Ancient Magog or modern day Russia…

One could argue that the lands of ancient Magog includes both Ukraine and Russia. This past week, Ukraine launched operation “Spiderweb”.

Russia has responded with multiple strikes throughout Ukraine. Multiple Ukrainian air bases have been destroyed. It appears Russia is not finished.

1 Timothy 1:9-11 understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.

Anti-Semitism in Boulder, Colorado: Mohamed Sabry Soliman, an Egyptian National, is in the United States with his family illegally. U.S. authorities have charged Soliman with a hate crime. And the courts have currently blocked an attempt to deport Soliman’s family.

Here is Soliman in his own words.

Paris, France

Los Angeles, California: As rioting and looting breaks out across the region, the mainstream press and the LAPD Chief are reporting on the “mostly peaceful protests”…

Mediterranean Sea, on the yacht Medleen with Greta Thunberg: She says she is on a humanitarian mission to provide aid and “to break Israel’s more than 17-year illegal and inhumane blockade of the Gaza Strip”.

Sovereignty decisively dominates Journalism again at the Belmont Stakes. As if there were any doubt…

This Week in Prophecy: Lawlessness; Magog’s Mess; Taiwan

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Ezekiel 38-39, Prophecy, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on July 2, 2023 by paulthepoke

Matthew 24:12 Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.

France: Day 5 of the riots and counting. France is on fire. 719 and counting have been arrested across France.

This has been the response to the death of Nahel Merzouk, a 17 year old of Algerian descent. He was shot by the police during a traffic stop. The incident occurred in the Parisian suburb of Nanterre. Nahel played rugby and enjoyed the rapper Jul.

Matthew 13:40-42 So just as the tares are gathered up and burned with fire, so shall it be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness, and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Magog and friends… Ezekiel 38:6b …from the uttermost parts of the north with all his hordes—many peoples are with you.

One week later, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko is talking out of both sides of his mouth.

“As we move along, we become more and more convinced that they (the weapons) must be stationed here, in Belarus, in a reliable place. I am certain that we will never have to use them while they are here. And no enemy will ever set foot on our land.” -President Alexander Lukashenko

Previously, Lukashenko indicated he would be willing to use nuclear weapons.

One thing is clear, Belarus does possess nuclear weapons and they are going to be receiving more from Russia by the end of 2023.

Isaiah 19:3-4 Brutal Egyptian Leader

Posted in Isaiah with tags , , , , , , , on February 22, 2011 by paulthepoke

“Then the spirit of the Egyptians will be demoralized within them; and I will confound their strategy, so that they will resort to idols and ghosts of the dead and to mediums and spiritists. Moreover, I will deliver the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel master, and a mighty king will rule over them,” declares the Lord GOD of hosts.

Verse 3: Look at the two verbs in the initial part of the verse. The Egyptian spirit is to be emptied and demoralized. The translation of “confound” does not tell the whole story. The idea communicated is intentional, intensive, and repeated action of swallowing their strategy. One could get the idea that the Egyptians will have many ideas and solutions to try to stop the civil war.  These ideas (political, economic, religious, etc.) will be repeatedly shot down by God. The Egyptian solutions to the civil war will not succeed because God directly acts. Eventually frustration sets in and the country turns to the occult, seeking the dead and intermediaries with the dead.

Verse 4: Egyptian leaders have not a good record of human rights whether it is their citizens or not. Observe the treatment of the Jewish people in Exodus, slave labor. Pharaoh eventually tried to run the Jews down and kill them but drowned in the Red Sea.

Hosni Mubarak’s record of civil rights was less than impressive. He was an oppressive leader toward his people. Political prisoners report horrors of torture and killings they witnessed.  The people had enough and he is no longer in power. To quote the 80’s rock band Cinderella, “You don’t know what you got, till it is gone.” There is a ruler who is coming and will be appointed, according to the Bible, by God. This guy will not be nice. Recent history of the Middle East tells us a more radical and fundamental leader is likely. Every time “free” elections are held, a terrorist group leader is elected overwhelmingly. What we do not know is 1) when will this leader be appointed or 2) if this current day event is the scenario in which he comes to power.

God will intentionally give (piel stem verb form in Hebrew) the Egyptian people this leader. In the verse, there are two adjectives that describe this leader. You can bet this leader will impose and use force on the population.

Qasheh: (translated cruel)This word can be defined as hard, cruel, severe, obstinate, difficult, fierce, intense, vehement, stubborn, stiff-necked, rigorous (of battle).

`Az: (translated mighty) This word can be defined as strong, mighty, fierce.

These first four verses of Isaiah 19 make one point over and over and over. God is controlling the action. It is observed in the language and grammar. This is a direct quote from God.

“Declares the Lord GOD of hosts.”
