In LATTER YEARS you will come back into land of those brought back from sword and gathered from many people on mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of nations, and now all of them dwell safely. You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you."

Thus says Lord God: "On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan: you will say, ‘I will go against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in midst of land ...’

Thus says Lord God: "On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it? Then you will come from your place out of far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army. You will come against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover land.

It will be in latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that nations may know Me, when I am hallowed on you O Gog, before their eyes ..."

"And it will come to pass at same time, when Gog comes against land of Israel," says Lord God, "That My fury will show in My face. For in My jealousy and in fire of My wrath I have spoken: ‘Surely in that day there will be a great earthquake in land of Israel, so that fish of sea, birds of heavens, beasts of field, all creeping things that creep on earth, and all men who are on face of earth shall shake at My presence.

The mountains shall be thrown down, steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to ground.’

"I will call for a sword against Gog throughout all My mountain," says Lord God, "Every man's sword will be against his brother. And I will bring him to judgment with pestilence and bloodshed; I will rain down on him, on his troops, and on many peoples who are with him, flooding rain, great hailstones, fire and brimstone.

Thus I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am Lord." (Ezekiel 38:1-23) 2. Now here is verse that says that it will take 7 months to bury dead after God personally destroys this invading army and 7 years to burn all of their weapons that are still left on battlefield.

"Then those who dwell in cities of Israel will go out and set on fire and burn weapons, both shields and bucklers, bows and arrows, javelin and spears, and they will make fires with them for seven years ... It will come to pass in that day that I will give Gog a burial place there in Israel ... for seven months house of Israel will be burying them, in order to cleanse land. Indeed all people of land will be burying them, and they will gain renown for it on day that I am glorified," says Lord God. (Ezekiel 39:9-13)

Conclusion

Just imagine all of above events captured on our TV sets. The whole world is going to see aftermath of God’s wrath on this invading army. If Church is not raptured before this incredible event occurs, a lot of people will be looking to Christians for some of answers to this event. By time this event does occur, many Christians will have knowledge on all of these end time events. We will then be able to show others who are not saved how this entire event was already foretold to happen in Old Testament.

This one event alone will help prove to others existence of our God, that He is real and that Bible is one and only true Word of God. God will be making a very powerful statement to rest of world through this one main event in an effort to try and get as many people saved as He possibly can before things really start to heat up with all of events that will be occurring in Great Tribulation.

We have a lot to look forward to in coming years as world events slowly start to take shape and form as prophesied out of Bible.

Satan will obviously know this when he is cast down onto earth, and Bible even says from this point on, he knows his time is short and that is why he becomes so furious. Satan will thus have last three and half years to wreak as much havoc as he can through Antichrist and False Prophet before Jesus comes back and finally puts an end to his reign of terror.

I really feel that God is going to give all of us an incredible history lesson when we see what happens when Satan "merges" with Antichrist and False Prophet to cause as much destruction as they possibly can for last three and half years - especially if Church has already been raptured out before all of this begins to take place.

Without God and His Church in "big picture," - man, in union with Satan and his fallen angels, will wreak nothing but pure havoc and destruction on a mass scale to a degree that no man would have ever thought was possible.

For all those who think that man is basically "good," and that we don’t need God in our lives, and that we are all capable of creating paradise on our earth through our own efforts - these people will be shown first hand what will happen when earth is left in hands of humans under influence of Satan and all of his demons. The result will end up being mass chaos and total destruction to a degree that world has never seen before and will never see again! Jesus Himself said that had these days not been shortened by God Father Himself, that no flesh would survive this horrible time of trouble.

The Scripture Verse

Here is verse from Scripture that tells us exactly what will happen with this event.

"And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against dragon; and dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. So great dragon who was cast out, that serpent of old, called Devil and Satan, who deceives whole world; he was cast to earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and kingdom of God, and power of His Christ have come, for accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down ... Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them!Woe to inhabitants of earth and sea! For Devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.

Now when dragon saw that he had been cast to earth, he persecuted woman who gave birth to male child. But woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from presence of serpent. So serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by flood. But earth helped woman, and earth opened its mouth and swallowed up flood which dragon had spewed out of his mouth.

And dragon was enraged with woman, and he went to make war with rest of her offspring, who keep commandments of God and have testimony of Jesus Christ." (Revelations 12: 7-17)

So we know that this is referring to last three and half years of Tribulation. As I stated in my article titled, "Basic Overview of Main End Time Event", some people think that this "great eagle" may be United States since we have national symbol of an eagle. Our country is already on good terms with Israel and we obviously would be most natural choice to protect Israel if we are still considered a super power and not under control of Antichrist at this time.

Now that Satan, Antichrist and False Prophet are given incredible authority and power to carry out this unholy reign of terror for three and half years, how does God go about getting anyone saved during these last days if Church and His main body of believers have already been raptured out?

For this answer, go to next article titled "God's 4 Avenues to Reach Lost During Tribulation. God will arrange for an incredible counterbalance to take place during this time of trouble in an effort to get as many people saved as He possibly can.
