Your question:

What is the significance of the seven dams in Turkey? And, the Red Heifer? These are 2 questions we are researching for our Sunday School class. Thank you for your help.

 My answer:

Hi,
Thanks for the e-mail.

You said: What is the significance of the seven dams in Turkey?

My response: The most common position on these dams is that they will be used to dry up the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in order for the kings of the east to cross enroute to the plains of Megiddo. All though the dams are not mentioned in Bible prophecy they are capable of almost eliminating the flow of water in those two great rivers. This is Biblically sound and probably will be the means by which the prophecy in Revelation 16:12-14 will be fulfilled. On the eschatalogical timeline this will be an event that will happen very close to the last day.

You said: And, the Red Heifer?

My response: I have a number of requests for information about the red heifer. I wrote about the red heifer in my e-newsletter, the Daily WATCH, click this link to read it: http://lastday.info/watchv2i67.html

The significance of the red heifer is not its sacrifice but its ashes after burning it in sacrifice. The ashes, mixed with water, are used as the waters of cleansing. This water is needed to purify the new temple and its implements. That is the main significance of the red heifer and its need to be declared kosher under Talmudic law. All that is left is to actually build the temple and they already have the cornerstones standing by to be put into place.

I hope this helps if not let me know.

In the service of LORD Jesus,
