Just to clarify, I see that Russia has started on a path that will lead to them attacking the US down the road and ultimately attacking Israel. This process could take 7 years, but yes, I see that what has started will not stop until we arrive in Israel according to Ezekiel 38. there is a lot of dispute over whether or not Ezekiel 38 refers to Armageddon, I don't think so because they use the scraps from that war for 7 years. I think Ezekiel 38 takes place before the tribulation and sets up the Antichrist to confirm the covenant with Israel.Thanks,,, so as for Gog/Magog you see this as appertaining to Ezekiel and then also from your post #639 where you quoted Revelation 17 you are seeing the current events as the fulfillment of both Ezekiel and Revelation 17? If so in Revelation 16 who do you see as the three foul spirits?
As for the 7 bowls in Revelation 16 why are you asking me? I have already made it clear that this is not my interest, I am focused on what happens prior to the start of the Tribulation. Many subscribe to the fact that the 7 seals play out over 7 years, 7 trumpets over 7 months and the 7 bowls over 7 days. The bowls of wrath are poured out during the great tribulation, by then all believers will be gone because we have not been appointed to wrath. Therefore I think these bowls take place more than 3 1/2 years after Ezekiel 38 and probably more like 6 years after.
But I believe it is what it says it is, some very nasty unclean spirits from the mouth of the false prophet.
