In the last post, I showed the Mark of the Beast and what it means. It’s obvious. But, there are also some less obvious things that support that interpretation. God has revealed the nations who will send forces to fight along-side Gog against Israel. Although they’ve expanded since Ezekiel’s time, where their roots are are all Islamic today. See Ezekiel 38
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel%2038&version=NIV It continues in Ezekiel 39: https://ref.ly/Eze39
To help translate the ancient names of the Ezekiel 38-39 nations to the modern ones, here are a bunch of maps from old Bibles.

See post 13 to see how the Bible shows that Magog spread the farthest and widest.

The maps show the territories where the tribes were strongly established:
Gog, of the land of Magog, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, Persia, Cush and Put will be with them, also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troops. (Ezekiel 38)
Tubal, Meshech, Beth-Togarmah, and Gomer are all rooted in/from Asia Minor/Anatolia according to the maps at the back of Bibles. That’s modern day Turkey. Magog, also shown in Turkey, was the dominant son of Japheth, the precursor of the Caucasian groups who were described as ‘the conquering ones’ who will spread far and wide. That makes perfect sense since Gog is a title of the Antichrist. I don’t confine Magog to Turkey or anywhere, but it’s important to know where the roots are.

The Gog Magog War seems to lead into the Armageddon War, but likely with a short pause for a false peace to be setup in order to establish the worlds submission to Gog.
The prophesy Balaam made to Balak, made it clear that the great Messiah of the Israelites will ultimately conquer Gog.
So be it if Israel will be burning weapons into the Millennial Kingdom; We’ll be there!
25.1 Glory God Beyond

By the time Jacob’s Trouble/The Day of The Lord begins, the world will be situated for the preliminary Gog coalition, which might have already been formed by then, but it will all lead satan’s triad, also led by Gog.
Unraveling Revelation: Rise of the Mahdi:

Here’s a map showing some of the lands from which the ‘Gog coalition’ will rise. (I’m using the interpretation of the Hebrew word transliterated as ‘rus,’ as not referring to a future country ‘Russia’, but as the adjective ‘chief’ that refers to the ‘chief prince of Magog.’
25.2 Glory God Beyond
None of the other territories in Ezekiel 38 are identified by homonyms or nations that didn’t exist when the Old Testament was written. They’re always referred to by their ancient names. Why should ‘rus’ mean Russia when the word actually means ‘chief’ which fits the meaning of the verse perfectly.) Russia will nevertheless be involved via the expansion of Meshech or Tubal, and probably also Beth Togarmah, all of which have expanded northward.
I should point out that the above map may overemphasize the northern African territories while under representing the possible extent of the territories in central Asia, which may have been encompassed by the word ‘Persia’ in Ezekiel 38.
The ‘Russia idea’ has gone viral historically.
It was very difficult to even find this map online, because the ‘Russia idea’ went viral centuries ago. I agree that Russia already has reasons to support the currently forming Gog coalition as well as the final Gog led war at Armageddon, as will all the nations of the world; Putin is very involved with the WEF and therefore he will also have a large role in the economy of Babylon the Great. But, the Gog coalition is Islamic at its core, and its hatred is supernatural. It’s against the true God Himself, the God of the Bible; And by extension, it’s against all His chosen people, Jesus Himself, the Jews and all the true saints who follow the Jewish Messiah.
25.3 Glory God Beyond
The Extent of ‘Persia’
About the territories in the Ezekiel prophesy as regards to Persia: I’m not at all denying that the Shia Islamic country of modern day Iran is the core of the Persia mentioned in Ezekiel 38. I’m just realizing that the prophesied ‘Persia’ may or may not be confined just to the borders modern country Iran. That’s because the ‘Persian Empire’ included many territories that are Islamic today such as: 5 Central Asian Nations – Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan; 2 South Asian Nations – Afghanistan and Pakistan, 3 Middle Eastern Nations – Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and the Eastern European Nation of Azerbaijan. Even if Ezekiel’s was using the word ‘Persia’ to refer only to the territory confined by the borders that were present at the time in which he lived, before the Persia Empire expanded, its borders wouldn’t match exactly with today’s Islamic country of Iran. And I’m not even saying they need to match exactly, just that we should pay some attention to the greater area. Iran’s not only financing terrorists in Lebanon, Syria and Yemen, but there are now alliances being made, between Sunni and Shia nations. One example being between Turkey and Iran.
25.4 Glory God Beyond
God Almighty has presented us with continuous stories of ‘peoples’ who are linked with certain ‘territories’ going back to the post flood tribes. Their subsequent stories being told through their interactions with the 12 Tribes of Jacob (Israel), in relation to their allotted land within the Levant, and also with a special emphasis on the ancient ‘Iranian peoples.’
Take a look at these Wikipedia articles, they were real eye openers to me!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ancient_Iranian_peoples and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medes.
25.5 Glory God Beyond
At the time of my writing this, soon after October 7th ’23, out of all the currently existing states in the world, (especially the ones that were formerly part of the Persian Empire and the ones that were formerly part of the Ottoman Empire) . . .
. . . the states that were making the harshest official statements against Israel, in the early weeks after the Hamas attack were: Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Kuwait, Jordan, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Syria, Tajikistan, Egypt, Sudan.
And these are the nations that either never recognized Israel or have suspended or withdrawn their recognition: Algeria, Libya, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Kuwait, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Turkey will likely be next, as the grass roots reactions against Israel in Turkey is much, much worse that that in Iran. Erdogan has been calling Israel’s actions genocide.
