The
Gog and Magog of Rev.
20:7-8 are gathered
from the nations which
are in the 4 corners
of the Earth which are
all the nations while
those on horses in Ez.
38:1-6 only come from
Gog, in the land of
Magog, Persia,
Ethiopia, Libya,
Gomer, and the house
of Togarmah in the
north quarters on
horses (Ez. 38:15). If
the Gog and Magog of
Rev. 20:7-8 are the
same Gog and Magog of
Ezekiel 38:2 who
travel on horses, it
would also take a long
time for them to
arrive at Jerusalem
while travelling on
land by horses and by
sea to arrive from the
nations which are in
the 4 corners of the
Earth unless they came
by a more modern means
of transportation
which could be created
during Jesus' 1,000
year reign on Earth.
Also don't forget that
all the nations are
which are left
required to go up to
Jerusalem to worship
the King, the Lord of
hosts and to celebrate
the Feast of
Tabernacles every year
(Zech. 14:16), and
they all won't be
riding horses to get
there during Jesus'
1,000 yr. reign on
Earth.
You
also stated the
following answer to
Gino's question below:
Gino
asked "how long
the little season
might be?"
And "Is there any
possibility that
it could
be at least
seven years,
when they
could burn the
weapons?"
"Sure,
it is a
possibility.
And that would
'take care' of my
concerns for
Ezekiel 39 and the
Gog
and Magog War
occurring
after the
thousand
years.
It does seem
very odd that
the
Lord
would end that
war with "Thus
will I magnify
myself and
sanctify
myself; and I
will be known
in the eyes of
many nations,
and they shall
know that I am
the
Lord."
Ezekiel 38:23
I just can't
see THAT going
into the
Tribulation
period with
the AC et
al.
Sounds like a
good ending
for the
Revelation's
Gog and Magog
war."
If you
continue reading
from the above
Bible verse to
Ezekiel 39:22, it
says,
"So the
house of
Israel shall
know that I am the
LORD their
God from that day
and forward" which
happens after the
Gog-Magog invasion
described in
Ez.
38 & 39. It
won't take
Israel 1,000
years to know
the Lord during
His
reign
on Earth and all
the nations as
well because
according to
Zechariah 14:16,
the Lord says,
"And it shall
come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of
tabernacles." So
the house of
Israel and all
the nations of
the worldwill have 1,000
years to know
the Lord before
Satan is
released from
the bottomless
pit to gather
all the nations
at the 4 corners
of the Earth,
Gog- and Magog,
to bring them to
battle (Rev.
20:7-10) when
they surround
the camp of the
Saints and the
beloved city of
Jerusalem. And
there really
isn't a battle
because the Lord
sends a fire
down from heaven
that devours
them. In Ezekiel
38:21-23 Gog
& Magog war,
the Lord causes
every man's
sword to be
against his
brother. He then
rains fire and
brimstone down
on them. Then
according to
Ezekiel 39:2 the
Lord turns them
back and leaves
a sixth part of
them.
Jeremiah
24:7, "And
I will give them an
heart to
know me, that I am the
LORD: and
they shall be my people, and
I will
be their God: for they
shall return unto
me with their whole heart."
Jeremiah
31:31-34, "Behold, the
days come, saith the
LORD, that
I will make a new covenant with the
house of
Israel, and
with the
house of
Judah: Not according
to the
covenant that I
made with their
fathers in
the day that I
took them by
the hand to
bring them out
of the land of
Egypt; which my
covenant they brake, although
I was
an husband unto
them, saith the
LORD: But this shall
be the
covenant that I
will make with the
house of
Israel; After those days, saith the
LORD, I
will put my
law in
their inward
parts, and write
it in their
hearts; and
will be their God, and
they shall
be my people. And they
shall teach no more every
man his
neighbour, and
every man his
brother, saying, Know the
LORD: for they shall all know me, from
the least of
them unto the
greatest of
them, saith the
LORD: for I
will forgive their
iniquity, and I
will remember their
sin no more."
In
regard to Gino's
letter at
RE:
Chance:
04.02.26: adding
more questions asking
how long a "little
season might be,
in my opinion the
"little season"
could be 3 1/2
years that Satan
is let loose to
deceive the
nations before he
gathers them from
the corners of the
Earth to take them
down to Jerusalem
to battle. If
the "little season"
that Satan is let
loose from the
bottomless pit in
Rev. 20:3 is the
same amount of time
that the martyrs
spend resting under
the altar for a
"little season" in
Rev. 6:11 until
their fellow
servants also and
their brethren that
should be killed as
they were, should be
fulfilled, it looks
like the martyrs
will be resting
under the altar for
a "little season" of
3 1/2 years when
those people not
worshipping the
image of the beast
are killed and
martyred for their
faith which takes
place during the
Antichrist's (the
beast) 42 month
reign.
