Islamic-Russian twisted view of Gog and Magog

According to Islamic scholar, Imran Hosein, when speaking on a Russian website, told his Russian audience (in English) that “Gog and Magog” are apparently Western Israel-supporting Christians, and “antichrist” apparently has come through the British Empire, USA and Israel.


According to the Bible, Gog the leader of Magog, is to come from the north, and fits in with Russia. As for “antichrist”, that certainly is not something in English-speaking Christianity, though there are obviously those who depart from the faith who are antichrists.

These accusations about “Gog and Magog” and “antichrist” from the Islamic-Russian view are nothing more than an attempt to identify God’s true people as the enemy.

We can take comfort from Matthew chapter 5.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Truth is plainly written in the Scripture. It states, “he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.” (Daniel 11:30b). We are seeing all the things come into place in time and space that will fulfil this prophecy.

Attacking the greatness of Protestant English-speaking America with all kinds of bizarre conspiracy theories while not presenting the Gospel as the true remedy to rampant liberalism, infidelity and left-wing error is a big problem.

Of course, Russia is setting its greedy eyes upon Turkey, and the West can still resist the Russian bear at the moment… but for how long will there be Britons true, and the guns, men and money of the Americans too?

Our national identity and outlook of the world must be firmly based upon Scripture. While extremism may be on the ascent in Russia, and spreading fear within through internet propagandists, we can safely assert the correct interpretation of world events, and have hope through the Holy Ghost.

Alex Jones says that we are in a civil war, an information war. Dugin agrees.

But this war is really about whether the Scripture is true in what it says. Did Ezekiel and Daniel long ages ago really get it all right? do we really have every word of the prophets exactly accurately here in English that we can rely upon? is our believing-based interpretation correct?

The answer is yes, because very soon, certain nations are going to be agreeing with the true believers on this: “Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?” (Eze. 38:17).

That question cannot be asked without believers publicising the truth, accuracy and content of Scripture. The Scripture then is the most powerful weapon, a spiritual information sword, that can cut down any demagogue. Remember Alexander the not so Great after all.

Aleksandr Dugin questions truth

Aleksandr Dugin, Russian political scientist, philosopher and upcoming voice of antichristianism, made the following points in a BBC interview:

1. Truth is relative.
2. If we insist that we have absolute truth, he would say that his truth is 100% true.
3. There are no facts, only interpretation.

This is a highly dangerous philosophy which stems from Enlightenment thinking, just as Thomas Paine insisted that his own mind was his own religion, now Dugin is giving the ultimate end of all modernistic philosophy which is that there is no universal, objective truth, just individual belief. In other words, what he says and believes is true is true. Not just true for him, but we cannot question someone else’s truth.

How can Dugin ever claim to have something superior to Western thought when, like Antiochus Epiphanes and Mohammad, his particular view is just an extreme fascist perversion of Western philosophical errors? After all, Antiochus took Western paganistic Jupiter-worship and perverted it to his own religion as forced upon the Jews. Again, Mohammad did nothing but take Ebionism and other heretical versions of Judaeo-Christianity and likewise perverted it to his own religion as forced upon Jews and Christians.

Dugin’s view is an Enlightenment view, as much as he might claim to be against Western liberalism.

Ecclesiastes 1:9, 10,

9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

If you are a born again Protestant Bible believing Christian you really need to believe, not only that there is an absolute truth, but also that Jesus promised us (from the Father) the means of absolute interpretation, the Holy Ghost.

Dugin seems more and more like that little horn, even sharing a name with the former big horn of the goat in Daniel 8, Alexander the Great.

Catholic education’s war on truth

Very recently I happened to be in a Catholic High School’s library, and I looked in the 220 section, which has Bibles and books about religion. As I browsed the various books, I came across a startling book about “Social Justice”.

I skimmed through the book, and was struck by how completely this book was presenting a Socialistic, extreme left-wing view, telling the children to not only promote a communistic equalisation of society, but to become activists, that is, ideological warriors who would participate in a variety of actions like propaganda campaigns, unruly street protests and other such anti-patriotic, anti-traditionalist and anti-conservative activities.

It is truly shocking that the bare-faced communistic message pushed by Lenin or Latin American groups would be so profoundly and openly allowed and lauded for today’s young. And this book was put out by some Roman Catholic group.

Another book nearby, also from a Catholic publisher, was called “Rainbow Serpent Theology”, which basically lamented that Christian missionaries had converted Australian Aboriginals, and that now these left-wing Catholics would promote this pantheism.

The fact is that what are actually radical, extreme and vile teachings of social justice and antichristianity is now being pushed by a whole faction of the Roman Catholic organistion. What is worse is that a whole section of High Anglicans and the Uniting “Church” have likewise turned to this way of thinking. The Eureka Street Jesuits, the Caritas organisation and others are poisoning hundreds of thousands of young minds.

Pr 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

We are in the middle of a social, cultural war where the left seem to dominate the entire space.

We need to turn back to the Bible and its world-impacting influence and outworking through Anglo-American culture.

Ps 11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

Human kind is not “equal”, but rather, each person is either closer to or further from the ways of God. Only Christ Jesus can make a person right before God, and it is in Him where everyone has their place. Some people are called to one thing and some to another in the Kingdom of God.

The socialistic and anti-Christian teachings spewing forth in the world and among many religious organisations today about “equality” is decidedly against the teaching of the Bible. It is not “liberation” to make your own way in life. The Christian religion gives true liberty, because sin is a great overmaster. Those promoting all those left-wing causes are actually promoting license, and are trying to create an environment where the Word of God has no effect (e.g. their anti-Gospel message to the Aboriginal elders).

Russians want to divide Australia by race

Who would have guessed? The Russians are behind claims for Aboriginal sovereignty in Australia.

It is ironic that Russian extremism would be backing this leftist ideology. I don’t think they really care about anything with this, but trying to destroy our great nation.

Confessing or professing?

Confessing and professing are not the same thing.

Sometimes the Bible says “confess”, with its meanings, and sometimes it says “profess”, with its meanings. Those words are not strictly interchangeable, but no doubt conceptually overlap.

In looking at the usages of these words, I would suggest that confess means to:
a. admit guilt
b. proclaim plainly agreement to a doctrine
c. reveal or disclose thoughts

Whereas profess means to:
a. claim, by speaking or proclamation
b. state one’s position or ability
c. lay hold in faith by speaking

Therefore, we can conclude that what some people call faith confessions (not to be confused with doctrinal confessions) really would better be called faith professions, like in this verse:

Mark 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

See the following:

1 Tim. 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

1 Tim. 6:21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

Heb. 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

Now, you can confess you agree with these Scriptures, but professing them means you act accordingly.

Eurasia and Oceania are at war

Charles Clover wrote in 2011, “the leader of the Eurasianist Movement, Alexander Dugin, … has worked to make dictatorship hip. … In Mr Dugin’s vision, a reborn Russia is a slightly retooled version of the Soviet Union with dystopian echoes of George Orwell’s 1984, where Eurasia was one of three continent-sized super states (Oceania and Eastasia being the other two) in perpetual war.”

In the Scripture, we find this prophecy, “And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.” (Daniel 11:40).

Sheikh Imran Hosein goads WW3

imran

Sheikh Imran Hosein, a leading Islamic eschatologist and bosom friend of Russian anagogical ideologue, Alexander Dugin, has “predicted” (like his Russian friend) that World War Three is coming. Hosein has instructed his followers to abandon money, but to return to gold and silver and to sell up and move to the country and begin to live off the land so as to survive the coming war. He teaches the Islamic view of the end times, including the Islamic view of a coming false pro-Jewish leader and the Mahdi (the great Muslim saviour). Hosein also advocates an alliance with Russia and the Eastern Orthodox religion.

Some Christians have bought into this view, claiming that the Islamic saviour is indeed coming, whom they are calling “antichrist”. They have tried to match the Muslim ideology into interpreting the End Times in the Bible. Accordingly, the dragon of Revelation might be viewed as representing Islamic nations. They are also trying to say that the coming antichrist is the same as what the Muslims are calling the Mahdi.

Those Christians are only half right. The proper way to understand Bible prophecy is to disregard any Islamic teachings altogether. When we begin from the Protestant tradition, we find that there is a view that there is a WESTERN and an EASTERN antichrist. This is explained in detail in the book, “Multiple Fulfilments of Bible Prophecy”, bibleprotector.com/prophecy

The Eastern Antichrist is spoken about in Daniel 8 and Daniel 11. This is not the same as the Western Antichrist of the end times.

The Eastern Antichrist has three stages:
1. Antiochus Epiphanes, the Hellenistic Syrian ruler who persecuted the Jews.
2. Mohammad and the history of Islam to 1967.
3. The coming leader of Russia, Gog.

We are rapidly approaching the third stage.

The facts today showing how the third and final Eastern antichrist of history is ready:

1. Russia is involved with Syria today, an Islamic nation.
2. Russia and Islam are connected, such as Russia’s backing of the Syrian dictatorship, the Iranian dictatorship, etc.
3. Russia’s leading spiritual leader, Alexander Dugin, is directly connected with Sheikh Imran Hosein, who are talking about eschatology and Gog and Magog.

The final events of the Eastern Antichrist are described in Ezekiel 38 and 39.

“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.” (Matthew 24:11).

Of course, world war does come when the very same false prophets push it. But the Bible shows God ends their war, “And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.” (Isaiah 17:14).

Quick review on “Is the KJB the only inspired Scripture on Earth today?” debate.

In late 2015, a written debate took place asking the question, “Is the King James Bible the Only Inspired Scripture on Earth Today?”

There are some who are so committed to an erroneous, non-faith view of Bible transmission, that they will stoop to any low (I have seen this consistently) in their attack on the King James Bible.

The very debate question itself is a falsehood. Those who uphold the King James Bible do not uphold it as the “only inspired Scripture on Earth today”.

This is because the Scripture was given by an inspiration process ONCE with the original writings. And second, all faithful transmission of Scripture is providing and preserving those inspired words. That means that someone who had a some Swahili translation back in the early 1800s must have had the inspired words of God, because the Scripture words are inspired, despite having passed from one language to another.

On this first basis some attack and wish to malign those who uphold the King James Bible, because several ignorant or misguided individuals have claimed a special inspiration for the King James Bible, as though it was made by inspiration from 1605-1611. That is, of course, nonsense.

So while the proponent of the King James Bible in the debate (Will Kinney) presented the case with Scriptures, those against spent all their time trying to make the KJB appear merely the product of men. They spared nothing to imply that the KJB must be wrong because of printing errors. Except, they argue, these weren’t printing errors, but deliberate choices by the translators that were wrong.

The entire flimsy argumentation that they employed against the King James Bible basically tries to make out that the drafts of the KJB show that the KJB translators’ work is not the work we have today. This is an entire fabrication. One alleged draft document was known in the time of Westcott, a leading agent against the King James Bible in 1881, yet Westcott described this alleged draft as in fact a comparison work between old versions. We read from first hand examiners (e.g. Ward Allen) that there are many annotations in that copy which were never printed in the KJB at any time.

Really what happens is those against the KJB turn to every source that takes an unbelieving, naturalistic interpretation: they will heed David Norton when he alleges changes to the KJB, such as the totally obvious typographical error at Hosea 6:5 “Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets” which in 1611 was accidentally printed “shewed”. Apparently (like some sort of elaborate conspiracy), it was really supposed to be “shewed”.

This is the level of those who dishonestly and unashamedly attack the grand old King James Bible. They wish us to be some sort of hill-billies while they, with their “science falsely so called”, wish to tear and abuse the KJB at any cost.
