Russia is Gog. Is China Magog? I'm agog.

by Andy on August 4, 2005

Anybody understand what this is all about?

One of the most significant pre-end-time events will occur August 18 through the
25th in Gog and Magog. Amassing on the border between Eastern Russia and Western
China will be some ten thousand soldiers of the Russian and Chinese armies,
ready to conduct joint military exercises for the first time in modern history.

Bitter enemies throughout the last three hundred years, China once claimed
that much of the Russian far east rightfully belonged to Beijing and this
territorial rivalry, along with competing brands of communism in the 20th
century, resulted in many a bloody battle along their common border. But this is
the very land of Gog and Magog described in the Bible.

And the military exercises are also reflective of this area that scholars
debate as to the true identity of Gog and Magog. Russia and Moscow are commonly
accepted as Gog. Magog, however, is disputed as to whether it is part of Russia
or part of the former land roamed by the Scythians, which would put the area in
both the hands of Russia and China. Irrespective of the debate, it is agreed
that this is the general area prophesied by the prophet Ezekiel of those who
will come against Israel in the last days.

Answers on the back of a postcard, please.
