THE BATTLE OF GOG AND MAGOG
Revelation twenty states Satan can deceive rulers and nations after his release.
During the millennium kingdom, according to scripture, a man’s lifespan will be increased. Men will be living for hundreds of years so that the earth will be repopulated. For Satan to gather an army like the sand of the sea, there will be millions upon millions that will join his military band. To me, that speaks volume of the rebellious nature of man. If you have lived your life in peace, why would you want chaos?
Ezekiel chapters thirty-eight and thirty-nine symbolically describe the invasion of Israel. Israel has been at rest for one thousand years. The land is flourishing, and prosperity abounds. Satan can use the lust of the eyes and lust of the flesh to persuade leaders and surrounding nations to attack Jesus. No doubt, humans with their depraved nature will be viewing Jesus and the immortal believers as invaders of planet earth, and they want to take back control. This notion, which will be their demise leads to the battle of Gog and Magog.
Under the direction of Satan, his revolutionary forces surround the camp of believers in Jerusalem and fire comes down from God out of heaven and kills them.
