China and India have clashed in border regions:<\/p>\n

China claims valley where Indian, Chinese troops battled <\/span><\/h2>\n

June 20, 2020<\/p>\n

NEW DELHI \u2014 China said the Galwan Valley high up in the Himalayan border region where Chinese and Indian troops engaged in a deadly brawl this week falls entirely within China, boldly renewing claims on the disputed area as the Asian giants continued using military and diplomatic channels to try to reduce tensions on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The confrontation in the Galwan Valley, part of the disputed Ladakh region along the Himalayan frontier, was the deadliest between the two countries in 45 years. India blames China for instigating the fight by developing infrastructure in the valley, which it said was a breach of the agreement of what area remained in dispute.<\/p>\n

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said in a statement Friday that \u201cthe Galwan Valley is located on the Chinese side of the Line of Actual Control in the west section of the China-India boundary.\u201d<\/p>\n

He blamed incursions by Indian troops in the area from early May for a midnight clash on Monday that left 20 Indian soldiers dead. China has not said whether it suffered any casualties.<\/p>\n

Soldiers brawled with clubs, rocks and their fists in the thin air at 14,000 feet above sea level, but no shots were fired, Indian officials have said. The soldiers carry firearms but are not allowed to use them under a previous agreement in the border dispute.<\/p>\n

Indian security officials have said the fatalities were caused by severe injuries and exposure to subfreezing temperatures. https:\/\/www.mercurynews.com\/2020\/06\/20\/china-claims-valley-where-indian-chinese-troops-battled\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since China and India are the two most populous nations in the world, is this about to start WWIII?<\/p>\n

Back in 2016, I posted:<\/p>\n

As far as those in Asia go, Russia, China, and India are increasing their military spending–as are others in Asia.<\/p>\n

Yet, even though there will be issues, that will not end in massive, WWIII, confrontation between the Asians. (Thiel B. China and India increasing military spending: Confrontation in Asia or \u2018time of the Gentiles\u2019?<\/a>\u00a0COGwriter, December 12, 2016)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Why did I post the above?<\/p>\n

Because the Bible tells of a time when there will be a confederation of the \u2018kings of the east\u2019 that will get together:<\/p>\n

12 Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.<\/p>\n

15 “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”<\/p>\n

16 And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon. (Revelation 16:12-16)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This will include China and India. It will also include Russia, Korea, Japan, and probably Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines. Things will one day dramatically change, militarily, in Asia, in terms of cooperation.<\/p>\n

Notice also the following:<\/p>\n

13 Then the sixth angel sounded: And I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14 saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.” 15 So the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released to kill a third of mankind. 16 Now the number of the army of the horsemen was two hundred million<\/strong>; I heard the number of them. 17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision: those who sat on them had breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow<\/strong>; and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions; and out of their mouths came fire, smoke, and brimstone. 18 By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed\u2013by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone which came out of their mouths(Revelation 9:13-18).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Only China, and possibly India and others in Asia (many of which will one-day align themselves with China and Russia against the European Empire), are capable of fielding a two hundred million man army. Thus, Revelation appears to be discussing an Asian role in the end-time prophecies.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, from a prophetic perspective, the colors of the Chinese flag for its navy and air force is military is red, blue, and yellow. Also, notice the colors of the insignia that many of its troops wear:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Those are the same colors mentioned in Revelation 9:17.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, consider that there were only about 100,000,000 males (including children) on the entire earth when God had the Apostle John pen the prophecy in Revelation 9:16 that a 200,000,000 man army would form (Rastogi VB, Kishore B. A Complete Course in ISC Biology. Pitambar Publishing, 1997, p. 24). This means, despite those who claim that the Book of Revelation was fulfilled centuries ago (see The Dangerous Rise of Preterists<\/a>), that the prophecy about the 200 million man army is for a time like we are now in.<\/p>\n

So, what is happening now?<\/p>\n

Notice Jesus’ words:<\/p>\n

7 But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet. 8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows. (Mark 13:7-8)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We are in the beginning of sorrows.<\/p>\n

The end is not yet.<\/p>\n

There will be more wars and rumors of war prior to WWIII.<\/p>\n
