Armageddon to Magog Timeline
(condensed version of a study I am working on - ckc)
Here's what
Scripture says about the return of Y'shua:
--- Matthew 24:27 All eyes
will see the return of Y'shua... :29 immediately after the suffering of
those days... :30 Y'shua comes upon the clouds of heaven with great
power and glory. He sends his Messengers with a large trumpet and they
gather his chosen from the four winds.
--- First Thessalonians 4:16
confirms Y'shua will descend from heaven with the voice of the chief
Messenger and the shofar (large trumpet) of Elohim. His Set Apart believers (his chosen) are caught
up together to the clouds to meet Y'shua Messiah and be with him forever.
--- Revelation 6:12 tells us the 6th Seal is opened and because of the
earthquake, darkened sun, red colored moon, falling stars and mountains
and islands being moved out of their places Every One Will Know the
great day of wrath has come.
--- Revelation 11:15 tells us the
world becomes the kingdom of Y'shua after the 7th shofar is sounded.
(the last trumpet before the final plagues)
--- Rev. 11:19 the Temple of Elohim in heaven opens, the Ark of His Covenant is seen...
--- Revelation 16 tells us the 6th cup of Yah's wrath is poured out
upon the Euphrates to make a way for the kings of the east to cross. :13
from the mouth of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet came out
unclean spirits like frogs - they are the spirits of demons who work
signs and they go forth to gather all the kings to the battle of the
great day of Elohim... :16 and they collected them together at
Armageddon
--- 16:17 the 7th cup is poured out and a voice from the Temple and from the throne said It Is Done.
--- Revelation 19: Babylon has been judged and with that the blood of
the souls under the altar has been avenged (Seal 5 vision). 19:7 the
marriage supper of the Lamb has come... :11 heaven opens and Y'shua
rides out upon a white horse and in righteousness he judges and makes
war. :13 the army of heaven follows him, also riding white horses. From
the mouth of Y'shua issues a sharp two-edged sword with which he can
strike nations. He will rule with a rod of iron, and he treads the
winepress of the wrath of Elohim Almighty.
--- Revelation 19:19 The
Beast (final world leader) and the kings of the earth and
their armies assemble to wage battle with Y'shua Messiah (Rev. 16:16). The Beast
is captured and the false prophet that was with him are cast into Fire
Lake and the rest were slain by the sword of Y'shua -- all the fowls
were satiated with their flesh.
--- Revelation 20 tells us Satan is now
locked up in the abyss for the next thousand years which brings us
to Ezekiel's prophecy recorded in chapters 38 and 39.
--- Revelation
20:7 says when the thousand years are completed Satan will be released
from his prison and goes forth to seduce the nations: Gog and Magog, to
assemble them for battle. This army, the vast horde, will eventually
'encompass the camp of the Set Apart believers and the beloved city (Jerusalem).
---Ezekiel
38:8 notes 'after a long time' YHWH will summon Gog (Satan has been
release from the abyss and starts summoning/seducing nations).
---Ezekiel 38:10 says Gog gets this idea to attack a people gathered
from among nations now living at the center of the earth (Jerusalem,
that beloved city). My note here is that those people who are gathered
together and living secure whom Gog desires to attack are the camp of
Set Apart ones and those living in the city, same ones mentioned in
Revelation 20:7.
This time line is toward the end of the thousand year
reign of Y'shua's earthly kingdom (way after Armageddon event). Satan is
released at the end of those thousand years and I read it as he
influences Gog, the chief prince of Turkey (Meshech and Tubal) just as
he influenced the final world leader during the final seven years of
life as we know it. Revelation 20:7 also notes that 'fire came down from
Elohim and consumed them, just as Ezekiel 39: notes that YHWH sends fire
against Magog and those on the coast lands.
I
read this as Two separate events,
two different endings. At the Armageddon event, the AC and the False
Prophet are captured and thrown into the lake of fire and Satan is
locked up. We rule and reign with Messiah a thousand years (our final
testing and refining). At the Magog event, after Satan has been released
for a little while - long enough to deceive the very elect and gather
forces against the Camp and the City - YHWH sends fire to consume the
armies and then
Satan is cast into the lake of fire, where the AC and false prophet have
been. And then the dead are judged by YHWH, the books are opened, death
and the grave are cast into Fire Lake... and then FINALLY we can live
happily ever after!
