THE GOG-MAGOG WAR
http://spiritualbiblestudies.com
CHAPTER ONE metaphorically speaking, and allowing Satan to come forth to spiritually destroy the corporate church of Jesus Christ. Again we reiterate that no true Christians will or can be deceived by this final act of Satan, for it is God’s judgment upon the unfaithful congregations of the world.]
Returning back to 2 Thessalonians 2:6-12 8 - And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [Cross Reference: Revelation 20:7-9 7 - And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 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. 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. [Back to Cross Reference: 2 Thessalonians 2:8 - And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:] 9 - Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 - And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 - And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: [The strong delusion appears most probably to be the deception within the corporate church that Christ warns of. “If it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect,” Matthew 24:24.] 12 - That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
