Just saying . . .
One of most intriguing Bible prophecies about the end times has to do with Isaiah 17. The prophecies in Isaiah 17 point to the destruction of Damascus, Syria. The Bible states that the destruction of Damascus will be so great that the city will be nothing but a "ruinous heap" after the fulfillment of the ancient prophecy. This is noteworthy because presently the city is recognized as the world's longest constantly inhabited city. The utter destruction of Damascus will be an event that only God could have predicted, yet he warns in Isaiah 17 that Damascus does have a date with destiny in the prophetic future:
Isa 17:1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from [being] a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
Interesting in light of present day happenings, no?
