seems a little ridiculous.

It would appear that the ark thing is nothing but wishful thinking by some, and a ruse for importance by others.

The very idea that a withered old priest is the sole guardian of a shack containing what would probably be the most precious object on earth is -- (shrugs shoulders ,shakes head)

seems i do recall that Cush, Phut, Lud, Libya, & Egypt are all part of the N. African peoples aligned with Gog=Chief prince of Magog

~i could have faulty memory~

popular endtime interpetations say that this Gog-Magog war of Ezekiel 38, precedes the Armageddon battle.
But you raise a point i was never able to resolve---that being the group which includes the several N. African peoples that attack 'Israel'...might actually be doing their deed after the 1000 year millennial Kingdom,
i.e.: during the brief period when Satan is loosed for a 'season' to corrupt the easily deceived & corruptable humans that are around then

I'd.. have to agree with the posters in this thread who be blieve this is pretty impossible at the moment. In a moderately-distant future - maybe. But right now, these countries have way more important things to worry about than invading Israel; such as getting enough food for it's people, stopping the spread of AIDS, (typical African country blunders).

First off I mean Ethiopia of the ancient times that is now called Somalia, a lot of the prophecies mean certain tribes of people will be gathering against Israel which means that maybe it is not always government run war, it could be certain extreamists of these lands, with maybe hidden weapons who will want to make this a war.

As for the Ark, it is just hyperthetical in how something could go wrong if something so spiritual is ever captured by the wrong side. But ultimately the end result will be like Sodom and Gomorrah.
But prophecy also suggests that maybe Babylon must fall first, which is going to be the world trade centre of finace which is today Iraq with its oil will dictate the share. Once that has been established and connected to the rest of the world cities you know the last era here. So there could be a halt still, meaning somewhere along the line Iran will be halted and no nukes or mass war will come out of it just yet, in the end if the UN or Israel attack these facilities it is always a prophetic win win situation.

Anyway this is short video provided with visual what the Bible says in Eziekiel 38-39 and by the very words you see how much of it is true.

Anyway need to reignite this thread, I know it sounds unusual at first but I think I could be onto the right track, geography changes al the time, I would not be surprised if Eithiopia becomes half Islamic once the millitants spread over on the boarders, still time for things to get worse.

Ok, this is as far as I got in the OP. "Known to hold in secret" Well if it is known the how can it be in secret. And the one that made coffee shoot out of my nose, "We know from... the Indiana Jones movie" Seriously dude, seriously? If you are basing your opinions on what you have seen in Indiana Jones movies then I have to say it is time for you to get out of the basement, get some fresh air, maybe take a walk in a park, and please stay far away from the SIFI network.

I find this interesting. Where do you get this information?

The only time I have heard of the Ark being in the hand of the Ethiopians was from a documentary on the history or discovery channel I think it was. they talked about the disciples going into Ethiopia and making Christians there and that they had the Ark because it was one of the safest places they could hide it. These Ethiopian Christians are supposed to be directly descended from the disciples without any contamination.. a true as you can get Orthodox Christian Church.

There has been so many videos about it and documentaries from all over the western world. But there is another theory saying that it is hidden under Temple Mount in Israel as there are lots of underground chambers there. But the Muslims make a fuss about things like that, a bit like every other archeological servey and discovery, especially if it proves the world wrong and other religions.

Talk about the Ark being used, it would actually be impossible because in the wrong hands they would get plagues and even die from it so I guess that is where Indianna Jones get the ending from it.

I Samuel 4-7

The Philistines took the ark of God down to Ashdod, one of their chief cities. They set it in the temple of Dagon, their fish-headed idol. The next morning, when they came into the temple, the image of Dagon was lying upon its face before the ark of the Lord. They stood the image up again; but on the next morning, not only was Dagon fallen down before the ark, but the hands and the head of Dagon had been cut off and were lying on the floor.

Besides all this, in the city of Ashdod, where the ark had been taken, all the people began to have boils and sores. They saw in this the hand of the God of Israel, and they sent the ark to Gath, another of their cities. There, too, the people broke out with boils and sores. They sent the ark to Ekron, but the people of that city said, "We will not have the ark of God among us. Send it back to its own land, or we shall all die."

obviously a box full of D.U.

If Ethiopia does have the Ark then it makes sense why they have been plagued with famine in th 80s and there is a war going on next door to them, if they claim to have it then they should place it in Israel, no other country should have it, hiding it will only kill their people, that is speaing by Biblical accounts to what happens if in the wrong hands.

It would not be surprising if Somalia's problems spill over to Ethiopia which it once did back 1977 which resulted in war but that time the people did not have Israel on their minds, it seems today that Ethiopia has its sights on Israel for spiritual connections while at same time Somolia has become a country with extreamists which which will result in maying persuing the problems up the Middle East again.

The Ethiopia of Bible History (see also Bible Places) was located to the south of Egypt (see The Ancient Egyptians), extending through the junction of the White and Blue Nile (see The Nile River), including, and beyond, what is today Sudan (the map below shows the modern-day boundaries of Ethiopia and Sudan). Ethiopia is the Greek word that was used for the Hebrew word Cush, with both used interchangeably through The Bible. Ethiopia was inhabited by Ham's son Cush (see Sons Of Noah) (Genesis 10:6, Jeremiah 13:23, Isaiah 18:1-2).


•Ethiopia's history was often interwoven with that of Egypt. Together or apart they fought wars with the Israelites from time to time. During the reign of Rehoboam (see Kings of Israel and Judah), Ethiopia fought with Egypt against Judah (2 Chronicles 12:3). In the reign of Asa, a very large force of Ethiopians under Zerah was defeated by Judah (2 Chronicles 14:9-13, 16:7-9). Later, Tirhakah, a powerful Ethiopian king of a dynasty that had subjected Egypt itself, came against Hezekiah of Judah but was driven back by the Assyrians (see Ancient Empires - Assyria) (2 Kings 19:9, Isaiah 37:9)

•Because of their attacks upon the land of Israel, the destruction of the Ethiopian kingdom became certain (a lesson foolishly ignored by Israel's enemies today). Many prophecies dealt with their coming ruin (e.g. Isaiah 18:1, 20:3-5, 43:3, Jeremiah 46:9-10)

•There is some indication that the Ethiopians may have held territory other than in Africa, on the east side of the Red Sea, in what is today Arabia (2 Chronicles 21:16)

•Ethiopia was the westernmost frontier of the Persian Empire at its peak (see Ancient Empires - Persia) (Esther 1:1, 8:9)

•Ethiopia was a source of the precious stone topaz (Job 28:19)

•In the time of the New Testament, Ethiopia was ruled by Candace, a queen mentioned in Acts 8:27. It was one of her servants, now popularly known as the "Ethiopian eunuch," who was converted and baptized by Philip (Acts 8:26-40)
