Jet delay adds to China threat

Prophecy Sign:  The emergence of China, (and other Asian nations), as both economic and military powers at the end-times.

Bible prophecy tells us that during the Tribulation, a power from the East, (Kings of the East), will march on the Holy Land with an army of some 200 million soldiers.  Presently the nations of China and India have a combined population of some 2.5 billion people, and could quite conceivably muster up enough able bodied men to field and this army of 200 million.

There have been many articles in recent weeks and months that show the growing super power status that is the nation of China.  To the point where China will surpass America as the biggest economy on the planet in a few years, and her military build-up is causing great concern for American officials.

The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. Revelation 16:12 NIV

It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”  And the four angels who had been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind. The number of the mounted troops was twice ten thousand times ten thousand. I heard their number. Revelation 9:14-16 NIV

From the article:

The threat from Chinese advanced weapons, including new stealth fighters and ballistic missiles, dominated concerns expressed by senior military officers at a Senate hearing this week on the military impact of delays and problems with the new fifth-generation F-35 jet. Two senior officers in charge of U.S. air power voiced increasing worries that U.S. forces will not be prepared for a future conflict with China, during a hearing of the Senate Armed Services airland subcommittee on Tuesday.
