Gog-Magog aligns with the enemy of Israel, Ezekiel is coming to pass.
End times.
Beauseant!
Right now there are specialists in Russia and vice versa, having close counsel on countering terrorism.
Check out the islamic sites for their fury over this.
=== Gog-Magog aligns with the enemy of Israel
When dabbling in endtimes prophecy about Israel, I trust you remember to distinguish between Israel (as children of Abraham yet practicing their faith) and the State of Israel.
Two totally different things.
Confusing the two only serves -- as planned -- the purposes of those who would triangulate the People of the Book.
I am quite aware of the prophecy in Ezk. 38 & 39. Spent a lot of time in the last 50 years or so in study and prayer about these events.
I think finally in the last couple of years I have a pretty good understanding of what is going to take place. Yes it is the next major prophetic event on God"s calender.
Is the stage being set. I think the answer is yes. Is it a separate event from and does it precede the Great Tribulation, also known as the time of Jacob's Trouble. Yes I believe it does, maybe by a period of time by as much as 20 years.
However my "so what" was refering to Joe's Russia is supporting the Arabs and the PLO with arms and money so they must be the Real power that controls these terrorists.
I was just saying that lots of nations are helping these people even the ones that are being attacked by them. The nations of Russia, France, Germany ,the EU and the US have all tried to use these countries as chess pieces against one another.
They prop these demented leaders up and try to use them as political and economic surrogate armies against each other. They make the same mistake that I think people like Joe make in that they think they can control these people. They don't understand that these people have and have had one goal only since the seventh century and that is complete world domination.
Nobody but nobody,is in control of Islam. If the nations of the world will forget old rivalries and open their eyes they will see that the allies they are funding are advancing taking land and killing the people that are suppling them with weapons and money.
Joe is right about one thing and that is the Islamic terrorists are the same in where ever you find them just different fractions of the same army.
They have the same goals, the same teacher, the same playbook and the same tactics. Just different names.
That is Ezekial 38 which does say Gog & Magog aline with the bands of Tubal. Russia and Arabs lands in modern historic times. The chapter says that Gog & Magog conjures up an "injurious scheme". It turns into a giant war with Israel and God intervenes and causes the invading armies skins to melt right off their flesh. The chapter says it takes Israel several months just to clean up all the dead bodies. It's a worthwile read, no doubt.
