I was reading some of my NT theology notes by HEF looking for info on another subject when . . .

I was shocked! SHOCKED!

To read Bro HEF disagrees with my opinion on the timing of the Gog Magog war. Smile

In a nutshell here is what he said (at least in my notes)

The question was . . . is the Rev. 20 Gog war the same as the Ezek. 38-39 Gog war.

3 main views
- Gog and Magog is equated with the battle of Armageddon at the close of the trib.
- Gog and Magog is equated with the battle of Armageddon at the close of the millennium.
- biblical view (in HEF's opinion) Gog and Magog is not the battle of Armageddon but occurs during the first half of the trib after the antichrist has signed a peace treaty with Israel.

There are a number of reasons why I disagree. Here are 2.
- it takes 7 yrs to clean up after the battle
- for the antichrist to rise to world power Russia along with China and (gulp) America have to be removed as world powers.

So much of the commentary I read from the christian world seems to say that the world will go on more or less as it is then the antichrist rises the rapture happens and then the trib.

My view in a nutshell is that the Gog war happens leading to the beginning of sorrows then the the sorrows then the trib.

As I have said before on here one can't get too dogmatic about end time events. We simply don't have enough info. We are certainly allowed to have opinions though.
