After Hamas is destroyed, Israel will have peace for a time

[Alfred Persson]

The Gog prophecy has two fulfillments, one in the end time, the other at the end of Christ's millennial kingdom. In both scenarios, Israel is at peace with her neighbors, which means Israel will have success. Hamas will be destroyed, and the Middle East will be changed for the better. Perhaps the Abraham Accords will be enacted. But that only paves the way for the Antichrist Adonikam to move his headquarters, from Europe to Israel:

8 "After many days you will be summoned; in the latter years you will come into the land that is restored from the sword, whose inhabitants have been gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel which had been a continual waste; but its people were brought out from the nations, and they are living securely, all of them.
9 "You will go up, you will come like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, and many peoples with you."
10 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "It will come about on that day, that thoughts will come into your mind and you will devise an evil plan,
11 and you will say, 'I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will go against those who are at rest, that live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates,
12 to capture spoil and to seize plunder, to turn your hand against the waste places which are now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the nations, who have acquired cattle and goods, who live at the center of the world.'
13 "Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will say to you, 'Have you come to capture spoil? Have you assembled your company to seize plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to capture great spoil?'"'
14 "Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "On that day when My people Israel are living securely, will you not know it?
15 "You will come from your place out of the remote parts of the north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly and a mighty army;
16 and you will come up against My people Israel like a cloud to cover the land. It shall come about in the last days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me when I am sanctified through you before their eyes, O Gog."
17 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Are you the one of whom I spoke in former days through My servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days for many years that I would bring you against them?
18 "It will come about on that day, when Gog comes against the land of Israel," declares the Lord GOD, "that My fury will mount up in My anger.
19 "In My zeal and in My blazing wrath I declare that on that day there will surely be a great earthquake in the land of Israel.
20 "The fish of the sea, the birds of the heavens, the beasts of the field, all the creeping things that creep on the earth, and all the men who are on the face of the earth will shake at My presence; the mountains also will be thrown down, the steep pathways will collapse and every wall will fall to the ground.
21 "I will call for a sword against him on all My mountains," declares the Lord GOD. "Every man's sword will be against his brother.
22 "With pestilence and with blood I will enter into judgment with him; and I will rain on him and on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, a torrential rain, with hailstones, fire and brimstone.
23 "I will magnify Myself, sanctify Myself, and make Myself known in the sight of many nations; and they will know that I am the LORD."'
(Ezek. 38:8-23 NAU)

The End is clearly near. The forerunners of the antichrist, woke progressives and apostate Christians are gaining political control. Persecution of Christians has just begun, and it will be spear headed by the apostates.

Many interpreters incorrectly identify the End Time mockers as "unbelievers", when in fact they are "former believers" who now embrace Ancient Alien Theory and the Overlords and the sign and wonder working "man of sin, son of destruction" false Christ Chancellor Adonikam, of the Revived Grecian Roman Empire:

But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. (2 Pet. 2:1 NKJ)

1 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder),
2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior,
3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts,
4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."
5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, (2 Pet. 3:1-5 NKJ)


18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.
(1 Jn. 2:18-19 NKJ)

How can military force defeat an idea?

Could the British army defeated the idea of independence in the American War of Independence?

I don't support hamam, but I do recognise the stupidity of brute forcs trying to destroy an idea.

Justice has to work two ways and there has to be recognition of the other sides needs and desires.
Unfortunately hamam does not recognise Israels right to exist, just as Israel doesn't recognise the Palestinians needs.

Hello Alfred Persson.
I believe the two Gog wars are the same except one is from mankinds view, or an earthly view and one is the way God sees, or a heavenly view..
He's not coming back to teach Gentiles as He did that 2000+ years ago. He won't be coming to bring peace to everyone on earth as His peace He gives only to believers.
Theologians have included false perceptions due to including misundrrstandings of what Messiah will do when He comes.

I'm a pre-millennialist, believer in the 1000 year reign of Christ on earth, otherwise I might share your opinion.

Ezekeil's wording allows for a dual fulfillment, but there are aspects indicate these are different.

In Ezekiel, Gog and Magog has a number of countries with it:

2 "Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 "and say,`Thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
4 "I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.
5 "Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 "Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops-- many people are with you. (Ezek. 38:2-6 NKJ)

But in Revelation those with Gog and Magog are from the four corners of the earth:

7 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison
8 and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea.
(Rev. 20:7-8 NKJ)

Logically, these are separate events perhaps involving many of the same people, or same kind of people.

I agree, the hatred by extremist Islam will continue without Hamas, but Gaza could be pacified by ridding it of Hamas. There are reports the people are angry with Hamas, tired of endless war....this could be built upon.

But Scripture depicts Israel as at peace with her neighbors in the End Time, when the Antichrist makes his headquarters in Jerusalem:

8 "After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely. (Ezek. 38:8 NKJ)

 

[Who Me]

Gaza could be pacified

Pacified or subjugated? Pacified implies establishing peace through justice.
What is justice for the average Palestinian?

ridding it of Hamas.

What political party offers the Palestinians peace, justice and a homeland?
Would Israel let such a party exist, they opposed the pla letting hamas gain power.

Israel was right to oppose both the PA and Hamas. There is no party that is for peaceful coexistence with Israel. I think the Israelis would welcome a political party that did, as would the rest of the world.

The use of God and Magog is used to depict, symbolically, the powers of evil that have always been and always will be in conflict with the kingdom of God until the final triumph of God. Hamas or Isis could find a place as depiction of the enemies of God, but it is the use of Gog and Magog as a symbol much more encompassing than Islam or terrorism by Islam itself. Gog and Magog are used symbolically for the nations of the wicked assembled by Satan after the one thousand years to attack the New Jerusalem. There the wicked host is destroyed by God who sends fire out of heaven to consume them.

I've tried to be sympathetic, but find it impossible. They elected terrorists in 2006, and everyone wanted martyrdom. Instead of transforming Gaza into "club Med" with the BILLIONS they received, they made an underground network of terror. Also, everything the Jews left behind (modern farms, etc), they trashed because it had "Jew smell". Literally impoverishing themselves.

Israel forcibly removed Jewish settlers from Gaza and the PLA was supposed to make peace, instead they opted for terror.

If it were me, I'd relocate them all to Iran. Iran needs more terrorists. Its good to have them all in one place.

And yes, I keep asking God for forgiveness about this, save one thing.

I pray "Hallowed be your Name", that the nations know the God of Israel exist:

17 "And as for you, son of man, thus says the Lord GOD,`Speak to every sort of bird and to every beast of the field: "Assemble yourselves and come; Gather together from all sides to My sacrificial meal Which I am sacrificing for you, A great sacrificial meal on the mountains of Israel, That you may eat flesh and drink blood.
18 You shall eat the flesh of the mighty, Drink the blood of the princes of the earth, Of rams and lambs, Of goats and bulls, All of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 You shall eat fat till you are full, And drink blood till you are drunk, At My sacrificial meal Which I am sacrificing for you.
20 You shall be filled at My table With horses and riders, With mighty men And with all the men of war," says the Lord GOD.
21 "I will set My glory among the nations; all the nations shall see My judgment which I have executed, and My hand which I have laid on them.
22 "So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day forward.
23 "The Gentiles shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity; because they were unfaithful to Me, therefore I hid My face from them. I gave them into the hand of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword.
24 "According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions I have dealt with them, and hidden My face from them."'
25 "Therefore thus says the Lord GOD:`Now I will bring back the captives of Jacob, and have mercy on the whole house of Israel; and I will be jealous for My holy name-- (Ezek. 39:17-25 NKJ)

I apologize, completely misread your post. I take prophecy literally, the name Gog and Magog may be used symbolically, but literally refers to the People of the North, including Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others in the Middle East and North Africa, Cush (possibly Sudan or Ethiopia), and Put (possibly Libya).

We do see many of those nations becoming allies lately.

there will be no peace in Israel until Gods chosen people return to their homeland and this has started with a handful doing so but a long long way to go as yet.

 

[Alfred Persson]

there will be no peace in Israel until Gods chosen people return to their homeland and this has started with a handful doing so but a long long way to go as yet.

True peace waits until Christ's Second Coming. Gog and Magog will die on the mountains of Israel, and the Beast his armies at Armageddon.

11 The people shall dwell in it; And no longer shall there be utter destruction, But Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
12 And this shall be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths. (Zech. 14:11-12 NKJ)

11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.
12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.
13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.
15 Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven, "Come and gather together for the supper of the great God,
18 "that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, both small and great."
19 And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.
20 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the rest were killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. And all the birds were filled with their flesh.

Israel's return is a fulfilled prophecy. That doesn't mean that Israel is perfect and incapable of sin. Hamas, however, is giving them little choice. Hamas embedded themselves in residential and other civilian areas to protect themselves and to maximize the propaganda value of dead civilians.

I was premil too bro for most of my wallk with our Lord, but the human race, all of us, have been deceived by Gods' Satan.
Two different wars which both include everyone on earth separated by 1000 years?
I never really studied the Ezekuel passages about the end, because there is no way to interpret Ezekiel that way if Christ is returning as the New Testament plainly tells us.
Let's just agree that he Ezekiel is describing wars between God and Satan and that the Bible describes wars such as this from the beginning to the end.

 

[JT4444]

The Second Coming will be seen by all. Every prophecy about the end times must be fulfilled before Christ returns. That is clear from Scripture.

Since all prophecies were not fulfilled by 70 AD and no one saw the secret Second Coming that partial preterists believe in, we should reject their views as apostate nonsense.

Let's just agree that he Ezekiel is describing wars between God and Satan and that the Bible describes wars such as this from the beginning to the end.

When Christ Triumphant enters Jerusalem, He first judges the Sheep and Goats of Christendom, those who hadn't committed to Christ but were nominally Christians. (Christians are seated with Christ, "His Brethren"). Then with the goats, all who caused stumbling, the wicked still alive after Armageddon, are cast into Gehnna Fire.

That leaves billions of humans who were not wicked, or saved. They enter Christ's millennial Kingdom, and repopulate the earth. The Church are kings and priests ruling with Christ.

They don't age, but are not given resurrection bodies with eternal life. Many remain unsaved, including their children.


After a thousand years, the earth is tested once again, Satan is released from his prison and all who join this final rebellion are consumed by fire. Satan then cast into the lake of fire.

Then the final judgment of mankind.

That's why there are two wars.
