| The Strait of Hormuz |
UPDATED 11 February 2026: USS George H.W. Bush (CVN 77) CSG-10 has received a WARNORD: prepare to deploy to the Middle East. CSG-10 is currently in the Atlantic Ocean. A subsequent order to deploy will place the air and naval power of two carrier strike groups, and likely two or more fast attack submarines, in striking distance of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Iranian negotiators will also have one last opportunity to agree to the terms presented.
The Strait of Hormuz seen in the high-altitude image above has, as expected, been named by the Twelver regime as a target to be shut down to maritime traffic in the event of war. Communist China would affected the most. It remains to be determined what type of Twelver action would halt transit through the strait.
It should not be lost on any of the Bride of Christ the transition that has taken place. We're no longer looking forward on things eschatological, but rather we're focused with laser-like accuracy upon current events as they are the fulfillment of prophecy.
13 February 2026: Several media reporting this morning that the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) and CSG-12 have been ordered to redeploy back to the Middle East! This would leave the Bush and CSG-10 in the Western Atlantic Ocean.
This news, hopefully in error, was unexpected because the Ford has been deployed at sea since June 2025. However, considering the new 30-day deadline President Trump imposed just yesterday upon Iran this might be a very short-term deployment extension.
17 February 2025: As the saying goes, those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. So, here we go again. Last century "the West" negotiated with the Nazi's. Result: World War II. This century "the West" negotiates with Shi'a Twelvers hoping for a win-win and ignoring history.
There is no difference between the Nazi's of the 20th century and the Twelvers of the 21st century. Both were/are based on false ideologies of supremacism. Peaceful coexistence with such was impossible in the 1930-40's and remains so in the late 2020's. Now imagine the Twelver Shi'a possessing nuclear weaponry. Is it not a certainty that war will again result from another failed attempt to negotiate with the Nazi's of the 21st century?
There's not a direct reference to the Nazi's in Bible prophecy. Herein lies a distinct difference with a clearly stated prophecy concerning the Twelver regime ruling present-day Persia. This time there will be Divine intervention.
Final Update 23 February 2026: The media is chock full of postulations and supposed insider leaks about what President Trump is going to do in the next few days. Some of this is deliberate to keep the world guessing, but none of it matches precisely with Jeremiah's prophecy. Unknown are the ways such a war will affect the world. Eschatology Today interprets Jeremiah 49:34-39 as the ignition switch for a successive series of prophetic fulfillments. In anticipation this blog will now transition to the crux of Jesus' Olivet Discourse, i.e. The Signs of the end of the Age.
Marana'tha!
CSG-10 ETA likely mid-March. The current WARNORD to CSG-10 is "spin up" in preparation to deploy. The order to deploy will come shortly or be canceled. This could be intended to rattle the Twelvers, make them amenable to Trump's agenda. We'll soon see.
ReplyDeleteIn a post to his Truth Social account President Trump confirmed the WARNORD issued by the Pentagon. The WARNORD was issued at his direction, as will the actual deployment order.
ReplyDeletePresident Trump has today set a deadline for Iran to accept his terms.
ReplyDelete"Within the next month."
Counting 30 days from today puts us at 14 March.
The Bush CSG will get underway shortly.
I'm assuming Iran will either pretend to be negotiating to drag this out or flat refuse the terms before the 30 day deadline and if they do that I'd bet our first indicator they've done so is when missiles start flying
DeleteTo be true to their words the 12ers should not negotiate further, the US military pressure is suddenly double what it was the last time they sat down. The kinetics of Jeremiah 49:34-35, the breaking of their bow, will be a sudden and total shock, no al-mahdi can save them from the brute force that's coming.
ReplyDeleteTalk about ramping up the pressure! The Ford CSG has told yesterday their cruise is being extended and they're going back to the Middle East. This is a quickie as the crews were told they'd be back in home port in late April or early May. Sail to the ME, strike the 12er regime and go home. Trump is nothing if not mercurial.
ReplyDeleteAt some point during 2026, not exactly sure when, the Eschatology Today blog will be terminated and likely deleted.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you have your reasons my friend. Just let us have a chance to say thank you.
DeleteI agree Sean. If this isn't the year, I sure don't know what would be! Amen my brother. From your lips to the LORD Jesus ears!
DeleteWhy would you delete the Blog? I refer to it a lot, as even though I have learned a lot I have to revisit to gain more clarity.You have such knowledge of the scriptures and your military background gives you further insight.I really appreciate your work
DeleteBro Sean; Yes - ET is certainly 'on the radar' and would be one of the first 'targeted' after we are gone; along with other Christian / Bible sites. Bro. Steve
DeleteJmoll106,
DeleteNot necessary Bro, I know very well who and how many they are who appreciate what it has taken to keep ET going for this many years.
There are two types according to Blogger stats. There are the Nibblers and there are the Consumers. The 'bell curve' stats for 13-14 February reinforce this knowledge abundantly. I suspect the same nibbler/Consumer stats are the reason why so many prophecy bloggers have folded up shop in recent years. It takes near full-time effort, but of course the Spirit is always present to empower the forward movement.
It is for the true Consumers and the memory of dear GG5 (Great Granny) that Eschatology Today will continue, but perhaps in a slighly modified format - working on that! The "end" is near, but not yet, so I'll see this through.
While we await the Ford CSG to arrive in the CENTCOM AOR, things elsewhere are moving down The Prophetic Road To Revelation. This item caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteMagog's Expanding role in Libya and Southwards
The 2nd round of US-Twelver Regime discussions is scheduled for tomorrow in Geneva, Switzerland.
ReplyDeleteIf solid fruit results, it's a bad omen for the Iranian people.
If more of the same as in the 1st round is achieved, then the Iranian people may yet escape from the murderous, 7th Century Twelvers.
The "Elamites" will flee to all points on the globe.
Great Granny would have told you to pull up tight your boot strings and get er done, or see this thing through... along with the scripture to go along with that tone: )
ReplyDeleteJoe
True that!
DeleteForget about 14 March. The US is not waiting in particular for the Ford CSG to arrive on station, there's plenty of time for that. The wait is for Ramadan, which begins on 18 February and ends on 19 March.
ReplyDeleteHi Brother Sean........So WOULD there be a slight, like, ever so slight chance of things popping off before Ramadan or more of a possibility after?
DeleteBro. Frank
Just for clarification are you saying that the strike is possibly being held back in order to wait for the start of Ramadan?
Delete(If so)Do you think that Israel will be ok with that? Or do you think that Israel might strike before then since Trump is going the route of Let's Make A Deal?
1.) Strikes before Ramadan would have to occur in less than 48 hours.
Delete2.) DC anonymous sources are leaking to New York newspapers strikes would occur over a few weeks...
3.) There would have to be a total breakdown in Geneva tomorrow.
That's cutting it pretty close...
The Ramadan issue is looking today like just total disinfo. A genuine red herring.
ReplyDeleteSquadrons of F-22 Raptors are enroute to the ME stations. As this is now confirmed OSINT strikes are highly likely in coming days. Raptors, as the US' most capable fighters, simply do not sit around, they arrive and execute combat missions. They escort our Stealth bombers to their targets. Last June when the Raptors deployed only four days elapsed before they were on combat missions.
Standby...
The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) and CSG-12 are now in the US 6th AOR (Mediterranean Sea).
DeleteIn yet another instance of Magog preparing and being a guard for its military confederates, Russia and Iran will hold a joint fleet exercise in the Sea of Oman and northern Indian Ocean.
ReplyDeleteBesides the overtones from Ezekiel 38/39, this exercise is inherently dangerous with the US Fleet in very close proximity. The commander of the Iranian navy said yesterday his forces will confront the US Fleet in an echo of the Ayatollah who said US ships will end up on the bottom of the sea.
I cannot at this point resist quoting a John Wayne line from years ago: "Life is tough; it gets tougher if you're stupid."
Most observers are now opining about the inevitabilty of war against Iran by a US-Israel military alliance; that it will be total war instead of individual strikes and that it will break out without warning and within days.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the Four Winds brewing up to me...
DeleteThe warning is there, these observers just haven't been very observant
DeleteThe "Four Winds" Jeremiah speaks to evokes devastating events. Sounds about right.
DeleteThese observers do not have Jeremiah 49:34-39 as a point of benchmark point of reference, yet they still get the "big picture."
DeleteHigh pressure being applied by the Iranian Twelvers on their Hezbollah brethren in Lebanon to not sit out this time as they did last June. Israel is 100% prepared.
ReplyDeleteEyes up, watch for flying Doritos.
ReplyDeleteEliminating the ayatollah and his key underlings will not solve the Iran problem. But it will pave the way for the Persian people themselves to eradicate the Twelver's theological basis.
ReplyDeleteUnable to determine if the report of the UK denying US use of Fairford Air Base and Diego Garcia for strikes on the Twelver regime is accurate or true.
ReplyDeleteIt might be disinformation, or deception or political pay-back over Greenland. It is indicative of the widening US-Euro rift.
DeleteIn any case this won't stop the US from executing long-range air strike missions. The B2's can fly 36-hour missions from Whiteman AFB, B1's from Guam, and maybe even B-21 from Ellsworth AFB (wishful thinking prior to 2026 IOC designation).
The countdown clock will expire in a few days and/or hours.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts and prayers are with our Persian Christian brethren. They're having to endure a flesh'n'blood type of antichrist and his evil regime, which most of them were born into. They are treated as virtual ghosts, unless they are found praying or preaching in the Farsi language which is a criminal act.
ReplyDeleteMight they not think they are living in the tribulation? Might their steadfastness of faith in Christ Jesus be an all-powerful witness to their countrymen? I believe it is as I also believe the Holy Spirit is doing non-stop wonders and conversions. Marana'tha!
Amen, Sean. Every day I pray for them and the persecuted church living in danger zones all over the world. I ask God to send forth His Word and do/provide that which He has already said He does, and it will not be without fulfillment: e.g.
DeletePsalm 27:5
For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; in the secret place of His tent will He hide me; He will set me high upon a rock.
and Psalm 32:7
You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance.
Lord, send forth Your all sufficient grace today to sustain and empower us as You perfect Your power in our weakness, so that we, like Paul, can say we'd rather therefore glory in our weaknesses that Christ's power may be seen in us.
The IAF attacked Hezbollah HQ in Baalbek, Lebanon in a mass casualty strike that targeted leaders of the terrorits rocket forces. A dozen killed, twice that injured.
ReplyDeleteStreet protests against the 12er regime resumed today in Tehran and other locations. Injuries has resulted from clashes with regime forces.
ReplyDeleteActually the only thing that really matters in all of this is how the LORD God manifests events for His Glory so the many peoples of Iran will come to know the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
DeleteThe 12ers have a little less than 48 hours to deliver their final negotiation position to the US.
ReplyDeleteIF accepted the details will be finalized in Geneva on Friday.
IF rejected... oh well.
