Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Salman pushing King of the South?

Mohammed Bin Salman al-Saud

A reader tipped me off to the following about Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman:

November 27, 2017

(CNN) Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said the country’s two-year-old military coalition would “pursue terrorism until it is eradicated completely” …

The Saudi-led Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition (IMCTC) was established in 2015 amid criticism that Arab states were not doing enough to fight ISIS. The group’s first meeting came in the wake of Friday’s deadly attack on a Sufi mosque in Egypt’s northern Sinai, which killed more than 300 people, including 27 children, according to the Egyptian state prosecutor. http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/26/middleeast/saudi-arabia-crown-prince-terrorism-fight/index.html

Riyadh (AFP) – Saudi Arabia’s crown prince vowed to “pursue terrorists until they are wiped from the face of the earth” as officials from 40 Muslim countries gathered Sunday in the first meeting of an Islamic counter-terrorism alliance.

“In past years, terrorism has been functioning in all of our countries… with no coordination” among national authorities, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is also Saudi defence minister, said in his keynote address to the gathering in Riyadh.

“This ends today, with this alliance.”

The summit is the first meeting of defence ministers and other senior officials from the Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition, which officially counts 41 countries and identifies as a “pan-Islamic unified front” against violent extremism. https://www.yahoo.com/news/saudi-vows-islamic-alliance-wipe-terrorists-earth-140228852.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma

Could this group be a prelude to the coming King of the South of biblical prophecy?

Back on August 20, 2014, I posted:

The time will come when there will be a type of caliphate confederation that will encompass many nations in the Middle East and North Africa (Daniel 11:40-43; Ezekiel 30:2-8). There will be some type of Western cooperation as it will likely be believed that such a confederation will have leaders NOT be considered to be as radical and murderous as the Islamic State now is.

Actually, I suspect that when the final King of the South begins to rise up, he and his supporters will indicate that such a confederation/caliphate is precisely what is needed to keep the more radical terrorists under control. And while I do believe that such a confederation will take militaristic as well as terroristic actions against the USA and UK (cf. Psalm 83:3-8) , it is likely that politicians in both countries will endorse various aspects of such a confederation.

As I have written before, one of the reasons that a “King of the South confederation” will form is because some national leaders will consider that they are facing a worse threat by NOT agreeing to a confederation. Steps for fulfilling the biblical prophecies related to the formation of that confederation are taking place. (Thiel B. COGwriter. Beheading, and France calls for ‘global strategy’ to deal with the Islamic State. August 20, 2014)

The pushing of a group of at least 40 nations with high Islamic populations to deal with terrorism and ‘radical Islam’ is consistent with what I wrote.

So, yes, this is a prelude to the coming confederation that will be led by the King of the South of biblical prophecy. Notice a relevant prophecy:

40 At the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through. 41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon. 42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. (Daniel 11:40-42, NKJV).

43 and he hath ruled over treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and Lubim and Cushim are at his steps. (Daniel 11:43, Young’s literal translation)

The following scriptures are also related to a coming King of the South:

1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, prophesy and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says:

“‘Wail and say, “Alas for that day!” 3 For the day is near, the day of the LORD is near- a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations. 4 A sword will come against Egypt, and anguish will come upon Cush. When the slain fall in Egypt, her wealth will be carried away and her foundations torn down.

5 Cush and Put, Lydia and all Arabia, Libya and the people of the covenant land will fall by the sword along with Egypt.

6 “‘This is what the LORD says:

“‘The allies of Egypt will fall and her proud strength will fail. From Migdol to Aswan they will fall by the sword within her, declares the Sovereign LORD. 7 “‘They will be desolate among desolate lands, and their cities will lie among ruined cities. 8 Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I set fire to Egypt and all her helpers are crushed.

9 “‘On that day messengers will go out from me in ships to frighten Cush out of her complacency. Anguish will take hold of them on the day of Egypt’s doom, for it is sure to come (Ezekiel 30:1-9, NIV).

As I have written for years, the situation in the Middle East and North Africa must change for various biblical prophecies to be fulfilled.

The comments from Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince confirm that it is possible, and that changes can occur quickly.

Here is something else I posted several months ago:

For more scriptures pointing to why the King of the South is likely to be Egyptian are found in the article Is the Future King of the South Rising Up? …

The appointment of the new crown prince will somehow align with various biblical prophecies as in a sense, he and Donald Trump may ‘stir the pot’ in that region of the world. (Thiel B. Saudi Crown Prince, Iran, and the King of the South. COGwriter, June 22, 2017)

Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince is stirring the pot. His anti-terrorist group is not the King of the South power at this time, but is an alignment that could be led by the final King of the South.

Properly understood biblical prophecies are coming to pass.
