The drums of war are beating, with some new players joining the frenzied march to wipe out Israel and take over God’s holy city, Jerusalem. Arafat, Hafez al-Assad, King Hussein and Saddam Hussein are long gone, Now, it’s Putin, Erdogan, al-Assad, Rouhani, Abdullah, Netanyahu and President Trump, fighting for position on the world stage. How do all of these world leaders fit into Biblical prophecy and what’s next on the prophetic calendar? No one understands the complex Middle East cauldron like newsmaker Bill Koenig from Koenig’s International News. Follow Gary and Bill as they examine the prophecies of the Bible and try to uncover God’s next big move!

0:05.0 | The United States. And here to talk about those seven major players is our good friend Bill Keenick. Bill, welcome back. |
0:32.6 | Thank you, Gary. |
