Rev 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
Rev 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Rev 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
This event described in Rev 20 is the 5th trumpet
Rev 9:3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. Rev 9:16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
It’s the invasion of false teachers
Joe 2:4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. Joe 2:9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
Horses and Horsemen are false teachers that speak from their own carnal reasoning.
Isa 31:3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.
This is the Gog Magog war
Eze 38:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
Eze 38:4 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:
Eze 38:5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
The Gog Magog army is equipped with armor just as the army of the Lord is equipped with the full armor of God. The Gog Magog army does not have their loins girt with truth.
This is also called the northern army. (It’s not Russia like the Jesuit false doctrines would have us believe) The north is darkness deception.
H6828
צָפֹן צָפוֹן
tsâphôn tsâphôn
tsaw-fone’, tsaw-fone’
From H6845; properly hidden, that is, dark; used only of the north as a quarter (gloomy and unknown): – north (-ern, side, -ward, wind).
The false narrative is that the northern army is Russia and it invades Israel. False doctrine for the bottomless pit of the carnal mind. The Northern army are the false teacher that invade Israel, Israel is the house of God, the church.
God promises to restore the years the locust, northern army of false teachers have eaten.
Joe 2:25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
Another comment on Gog Magog, the land of unwalled villages is the apostate church, with no rule over their spirit:
Eze 38:11 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,
Psa_55:21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
Rev 9:2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
All this to show Gog Magog is the invasion of false teachers upon the house of God. The opening of the bottomless pit. The bottomless pit is mans carnal mind, the source of false doctrine.
The serpent scorpion false teachers, thier power is in their mouth (IE false doctrine)
Rev 9:19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
The fifth and sixth trumpet judgements are the first and second “woe”
Rev 8:13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
Why is this important? It ties everything together concerning the thousand years in Rev 20, establishing that we are in the Gog Magog war right now, how much worse can the false doctrine get? Knowing the remnant is not hurt (deceived) by this false doctrine
Rev 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
This information on the bottomless pit, the sealing of the spirit filled saint, not deceived by the serpents and scorpions, the Army of horses and horsemen clearly tied to Gog Magog and the woes shows us clearly we are right at the door.
Rev 11:14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
The elect make it past the second woe, they are not deceived. We are here right now, this is why it’s so important to understand this teaching and if the 5th and 6th trumpet has clearly sounded which is the voices of the 2 witness minsitry of saints, warning of all this deception, calling people out of Babylon, (Mystery Babylon) out of confusion, this can only lead to one conclusion, that the 7th trumpet is the only thing left.
The Seventh Trumpet
Rev 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Where is a millenial kingdom in this profound passage? Does it say the Kingdoms of our Lord and his Christ (the 144000, those with the Fathers name) shall reign for a thousand years? No it says for ever and ever.
The millenial kingdom is false doctrine it doesn’t fit. The 7th Trump is about to sound and it is clearly taught elsewhere in scripture
1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
1Co 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
Rom 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
Rom 8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Future Glory
Rom 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Rom 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Rom 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
Rom 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Rom 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
Rom 8:23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Be encouraged saints
1Jn_3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Rev_1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
