Last week we talked about the Psalms 83 Battle.

This will precede the Gog-Magog battle we will talk about today.

Events going on in today in Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan could be leading to that war...

The Gog/Magog WarTimeline(Ezekiel 36-39)

Ezekiel 36:24: “I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own

Land.”

It is clear that this Regathering is initially with Israel in unbelief - 1917

Thus Ezekiel 37 gives the same sequence:

(1) a Regathering of the scattered dead bones of Israel (in unbelief).

(2) a spiritual Regeneration, that takes place later (after the Abomination).

Ezekiel 38:8,12: “In the latter years, you (the invading armies) will come into the Land of

those brought back from the sword and gathered from many peoples on the

mountains of ISRAEL, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the

nations, and now all of them dwell safely (securely).... against a

people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in

the midst of the Land “

against GOG, of the Land of MAGOG, the Prince of ROSH, MESHECH, and TUBAL, and prophesy against him, and say, “Thus

says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the Prince of ROSH, MESHECH, and

TUBAL.

splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them

handling swords. PERSIA, CUSH, and LIBYA are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; GOMER and all its

Remember – the Psalms 83 War will be the catalyst that draws Russia down into the battle…

Syria is also threatening Israel and supporting the terrorists who are waging Jihad on them.

Amos 1:3-5 States that Syria will come against Israel four times, and then will be made desolate.

These occurred in:1948 (1st) 1967(2nd) 1973(3rd) and the

4th appears that it could happen at any time!Damascus is the capital of Syria. It is the oldest perpetual

city in the world! It is over 5000 years old!

Is. 17:1 States that Damascus will be taken away from being a city and become a ruinous heap - this has not happened yet,

but will very soon!!Isa 17:3 "The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim, And sovereignty from Damascus And the remnant of Aram; They will be like the glory of the sons of

Israel," Declares the LORD of hosts.

In 1973, Israel came with 20 kilometers of Damascus - Russia stepped in and informed the world that if they continue, it will

be world war three. If Israel had destroyed Damascus then, this prophecy could not have been fulfilled!

Additionally, Russia is backing Damascus - when Damascus attacks Israel again, it will be destroyed, and it will cause the

prophecies in Ez. 38 and 39 to be fulfilled - Russia, the bear of the north along with Muslim nations will be forced to attack Israel, but God will intervene!

Zechariah 12:1-3: “Thus says the Lord who stretches out the heavens lays the foundation of the earth and

forms the spirit of man within him: Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against

Judah and Jerusalem.

And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who

would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against

it.”

Genesis 10:2-5: “The sons of JAPHETH were GOMER, MAGOG, Madai, Javan, TUBAL,

MESCHECH, and TIRAS (RAS). The sons of GOMER were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and TOGMARAH. The sons of Javan were

Elishah, TARSHISH, Kittim, and Dodanim. From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands,

everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.”

GOG comes from “the Land of MAGOG”, and is “the princeof ROSH, MESHECH, and TUBAL” (Ezekiel 38:2,3).

MAGOG. The first century Roman historian Josephus said the

"Magogites" were the peoples whom the Greeks called "Scythians", a fierce

civilisation that settled north of the Baltic Sea in what is now Russia and the now mostly Islamic republics of

the former USSR, possibly also including TURKEY.

The Greek Romantic Account of Alexander the Great’s Exploits

According to the Romance, Alexander came to a northern land devastated by incursions from barbarian peoples, including Gog and Magog. Alexander defends the land by constructing the Gates of Alexander, an immense wall between two mountains that will stop the invaders until the end times. In the Romance, these gates are built between two mountains in the Caucasus called the "Breasts of the World"; this has been taken as a reference to the historical "Caspian Gates" in

Derbent, Russia. Another frequently suggested candidate is the wall at the Darial Gorge in Georgia, also in the Caucasus.

ROSH. Because ROSH means CHIEF in Hebrew, some translations call him: ‘the

Chief Prince’ (v2,3), rather than ‘the Prince of Rosh.’

However the ‘Rus’ were well known people, and Gesenius says that these are undoubtedly the Russian people, so it is

better and more natural to translate it: ‘the Prince of Rosh.’

Other members of this coalition are GOMER (the ancient Cimmerians in

present day TURKEY) and TOGARMAH (ancient ARMENIA which is mostly in

Turkey today) - v6.

So TURKEY will definitely be a major part of this Coalition led by RUSSIA!

“From the FAR NORTH” (Ezekiel 38:6). “You will come from your place out of the FAR NORTH’

(38:15). “I will turn you around and lead you on, bringing you up from the FAR NORTH, and bring you against the mountains of Israel”

(Ezekiel 39:2).

(1) Significantly the first (main) nation mentioned with RUSSIA is

PERSIA = IRAN.

(2) CUSH was the area south of Egypt, now called SUDAN, also a fundamentalist Islamic State, very

burn the weapons, both the shields and bucklers, the bows and arrows, the javelins and spears; and they will make fires with

them for 7 YEARS. They will not take wood from the field nor cut down any from the

forests, because they will make fires with the weapons; and they will plunder those who

plundered them, and pillage those who pillaged them.”

This means it should occur prior to the Antichrist confirming a treaty with Israel for 7

years. So, the next two events could be:

1. Psalms 83 War – Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria +

2. The Gog Magog Ware – Russia, Turkey, Iran, +
