2 PETER 3:10-11
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

NUCLEAR WEAPONS WILL BE USED.
BUT HALF OF EARTHS POPULATION WILL LIVE.

ZECHARIAH 14:12-13
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.

EZEKIEL 20:47
47 And say to the forest of the south, Hear the word of the LORD; Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree: the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burned therein.

ZEPHANIAH 1:18
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.

MALACHI 4:1
1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

REVELATION 8:7

18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

India Tests Long-Range Nuclear-Capable Missile

Agni-3 can carry nuclear warhead, has range of 3,000 kilometers and will be able to hit targets deep inside China, Pakistan Indian army soldiers watch the display of an Agni-2 missile during the Army Day parade in New Delhi India has tested a sophisticated,long-range nuclear-capable missile that dramatically boosts the range of targets it could hit. Defense officials say the new Agni-3 missile was test-fired Sunday from an island in the eastern state of Orissa. The word Agni means fire in Hindi.

The missile, which can carry a nuclear warhead, has a range of three-thousand kilometers. Officials, who did not want to be named,said the test was successful. Uday Bhaskar, deputy head of the government-funded Institute of Defense Studies, says the Agni-3 will boost India's strategic capability.

The Agni test of today would serve to establish India's credibility,in terms of its missile systems, he said. So, to the extent that India is working toward a credible, minimum deterrent… I would interpret today's test as enhancing the credibility of India's delivery systems.India conducted nuclear tests in 1998, and has since carried out a series of missile tests to fine-tune its delivery systems for nuclear weapons.Its existing arsenal includes several short-range and medium-range missiles, capable of carrying both nuclear and conventional warheads.Many of the existing missiles can target Pakistani cities, while the Agni-3 will be able to hit targets deep inside China.

Since becoming independent in 1947, India has fought wars with Pakistan and China. But India's relations have warmed with Beijing in recent years, and tensions with Pakistan have abated, since they began a peace process two years ago.Defense analysts say the Angi-Three tests should not be seen as country-specific, but as part of India's overall defense capability.The Agni-3 missile test comes just days after North Korea sparked an international outcry by test-firing seven missiles.Bhaskar says he does not expect India's tests will provoke similar concern.It is important to see the characteristics we associate with countries, both in terms of the regional context and the global grid,so I would like to think that India's missile test would not be seen through the same filter as any other country,he noted.Analysts say New Delhi has established itself as what they call a responsible nuclear power that has no track record of proliferating nuclear technology.North Korea is considered a so-called rogue nation by the United States, and its nuclear and missile proliferation postures have been a source of concern for the wider international community.

DANIEL 7:23
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth,(or 7TH WORLD EMPIRE, EU) which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.(Trading blocks 10 I believe).

EU close to applying for observer status in SAARC New Delhi, July 9,
IRNA India-SAARC-EU Observer

The European Union (EU) will soon apply to the SAARC Secretariat for getting the observer status in the South Asian regional grouping. We are close to submitting our application for getting the observer status in SAARC, a UNI report said here quoting a senior EU official. He said the EU supported the SAARC process and was also monitoring developments with regard to the implementation of the South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA) Agreement in the region.

The official said there was immense scope for cooperation between SAARC and EU and steps would be initiated to deepen relations among member states of the two groupings once the EU was accorded the observer status. SAARC brings together the South Asian countries of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan and the Maldives. The grouping, in its 20 years of existence, has not made much progress because of the suspicion and bilateral disputes among member nations, especially India and Pakistan. At its last summit in Dhaka in November 2005, SAARC had decided to make Afghanistan the eighth member of the grouping. China and Japan have been accorded the observer status in the association and the United States and South Korea have also expressed their desire to be associated with it. The next SAARC Summit is scheduled to be held in New Delhi in January 2007.
