There is only one scenario ultimately, the widespread destruction, not destroy, of Israel. Right now, either Israel is going to do a massive attack on Iran, or Iran and Hezbollah will pre-emptively attack Israel again quickly or both.

The rapture is first. 1 Corinthians 15:52
$1,000.00 USD if you can find one scripture that says the Rapture occurs BEFORE His Coming.

Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged. -Hebrews 6:18

1 Thess 4:13-18
But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. 14For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

15For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 16For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18Therefore comfort one another with these words.

Yes, this confirms that God only shows mercy to His people and not to unbelievers. Believers are not judged for their sin so we are the only ones shown mercy, while the unbelievers will pay for ever single sin they have ever committed.

Mercy never triumphs over judgment, these two are not in opposition. They are both independent attributes of God, neither are effected by anything else. They are both fixed in place and they never change or weaken or waver.

Psalm 103:17 is speaking about Gods elect, because we are the only ones who fear Him, while unbelievers spit in His face.
Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged. -Hebrews 6:18

Before you became God's elect in Christ, you were a SINNER in need of MERCY

And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

Therefore the Scripture is TRUE for you = MERCY triumphed over Judgment

I don't see Israel using nukes unless they were on the precipice of destruction. Now, maybe using a small tactical nuke to take out a bunker during a full-scale war is not out of the question. I don't think we're there yet.

I'll do you one better. 1 Thess. 4:13-18 and 1 Corinthians 15:52 is the rapture and it will be in secret.
Matthew 24:29-30, Revelations 1:7, and Revelations 19:14, are a very public 2nd coming.

Getting very close to that AND the False Prophet and the Antichrist are HERE NOW waiting for the right time to save the day.

the result is "MAD" Mutually Assured Destruction.
False on 2 counts:
  1. Israel has nukes. Iran does not. It is not MAD but "JAD," Jihadi's Assured Destruction.
  2. MAD only works as a deterant to civilizations who want to survive, e.g., USA and Russia. This pact does not apply to Islamic Jihadi's who have a suicidal death wish as it assures their place in heaven. Indeed, it is the only way to assure their arrival in paradise per the tenets of Islam.

There's only one way this can end, and it is the total destruction of Iran, Hezbolla, Hamas and the Hutis. These terrorists must be eliminated, before the middle east can enjoy peace. The terrorists hate peace, they were created to be death cults and they only understand one language and it's not diplomacy.

Before you became God's elect in Christ, you were a SINNER in need of MERCY

And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

There are two parallel realities existing at the same time. God exists outside of His creation, and He sees the whole of time from the beginning to the end at the same time. So from His point of view, I was saved when He elected to save me, before time began.

From my perspective, God showed me mercy when He regenerated and converted me from a sate of death to a state of eternal life. But from Gods point of view this was a done deal before He created the world, so it is hard for me to get my head around the way God works. He is a mystery, we can only see what He is doing in the present and the past but we don't know what He is going to do in the next moment.

In reality I didn't become one of Gods elect at a pint in time. He elected me before time began, at a time when I didn't need any mercy because I had not sinned yet so I didn't deserve to be judged either. That's why I don't see any need for God's mercy to trump His justice. Those attributes of God don't compete in any way, all His attributes complement each other and none ever compete in any way.

I take your point that Gods elect are blessed beyond measure because He has bestowed His love and mercy upon us rather that His wrath, which we deserve.

So you think you are wiser then JESUS and the Apostles Peter, Paul and John = altogether!!!

Hey proud boy- humble yourself and wise UP = You came into this world DEAD in sin

And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

I see you're not trying to be politically correct, you don't seem to be going along with the narrative that, "Islam is a religion of peace". I respect you for speaking the truth, which is now considered "hate speech".

I formed my view regarding MAD, because Pakistan is an Islamic country and it has nuclear weapons, but someone has previously advised me that Pakistan's nuclear weapons are not long range so they wouldn't reach Israel.

There's a very interesting old video documentary called "Islam what the west needs to know", it sums up Islam very well and it's very politically incorrect and I'm surprised to see it hasn't been removed by youtube yet.

I never suggested that I wasn't born dead in my trespasses and sins. You misunderstood what I was trying to say, about the two realities that coexist in time.

I was trying to make the point that God is a mystery, so we will never understand His ways. I'm sure you believe God elected those He purposed to save before time began, Adam had not sinned before I was elected so I stand by my earlier point that I was sinless when God elected me.

I inherited my sin nature from my parents and my ancestors inherited their sin nature from Adam. I don't pretend to know why God chose to save me while He left the majority of mankind dead in their sin. I boast in the Lord, because I have noting to boast about. I'm no better than any unbeliever, so I'm not saying I deserve to be saved while others don't.
