An article came out with a list of the top ten safest nations to be in should World War III breaks out. Are these the safest ten nations to be during the Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord? Dr. Thiel explains why the article considers these ten nations to be the safest, and then reads scriptures about what will happen during the time of the Great Tribulation and Day of the Lord which render those nations unfit to be considered so safe. Dr. Thiel mentions some scriptures mentioning safety and suggests where the safest physical place might be. He also refers people to the article "There is a Place of Safety for the Philadelphians. Why it May Be Petra" (URL: http://www.cogwriter.com/place.htm) if they want more scriptures pointing to the place God promises to protect His end time Philadelphian Christians.
