What the Bible Reveals about Iran Past, Present, and Future ( M. Ashton)

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The video script discusses the accuracy of historical information and focuses on an archaeological discovery in Iran. It explores the role of Persia in protecting God's people in the past, but predicts a change in its future role as an aggressor against God's people. The script also emphasizes the importance of supporting and blessing God's people as descendants of Abraham. Description: Iran, formerly Persia, was once friends with Israel, enabling the Jews to return to their own land to re-establish their national identity. This is far removed from the present situation of extreme hostility between these nations. The Bible foretells the future outcome of this hostility – Iran allied with Russia, will invade and conquer Israel, before God’s intervention. These events, as we see them happening, are powerful witnesses to the existence of God and of his purpose with those who believe in him. - 💡 The accuracy of historical information relies on artifacts, inscriptions, and archaeological discoveries. The script highlights the significance of deciphering inscriptions like the Bistun inscription to understand ancient civilizations. This helps establish a reliable historical narrative. - 💡 The role of Persia in history shifted from being a protector of God's people, exemplified by Cyrus's decree, to a future role as an aggressor against God's people, as prophesied in Ezekiel and Revelation. This change in mindset and allegiance was influenced by the rise of Islam in Persia, altering its relationship with the Jewish people. - 💡 The script emphasizes the importance of supporting and blessing God's people, as descendants of Abraham, to receive God's blessings. It encourages individuals to consider their stance towards the Jewish people and align themselves with God's purpose. - 💡 The script highlights the historical context of Iran and its significance within biblical narratives. It explores the connection between ancient civilizations, such as Babylon, Persia, and the Jewish people, providing insights into the historical and religious dynamics of the region. - 💡 The script discusses the concept of race and racial ideologies associated with ancient Persian culture. It notes the negative consequences of such ideologies, like the Nazi propaganda, and highlights the importance of recognizing the equality of all individuals, regardless of race or nationality. - 💡 The script acknowledges the limitations of individual influence over geopolitical events and emphasizes the importance of personal choices in aligning with God's purpose. It encourages individuals to consider their stance towards God's people and strive to be a blessing to them, as exemplified by Abraham's faithfulness and the promise God made to him.
