The War Of Gog & Magog: The Greatest Mass Of FIrepower In Human History
Pastor Joseph Chambers / Paw Creek Ministries
NEVER IN HUMAN HISTORY HAS AN ARMY EQUALED IN FIREPOWER AND MANPOWER AS WILL SOON MARCH TOWARD JERUSALEM. To begin to calculate the mass of soldiers and military equipment is overwhelming. We are talking of the possibility of 20 to 30 nations joined together and coming at Israel from all directions. I can hear the Generals saying, “We must have at least one hundred times the firepower of Israel to assure that not one Jew will be left alive.” They also will calculate that Israel’s fighting abilities are so great we must have overwhelming advantages. It will be called the “End of the World” by Media giants as this coalition of armies begin to assemble.
There is no doubt that the northern nation of Russia will be at the helm. “Josephus identified the offspring of Magog as the Scythians, a name used in antiquity for peoples north of the Black Sea. According to him, the Greeks called the ancient city of Scythia, Magogia.” (Wikipedia Encyclopedia) Please reread the data from this past Saturday clearly showing the connection of Russia to the Scythian people. Meshech and Tubal were the ancient people of the Georgians located on the northern shores of the Black Sea.“Georgians have traditions that they, and other Caucasus people as well as Armenians, share descent from Meshech, Georgian: Meskheti, Tubal”. (Wikipedia Encyclopedia) Add to this, Togarmah, which is unquestionably connected to Turkey and the northern leadership of this war is perfectly identified.
It’s amazing to discover that five of the key names in Ezekiel 38 are also found in Genesis Chapter ten. These nations were named by God’s perfect revelations over 4,000 years ago. Ezekiel made this prophecy during his captivity in Babylon approximately 2,600 years ago and we can find perfect connection in the archives of history. Not one verse of God’s Bible is questionable. Here is Moses’ statement by the Wisdom of the Ages. “Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood. The sons of Japheth; GOMER, and MAGOG, and Madai, and Javan, and TUBAL, and MESHECK, and Tiras. And the sons of GOMER; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and TOGARMAR.” (Genesis 10:1-3) (Names appearing in the Ezekiel text are all caps.)
The firepower of Russia alone is awesome and this event will call for their total commitment. Remember this text says that God will put a “hook in their jaws.” All restraints will be taken out of their minds. The Prophecy proclaims, “And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:…” Actually, there will be insanity in this entire commotion. Anger, determination, human arrogance, will be all mixed with a God-imposed “all or nothing” attitude. Here is a quote from the Federation of American Scientists. “According to the Federation of American Scientists, a renowned organization for assessing nuclear weapon stockpiles, Russia possesses the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction in the world. The organization also claims that Russia has 4,650 active nuclear warheads, while the U.S. has 2,468. In addition to nuclear weapons, Russia declared an arsenal of 39,967 tons of chemical weapons in 1997, of which 57% have been destroyed.” If the 57% were destroyed they still possess 22,781 tons of chemical death.
The world’s greatest hatred is reserved for the Jewish people. While Iran is the loudest voice, they are representative of a large proportion of mankind. Bible believing Christians are hatred almost as severely. The Ayatollah of Iran is the world’s spokesman for this hatred. “Calling Israel a danger to Islam, the conservative website Alef, with ties to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khomeini, said the opportunity must not be lost to remove “this corrupting material. It is a “jurisprudential justification” to kill all the Jews and annihilate Israel, and in that, the Islamic government of Iran must take the helm. The article, written by Alireza Forghani, an analyst and a strategy specialist in Khomeini’s camp, now is being run on most state-owned sites, including the Revolutionary Guards”. (Fars News Agency) The only way hatred can reach the level now visible is an evil power greater than men themselves.
It’s sad to know that the Democratic Convention in Charlotte had to railroad the Convention to replace the name of God and the reference to Jerusalem. John Bolton, America’s number one foreign policy expert, just released the following statement: “There is no way at this stage to prevent Iran from going nuclear without use of force. It is very unfortunate in my opinion, but I see no possibility that the present administration will use military force, and therefore it falls upon Israel. I think that even though the Administration says that containment is not it’s policy, it will become a policy the day after Iran possesses nuclear weapons.” The Bible describes this battle as clearly in “APOCALYPTIC” terms.
The Turkish Prime Minister, Recept Ayyip Erodogan, used this same word “APOCALYPSE” this week. The Prophecy of Ezekiel says “Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee. Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought: And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.” (Ezekiel 38:9-12)
Somehow I would love for this to transpire before the Rapture. We could have a multitude of souls coming to Christ when they see that God really means business. It is coming my friends!
We are preparing a notebook entitled, “THE WAR OF GOG AND MAGOG”. This will be a comprehensive study of this subject like I have always wanted for myself. Every nation involved will be identified with historic information. The many things coming from Iran, Egypt, Syria, Russia or Israel, etc. will be represented. There will be eight articles written to help explain the development as the study progresses. It is being done in color and will be between 125 and 150 pages. Every thing we do is fully guaranteed with our money back promise. We are here to bless not make money. The notebook will be sent immediately with the first stage (Approximately 60 pages) and additional pages to follow. (Notebook $29.95, Email without notebook cover $15.00) Call 1 800 338 7884 or 1 704 391 0588. Email us at [email protected].
Pure PROPAGANDA!
The political structure that is commonly called by the mis-leading biblical term “israel” is a Rothschild-creation of terror and genocide. Original “jews” are arabs – semites. Zionist Satanists wearing the “jewish” label as a veil have created and used the “holocaust” as a pretext to terrorize the rest of the world – especially the mid-eastern people.
Iran is a key-player in the SOLUTION of our world-problems, a leader on the road to WORLD-PEACE and has not attacked anyone in over 300 years – while the Vatican-UK-US-israhell-cabal has been waging wars and killing millions all around the world all along…
WAKE-UP-already!
Excellent analysis and presentation of the facts. Notice in the article above, he does not mention the Khazars who were where Georgia currently is located. It was much bigger but they were pagans that converted to Judaism in order to stop the attacks by both east and western countries because of the interference by the khazars of the silk route. They were told by both Catholics and Muslims to pick a religion either catholic or Muslim so the would have some sort of moral compass which they completely lacked. Well, these are the leaders of Israel and are not Jewish. You are so right. They are Khazars. further, they are pagans as well. They have no moral limitations to what they can and will do.
They also pay off Christian ministers to do their bidding for them. The real Jews had to seek asylum out of Israel because of the beatings they were getting for trying to protect their “sages” graves that the pagan khazars wanted to use to build pay for parking, parking lots. Nice, huh? Amazing.
round of applause for telling the truth…..
Iran has already threatened Israel and the US with nuclear annihilation. They also fund terrorist groups that murder Israeli civilians. If Iran is the answer I don’t want to know what the question is.
While the enemies of the humanity still draw breath, there can be no peace.
Come you Khazars, show me what passes for fury amongst your misbegotten kind!
“Trust in the all mighty Allah at the hour of battle.
Trust to him to intercede, and protect his warriors true as they deal death on alien soil.
Turn their seas to red with the blood of their slain.
Crush their hopes, their dreams
And turn their songs into cries of lamentation.”
Let us free humanity from satanic Khazars.
The blasphemy of the Pharisee Jews is such that only one solution is acceptable. Extermination. There can only be two sides in a fight – choose carefully, lest you and I find ourselves on different sides

>>>And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, <<<
This is where your whole argument falls down. Eretz Israel (The Land itself) is now pockmarked with … ahem … apartheid walls. If you went there, you couldn't get in or out of Gaza or Ramallah without going through bars, gates, metal detectors and being fully harassed by the IDF.
The idea (
) of all these entities coming up against the people there because they are at rest is totally laughable. Have you been to the Land lately to verify this ? The land is full of fear and nukes.
The Israelis would have to take those cement fences down [Separation Barriers, LOL] and start getting along with the Palestinians before they could be thought to be at rest. Let alone the actual Israel of God (See Gal. 4-6&Rev.2) and those who blaspheme God while saying they are judaic when they are not.
This whole thing works better if Gog and Magog were called the Synogogue of Satan (Turkic Scythia no less) as the judaics and their proselytes have spread throughout all those countries on the list. These work out to be the Zionist movement of the 19th century who began the push toward a "Jewish homeland" which at that time was a peaceful land where Christians, Muslims and Jews lived without rancor for hundreds of years.
Study to show yourself approved already.

There is not going to be any pre-tribulation “rapture.” That notion was developed by Protestant Bible commentators who took certain Scriptural passages out of context and misinterpreted them. Making matters worse, they drew those passages from bibles altered and abridged by Protestant heretics.
Actually, by the Scottish teenager Margaret McDonald, who in the 19th century had a dream that a pre-Tribulation rapture would occur. Her fantasy was picked up on and subsequently promulgated by JN Darby, the founder of the Plymouth Brethren.
It is abundantly clear that the resurrection of the dead saints, and their rapture to meet the Lord in the air, as declared by Paul, together with those of us who survive the Tribulation, will occur at the time of the Last Trump, which is blown as Christ returns to earth in the clouds of heaven and with His holy angels. This final event in the rulership of man over the earth occurs after the Tribulation period of 3.5 years, not before it.”The Daniel Timeline” video makes a very powerful case that this will occur on 3rd October 2016. Easy to mock, but very difficult, impossible even, to undermine.
So there is no pre-Tribulation rapture. This is an idea which only became fashionable during the last two centuries, and it is part of the great delusion which God has said that He would send.
“… We could have a multitude of souls coming to Christ when they see that God really means business. It is coming my friends!…”
This remark shows that the writer does not understand the true nature of Christianity. The Lord stated in John chapter 6 verse 44 that no-one can come to Him except the Father first draw him.
Christian belief is not about deciding for Christ; it is about being called, and then possibly chosen. We have nothing to do with either process. It is God’s work entirely. He seeks a very small number, not the “multitudes” mentioned in the quote; these few will rule over the earth and its people when the Lord returns. This group of people have heard and understood Christ’s constantly repeated message that He came to declare the Kingdom of Heaven. Kingdoms require some few individuals to rule over them; these are the only ones who are being sought. The Church is composed of precious few. Strait is the gate that leads to it, and few there be that find it. The very fact that most self-declared Christians attempt to worship their Creator on Sunday reveals how deluded they are. God has always said “Remember the Sabbath, to keep it holy”. It is the fourth Commandment, and as such can never be overturned, any more than “Thou shalt not kill”. Sunday is not the Lord’s Day, as so many believe: Christ was resurrected on the Sabbath day during the late afternoon, exactly three days after He died. Which was on the previous Wednesday, not Friday, as they believe. And “Good Friday ?” What was good about it ? The Lord’s Day is not Sunday, as most seem to believe, but a single day of wrath, aka The Day of the Lord, which is shortly to arrive, and which was foreseen by John in his vision, which we call the Apocalypse.
In addition, no-one can be a Christian and believe in or keep the festival of Easter. Easter is the immemorial festival of Ishtar, the Queen of Heaven, the original builder, with Nimrod, of the Tower of Babel. Thus several hundred million and more of those confessing Christ will be told “Depart from Me, you that work iniquity, I never knew you”.
There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Yes, your date setting is easy to mock, especially since you would not be held accountable.

It case it missed your attention, we don’t fight wars with massive sword wielding armies or use armoured heavy cavalry. That would be a recreation of Dark age/Medieval warfare, exactly as war fare would have been fought when the prophesies were written and meant.
Jerusalem is in Palestine, no such country as Israel, Israel was wiped off the face of Earth in 70CE by the Roman empire, exactly as describe as an apocalyse. Every last man, women, child, suckling babe was massacred, their livestock slaughtered, their homes and crops burnt and Jerusalem raised to the ground. In otherwords it already happend, and it’s not all about you.
Your theory is called Preterism, and it’s been answered, before. For the sake of reference, the date used is usually 69AD.
It’s not a theory but historical fact. The Roman empire wiped Israel off the face of Earth in 70CE for rebellion and insurrection. Christians use 69AD because 1, they are too stupid to remember there is no year zero between BCE and CE, and 2, they are still using out dated academically unacceptable Latin time references.
If you read……and comprehend ” Revelation” in the “Book of Life” America and Britain are
destined to lose!
Are you in the pay of the Zionist Internationale, or do you just do their dirty work for fun?
People seem to forget in all these things that Israel is a small place in the surrounded by its enemies. Jerusalem and the dome of the rock are there which rules out any form of nuclear weapon without the whole area being destroyed or rendered uninhabitable for 100+ years at least. The only way as being prepared by the IDF defence for many years is nerve gas or biological warfare. if pushed into a corner on the other hand Israel would use nuclear weapons against its enemies without hesitation. It probably has these weapons hidden in major countries of the world with deep cover agents. Were Israel to be destroyed or 1000’s of its people killed these agents would detonate a nuclear device/devices in the attacking countries capital or other major city without warning. So an attack on Israel would be suicide for the countries or country involved.

This is THE MOST authortative, one of a kind, in-depth examination of a planned event that has ultimately cost:
the lives more than a million people
destroyed the U.S. economy
created a fascist police state and
instituted a permanent state of war.
Get a load of this hypocrisy !

My dear friend it would be great if you knew what the Hebrew Scriptures say.
This battle will take place after the Messiah has set up His soon coming Kingdom.
Not any time soon.
Do you need proof of this statement?
http://www.yahweh.com
Remember what the prophets said “ASK AT ABLE” to get your answers.
Okie
You should be very careful of the Antichrist brokering a peace treaty, so that you don’t think he is the Messiah setting up his kingdom.
God will defend his people Israel. Those verses in Ezekiel will be literally fulfilled. Islam will be absolutely shattered by it.
“…For they are not Israel who are descended from Israel… ” (Romans 9:6)
The *Israel of God* are heirs with Abraham by faith in God. (Romans 9 & Gal. 4-6:16 & Hebrews 12)
These are not tied to the physical, literal land. It is with some difficulty that the Gog-Magog war can be squeezed into the role set forth in this article for the supposed destruction of Islam. These are the machinations of the people who want to obliterate those people — which is excusable according to Talmudic standards. But it does not coincide with Christian understanding and purpose. Authentic Christian faith does not shatter anyone — only egos.
The Gog-Magog Enterprise takes place in the latter times yet we have the problem of the apartheid walls. The literal land of Israel does not fit the description of unwalled villages.
May the peace of God be with all of us who seek the truth of the matter.

The Israel Ezekiel 38 is speaking of being protected are no the fake jews in the land today, ALL prophecies concerning the PEOPLE of Israel are speaking of the true Israelites scattered throughout the four corners of the earth, now ISRAEL the land will be flamed out, the Most High gonna clear it from the wickedness that’s going on there as we speak, then bring his people into the land and when the armies decide to march down on his people, the REAL Israelites that’s when Christ crack the sky and kill all of them… they know this prophecy, they can march to Israel all they want, it’ll be the last march they make in the valley of Jehosephat!
Eze 38:18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
Eze 38:19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
Eze 38:20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
Eze 38:21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
Eze 38:22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
Eze 38:23 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.
Yep, all the nations that has persecuted his people gonna know Christ is real and the FATHER in heaven is real on that day which is closer than you think. READ IT AND WEEP!!!
People all get worked up… The devil or evil force whatever it is you may believe in is wanting chaos … And we pathetic humans give in to it… Ask any man or woman want they want out of life.. You will get the same answer … Is it war killing NO ! It will be … I want a nice home were my kids are safe with enough food and comforts of life… Good friends of your lucky… GOD is a GOD of PEICE… He doesn’t need you to fight … He created everything…. You think he can’t squish us into oblivion… With a thought…. Stuff happens but don’t blame god for our ruining the earth…
If you could look into the future, you would know that we are living in the end times. Israel will not allow Iran to have nuclear weapons and they will have to attack soon. If the U.S., Russia, and China will be able to sit this out, we have a chance to continue on with our lives. Otherwise, the world is toast. The buttons being pushed will get out of hand.
Besides that the land is at peace, according to Ezekiel 38-39, this battle is waged with wooden weapons, not firepower.
I believe this war occurs after disarmament.
In Isaiah 17, Damascus ceases to be a city, overnight.
Is this the spectacle, which leads to the treaty of Daniel 9:27?
Attention, doomers, all of your books of doom were turned into marbles a long time ago but you hate your brothers and sisters which is why you still pursue these fantastical battles. And, in your own vainity, I have seen your kind repeatedly transfer the fear of your own death to the death of the world. Love your mother and you will love your brothers and sisters. Stop hating religions, because your body itself is the flag of all religious symbols. The house of God has many rooms – what gives you the right to hate some and think others to be the absolute truth? Be careful or you will end up in the fire if you do not learn to love your brothers and sisters – your soul will not be recycled. God is not mocked. For all things are one, and all religions are one, and all peoples are one. For all are of the earth and of the things of the earth, for all is spirit mixed with dirt and that spirit is the spirit of God. Stop kicking against the goads. Stop hating your brothers and sisters. There is no final warning. There is no book or books of doom. Everything is doomed. Death is both the seal of God and the promise of God. None of you in these religions even bother to read the texts, instead you use the words and emotion of the congregations to hate one another. Stop hating. Love your brothers and sisters and you will be saved. Call your mother. Repent. It’s that simple. And, no, this world will not end. Ever. You may become a flower or a snake in the garden of God or a spirit trapped in the fire of the Earth’s belly, but your energy and this world will not end. Ever. Stop thinking it will and that you can control it with hate. Hate will only make your next turn come faster, or throw you into the fire more quickly. Love is the answer. Start loving your brothers and sisters in your every day lives, and your eyes will be opened. Get with two or three people of different religions and talk about your religions. No religion is wrong, even the religion of Satan. They are all correct, for God is all things and in all things. I love you guys, but it hurts me to see this doom born from hate fomenting war. This war you speak of, I can promise, will not end in some sort of massive distruction of our souls, but, like all wars, it will end in the pollution of more hate – like all wars end.
To say you have love and faith, and expect people or life to be destroyed by what you call a savior, and what you really go by is instigation! Stop being so biased!
Try handling your own probs first!
Sounds like some Old, Reich Wing BS again touting Israel as this lonely innocent dove that do no harm!
Tell me where did the Founding All White Fathers endorsed Israel and Jerusalem? The People of the DNC voted against the God and the reference to Jerusalem.
Exercising their rights as Freedom Loving AMERICANS NOT ISRAELIS…GOT IT PARDNER?
Besides many right wing who happen to be rednecks to the core cannot stand JEWS! They claim Jews control the Media,Banking,Sports,Law,Hollywood,Medicine and the Federal Reserve systems in the USA AND THE WORLD OVER!
Nuclear War will happen, because dumb Humans do not get along and will not get along as long as we have the desire to take from one another instead of sharing with one another… No respect for the human rights of anyone but ourselves. Look at how we treat, animal,insect,oceanic and all other life we come in contact with!
The Planet is at risk because we cannot respect the well environmentally control Planet that Gaia ,has given us, Our government through it HAARP, program and the European Cern program is throwing this planet into ecological chaos…
Sounds of the Earth cracking thousands of feet beneath us are happening all over the Globe! while politician distract us from these events’..
The last major distraction shall be Nuclear War, God forbid the truth comes out that the USA, and it European Allies and Corporate interest were responsible for breaking the Planet Apart and sending it into a violent Pole Shift!
Chill, roll a spliff sit back & watch the show, cos nothing you or I think or say will stop the warmongers.
Very nice blog! keep on update the blog.Thanks for sharing the blog.

CHRISTIANS, WAKE UP!!!
You are so misinformed about the Bible and what “Judaism” really is! There are some other good comments which are helpful, but I am going to make this very simple:
–”Judaism” is NOT the faith of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!
–”Judaism” is the religion/legal system of the Pharisees, and the modern rabbinical leadership and the entire state of Israel are BASED ON THE TALMUD!
–Jesus was condemning the very thing you Christians are enabling…the enforcers/followers of the TALMUD! The “Jewish” leaders of today are the modern day “reincarnation” of the Pharisees, and they rule the “Jewish” people with an iron fist, and treat all non-Jews in Israel as scum…including Christians!!!
–”Judaism and Zionism are NOT of God!
–The orthodox rabbis and many political leaders also follow the Kabbalah…do you know what that is? You should really find out! (Don’t post your pious admonishments on here again until you EDUCATE YOURSELF as to what the Talmud and Kabbalah really are.)
–The “chosen people” are those who follow the Torah (not the Talmud) and accept His promised Messiah. Who could that be?
–Who are you to determine that the modern “State of Israel” is a legitimate “return” brought about by God? Even many “Jews” do not accept the 1948 “return” as from God, but as a political/military action only. “Jews” who follow the Torah only try to point out to the Talmudists/Zionists that the return won’t happen until their Messiah comes.
–There is so much more for you to learn about “Judaism” and Zionism. You won’t find it taught in most churches today. You are being deceived into enabling a satanic, evil system called Talmudism. How foolish can you be?
–I ask you to educate yourself about “Judaism” and Zionism. Read a pdf file of Elizabeth Dilling’s book on Judaism. Read everything you can by Ted Pike on his site truthtellersdot org. He does not promote hate or violence in any way, just DISCERNMENT….which is so lacking amongst the Christian community today.
—Christians, do you WANT to be deceived? If not, then you better start doing your research!!!
Why do so many “ungodly” heathen comment on Christian/Jewish articles?
What’s up with that?
Just askin’
Because ridiculing the ridiculous is fun.. eg, warmongering mass murdering Christianity for whining about how it’s the one being persecuted, is a ripe target for ridicule. Someone has to do it, it’s a fun job so I elect me.
Pix – “doing the job americans won’t do”.
Because once defamation is planted in the mind, the outcome for the defamed is eventually disrepute — the goal of the defamer. The defamer is usually trying to deflect attention away from their own crimes.
This process also bypasses all logical arguments on behalf of the truth — which everyone claims to have an interest in yet rarely come to the knowledge thereof — because truth is spiritual and infinite.
well……..

I am a professional archeologist. Many end times aficionados believe that Magog represents Russia and that Russia will soon come to invade Israel. However, the ancient Assyrians had dealings with Magog, which was also called Lydia, and their Court records clearly identify Magog and it is not Russia. For decades Christians have been deceived and have been unwittingly deceiving others about who is to be involved in the prophesied invasion of Israel. Russia has absolutely nothing to do with Magog and being the nation that will lead an invasion of Israel.
The Assyrian Royal Court dealt with each of these nations directly about 100 years before Ezekiel wrote, and their records are reliable, clear and detailed. These are the same records that are referred to in Ezra 4:15 and the same records used to verify the historical events written about in scripture from circa 800 B.C. to 400 B.C. These records represent the primary source on this subject as opposed to secondary sources which are often not based on facts and very often the product of mischief, bias or lack of study.
Any reference to Josephus is of no avail because historians and archeologists know from a multitude of written records, that the Greeks (such as Herodotus) did not call Magog the Scythians. All of our earliest copies of Josephus come from eleventh century Monks and the passage that is often referred to is clearly a forgery for several reasons obvious to historians and archeologists who study the ancient Near East. Please consider taking the time to read my report Debunking the Russia/War of Gog and Magog Myth on this important subject that recently appeared in the Christian Post Blogs on March 15, 2012.The link is http://blogs.christianpost.com/guest-views/debunking-the-russia-war-of-gog-and-magog-myth-8754/#more.
