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.
