Northern Storm Rising: Russia, Iran, and the Emerging End-Times Military Coalition Against Israel

by Ron Rhodes

Almost 2700 years ago, the prophet Ezekiel detailed a massive end-times attack against Israel. The coalition he describes is still making headlines today. Bible scholar Ron Rhodes analyzes current events in the light of biblical prophecy and empowers readers to "interpret the signs of the times" (Matthew 16:3).

This up-to-date assessment of the situation in the Middle East reveals vital information about...


financial and political ties between the group of nations north of Israel
Muslim leaders' growing antagonism toward Israel and the United States
Iran's development of nuclear weapons and the resulting threat to global security
the polarization of nations supporting extremist Islam and the rest of the world
globalization and its role in setting the stage for a cataclysmic war
Readers will grow in their confidence in God, for to Him, "the nations are like a drop in a bucket" (Isaiah 40:15).

Exceptional

This is an excellent, scholarly, thoughtfully written explanation of world events predicted to occur prior to what Christians view as the (Biblically identified) rapture, the tribulation, and the second coming of Christ. As the author points out, there are numerous disagreements as to the timing, identity, and import of these and related events, and as he also points out, both strong supporting reasons and significant problems with each. While he does venture his opinions, he certainly leaves the reader with freedom of choice. I find his logic to be largely unassailable, and his writing style both even-handed and highly persuasive. A page-turner. Highly recommended.

excellent coverage of the prophecies in Ezekiel, good review of the topic.

RECENT EVENTS in the middle east indicate that the nations identified in Ezekiel 38 and 39 are Muslim nations... this makes sense...

I am in the process of reading your book, Northern Storm Rising. It is without a doubt the best I have read on the subject matter....Your book is tremendous. Keep up your work for our Lord.

Ron Rhodes has produced a book that clearly explicates the emerging end-times coalition that is forming against Israel. It was thought-provoking and motivates me to do further study in this genre.
