Peace and Security, Great Tribulation, Armageddon


Recommended Posts

11. Describing the time leading up to World War I, Daniel 11:27, 28 says that the king of the north and the king of the south would “sit at one table speaking lies.” It also says that the king of the north would accumulate “a great amount of goods.” Again, this is what happened. Germany and Britain told each other that they wanted peace, but those statements proved to be lies when the war broke out in 1914. And in the decades before 1914, Germany grew rich, becoming the second-largest economy in the world. Then, in fulfillment of Daniel 11:29 and the first part of verse 30, Germany fought with the king of the south but was defeated.

Dear publishers, be careful.
First check how Bible verses are explained in the publications and search for information in the Online Library before making comments, especially regarding the fulfillment of certain prophecies.
I've just said the conference made me think of this verse. Nothing more. The pushing mentioned in the same chapter of Daniël, is applied to our day in the same article series.

Regarding the discussion prophecies in this Watchtower have a good reminder:

 

"When discussing Bible prophecy, however, we should avoid speculating. Why? Because we would not want to say anything that could cause disunity in the congregation. For instance, we may hear world leaders talk about how they can solve a particular conflict and bring peace and security. Instead of speculating that such a statement fulfills the prophecy at 1 Thessalonians 5:3, we need to keep up-to-date with the latest published information. When we base our discussions on material published by Jehovah's organization, we help the congregation to remain united "in the same line of thought."—1 Cor. 1:10; https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/2023285

As it is the word of Jehova, we can expect that even if some verses refeers to a specific event (11:27), still jehova have written down the  description of the heart conditions of the north and south kings.
We can expect verses to show the behaviours (like this) to be adaptable over and over again even if it is not a prophecy over a specific event.

like when reading in proverbs over a ”wicked” person… so, you can actually find nice Gems through out daniel chap 11 on behaviours that we will see over and over again regarding the kings ways of acting.

Ukraine’s president said he would fly to Washington on Monday to meet with Donald Trump after a telephone call with the US president in which he was briefed on the key points of the Alaska summit. The meeting will mark the first return to the White House for Volodymyr Zelenskyy since his infamous row with Trump in late February.

Zelenskyy said that his hour-long one-on-one conversation with Trump was “long and substantive”.

 

“President Trump informed [me] about his meeting with the Russian leader and the main points of their discussion,” Zelenskyy wrote, adding that Ukraine supported Trump’s proposal for a trilateral meeting between the two men and Vladimir Putin.https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/aug/16/zelenskyy-to-meet-trump-on-monday-putin-alaska-summit-briefing
