And when the thousand years are expired,... Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth,.... Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea."

Hummm....according to this it looks like 'the final war' is AFTER the thousand years. But it is my understanding Christ returns to earth to the mount of olives in the midst of that war...THEN the thousand years follows this.

It does seem there are two wars.....one where Russia and it's hoards are destroyed....and then perhaps this written of here.

Been awhile since I've looked or discussed these passages. Might be I'm just forgetting! Ha!

The way I understand Scripture, first it will be the Psalm 83 war, involving the countries immediately surrounding Israel. The outcome of this war will be determined by Israel’s great and mighty army, the IDF I reckon. Then, when Israel is living in peace, it will be the Eze. 38 war, involving nations not immediately surrounding Israel and won by divine intervention. Both wars will be followed by the Tribulation, at the end of which there will be a number of battles all included in the “Day of Almighty God” war. Some of these battles will take place at Edom, Armageddon and Jerusalem. It is then that Jesus comes and defeats Anti Christ and his troops. The Millenium follows and, after that, the final rebellion. So that’s at least 4 wars!
