Turkey Continues Move Towards Jerusalem

[Richard Myers]

There is a battle going on between Israel and Turkey. Now that Turkey has control of Syria, we can expect trouble. The Bible tells us that Turkey will go into Jerusalem.  It had not done so yet because God is holding the winds back. But, soon it will happen.

Turkey fully suspends trade and closes airspace to Israel, a wartime-level rupture that analysts warn could fuel dangerous escalation. Turkey’s full suspension of economic and trade relations with Israel, coupled with the closure of its airspace, marks an unprecedented escalation that could have far-reaching consequences  source

Shortly after Turkey goes into Jerusalem, she will come to her end, no one will help her.  It ought not be a surprise that Turkey will come to her end for going into Jerusalem. Who do you think will put her to death?

Why do we spend time sharing Turkey's desire to conquer Jerusalem? Because when Turkey comes to her end, probation for all will then come. He who is holy will remain holy, and he who is filthy will remain filthy. Characters will be forever fixed. Then will come a time of trouble such as never was. The winds which God has held back will be let go and all hell will break loose. I am not a prophet, only reporting what the prophets have revealed.

An Israeli government-formed committee has warned of a potential conflict with Turkey, highlighting Ankara's ambition to restore Ottoman-era influence. The Nagel Committee's latest report on defence and security strategy, submitted on December 6, urges Israel to prepare for a possible war with Turkey.   source

Much has happened since these articles were published, last January. It is only because God is holding back the winds, that Erdogon has not attacked Israel.

The collapse of the Assad regime in Syria has increased the potential of war between Turkey and Israel. "For the first time since 1950, Ankara no longer ruled out direct confrontation, while Israeli institutions began treating Turkey as a potential strategic adversary, particularly over Syria." Dec 21, 2025. source       

When Turkey goes into Jerusalem and comes to  her end (Dan. 11:45), the Bible tells us "at that time shall Michael stand up, the great Prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation [even] to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book." Dan. 12:1. This is the end of probation for the whole world.

Thus, God is holding the winds back so that Turkey will not come to her end just yet. We have not done that which God has entrusted to us.
Until God has a people who God then can say "let him who is holy be holy still" probation can not end. Jesus is stuck in the Most Holy Place cleansing the sins of His people. Yes, God will have a  people who have ceased to sin, even though few understand it is possible for sinful man to, through the power of God's grace, cease crucifying our Savior Jesus Christ.

As it was with Eve in the Garden, Israel of Old, Babylon today, and modern day Israel, Satan has been successful at deceiving man by convincing them that when one disobeys God he will not surely die. Yes, even many conservative Seventh-day Adventists make excuses for sin when there is no excuse for sin. God has provided a remedy for sinners at great cost. But, few choose to spend a thoughtful hour each day contemplating the life of Jesus. Thus, they do not benefit from the promise found in 2 Cor. 3:18: "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord."
