II Timothy 3:1 – This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
Romans 11:25-27 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. [26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: [27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
Romans 8:18-23 – For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. [19] For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
[20] For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, [21] Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. [22] For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. [23] And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

Revelation 11:18 – And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
THIS IS WHEN THE JUDGED “CAUGHT UP” RETURN TO EARTH
Luke 21:27 – And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

‘Syrian forces kill 5 protesters in Homs as unrest spreads’

Rights campaigner in city says pro-democracy demonstrators shot at during large protest, scores injured; forces arrest opposition leader Seif during Damascus protest, his daughter says; violence erupts around country.
Syrian security forces shot dead five pro-democracy demonstrators when they fired at a large protest calling for political freedoms in the city of Homs on Friday, a rights campaigner in the city said.
“Five bodies were picked up in Bab al-Sibaa area. There are scores of injured protesters. Thousands are still marching peacefully in other parts of Homs,” said the rights campaigner, who asked not to be identified.

Protests broke out across Syria on Friday, with thousands calling for freedom in the Kurdish east and dozens briefly marching in Damascus to demand
the ousting of President Bashar Assad, activists and witnesses said.
Also on Friday, security forces arrested opposition leader Riad Seif at a pro-democracy demonstration in the Midan district of Damascus, his daughter and human rights campaigners said.
“My father was shoved into a bus with other protesters who were detained during the demonstration near the al-Hassan mosque,” Jumana Seif told Reuters.
Seif, 64, has prostate cancer. He spent a total of eight years as a political prisoner on charges of “weakening national morale”, a charge regularly used by the Syrian authorities against opposition and independent figures critical of Syria’s autocratic rule.
The army, which stormed the southern city of Deraa last month to crush resistance in the cradle
of the seven-week uprising, deployed tanks in the central city of Homs and security forces quickly dispersed the Damascus protest.
Witnesses said security forces also opened fire at protesters in the town of Tel, just north of the capital, wounding demonstr
ators.
Activist Wissam Tarif said protests also took place in the southern town of Jassem, coastal Banias, and Amouda in the east.
Human rights campaigners say army, security forces and gunmen loyal to Assad had killed at least 560 civilians during pro-democracy demonstrations that started in March. Thousands have been arrested and beaten, including the elderly, women and children, they said.
Officials give a much lower death toll and say half the fatalities have been soldiers and police, and blame “armed terrorist groups” for the violence.
The United States, which called the army crackdown in Deraa “barbaric”, imposed further targeted sanctions last week against Syrian officials and Europe’s main powers have been pushing for similar European Union measures.

Syria: Tanks ‘deploy around Rastan’ after protests
May 4, 2011
Tanks and armoured vehicles have deployed near Rastan, north of Syria’s capital Damascus, witnesses say.
Earlier, thousands of people in the north took part in protests calling for greater social and political freedoms.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has called on President Bashar al-Assad to end a six-week clampdown on opposition supporters.
Some 2,843 people are confirmed as detained, although campaigners say the total could be nearer to 8,000.
They say detainees have been subjected to torture. The US has denounced the crackdown as “barbaric”.
Human rights groups say about 560 people have been killed across the country in anti-government protests.
Large numbers of people are said to have been arrested in recent days, and there are reports of police using tear gas and making arrests at Wednesday’s protests.
The protests, which began on 15 March, pose the most serious challenge to four decades of rule by the Assad family in one of the Arab world’s most repressive and tightly controlled countries.
Foreign journalists are barred from Syria, and reports cannot be verified.
Cities under siege
In his phone conversation with Mr Assad, Mr Ban “reiterated his calls for an immediate end to violence against and mass arrests of peaceful demonstrators in Syria, and for an independent investigation of all killings that happened during the protests”, said a statement from his office.
He also “called on President Assad to immediately grant access to the United Nations in order to assess the humanitarian needs of the affected civilian population”.
Earlier reports from local activists said tanks were heading for the central Syrian city of Homs after anti-government protests were held there on Tuesday night.
Activists told the BBC that security forces had fanned out inside Homs, and that army tanks were heading towards the city.
Some 1,000 people chanted slogans in support of the southern city of Deraa, where troops rounded up hundreds of men in house-to-house raids.
On Tuesday, Syrian tanks and troops reportedly surrounded the coastal city of Baniyas.
Deraa, the southern city where the protests kicked off in mid-March, has been under siege since the weekend.
On Wednesday, there were fresh reports of gunfire and mass arrests there.
The army is still not allowing anyone into the city, and supplies of food and medicine are running low, residents say.
Communication lines are still down, but electricity has been restored in most areas, they add.
On Tuesday, US state department spokesman Mark Toner said the use of tanks, arbitrary arrests and power cuts in Deraa was “quite barbaric and amounts to the collective punishment of innocent civilians”.
The authorities say they have found rebel arms caches in Deraa. But the protesters insist their movement is entirely peaceful.
Despite the government crackdown, Syrians are continuing to protest in several cities and towns, including Damascus, where they appear to have come under live fire from police and plainclothes security forces.
Elsewhere in the capital, students at Damascus University staged a sit-in at the faculty of economics. They have issued a statement condemning “the massacres, killings and the arrests committed against peaceful demonstrators”.
Torture allegations
Also on Tuesday, a late-night demonstration by 1,000 students at Aleppo University – in Syria’s second city – was broken up by security forces using tear gas and firing live bullets, reliable sources say.
No injuries were reported, but dozens of students are being arrested, their mobile phones and laptops confiscated, the sources say.
More vigils and protests are planned in the coming days.
Amnesty International, and many of the protesters themselves, say the detainees are subjected to beatings and torture.
“The use of unwarranted lethal force, arbitrary detention and torture appear to be the desperate actions of a government that is intolerant of dissent and must be halted immediately,” Amnesty’s Philip Luther said.
Last week hundreds of members of Mr Assad’s ruling Baath Party resigned in protest at the crackdown.
European nations have called for sanctions against the regime of President Assad.
Washington has already tightened its sanctions against senior Syrian officials.
