Chris White starts a new study about the “Gog Magog” war in Ezekiel 38-39. He begins by talking about a passage in Revelation 20.

The Bible has a lot of strange locations thrown at us in Ezekiel 38 and 39. Persia, Cush, Put, Gomer, Meshech, Tubal, Beth-Togarmah, Mos Eisley, Alderaan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you'd need a time machine to know where all these places are. In fact, you'd need a space ship, too, because some of them only exist in a galaxy far, far away. Since we don't have time travel technology all figured out yet, we'll have to rely on history to tell us where all these places are. But why is knowing all these names important, anyway? Because these are the nations or peoples who are prophesied to come against Israel in an epic battle in the last days. The famous prophecy of Gog and Magog.And this prophecy's fulfillment may be close. And it may not. That's why we have to understand what nations we should be watching closely. Once we've established who is who in this biblical drama, we'll know how to see them coming into alignment with this prophecy- and perhaps be able to track how close we are to Gog and Magog's battle play out. I'll teach you the signs we're looking for today on the Cross References podcast.0:00 - Introduction5:00 - Persia9:50 - Cush12:50 - Put14:10 - Gomer and Beth-Togarmah18:00 - Closing ThoughtsIf you want to get in touch with me, send an email to crossreferencespodcast@gmail.comIf you're looking for a detailed Ezekiel Bible study, cross-referenced with supporting scripture, this podcast will provide an in-depth look at the prophets of the Bible, with clear Bible prophecy explained.

We're finally here, the most famous section of Ezekiel: chapters 38 and 39. The battle of Gog and Magog.This chapter is about an alliance of nations that band together to attack Israel in the end times. The list of nations includes names like Cush, Put, Togarmah and more, and they're led by a figure named Gog. I don't know about you, but these sound like someone in Scrabble trying to make up words with whatever tiles they have left. In fact, it's hard to know who all it's talking about unless we do some historical research to find out what these words meant to Ezekiel's original audience. And that's not difficult to do, except when it comes to the identity of the leader of this alliance: Gog. Who is Gog? That's the question we're going to start this multi week study with, and it all begins today on the Cross References podcast.0:00 - Introduction4:30 - Meshech and Tubal14:50 - Magog18:25 - Gog28:25 - Is Gog the Antichrist?If you want to get in touch with me, send an email to crossreferencespodcast@gmail.comIf you're looking for a detailed Ezekiel Bible study, cross-referenced with supporting scripture, this podcast will provide an in-depth look at the prophets of the Bible, with clear Bible prophecy explained.

Psalm 120 is the first of the fifteen “Songs of Ascents” (Psalms 120-134), a collection of Psalms traditionally believed to have been sung by pilgrims as they ascended to Jerusalem for the annual festivals. This particular Psalms is a short but intense plea for deliverance from deceitful and hostile people. Key Themes and Structure: 1.A Cry for Deliverance (Verses 1-2): The psalm begins with the psalmist crying out to the Lord in distress. The distress is specifically caused by deceitful tongues and lying lips. The psalmist expresses a deep need for deliverance from those who spread falsehoods, emphasizing the pain and trouble that lies and slander bring. 2.The Consequences of Deceit (Verses 3-4): The Psalmist then reflects on the fate of the deceitful. He asks, “What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue?” The answer is severe: sharp arrows of the warrior and burning coals of the broom tree. These images suggest that deceitful words will be met with strong and painful retribution, indicating the seriousness with which God views lying and slander. 3.Longing for Peace in a Hostile World (Verses 5-7): The psalmist laments living in the midst of a hostile environment, naming “Meshech” and “Kedar,” regions symbolizing foreign, barbaric lands far from the peace of Israel. The psalmist is weary of dwelling among people who hate peace. While the psalmist desires peace and speaks of it, those around him are intent on war, highlighting the deep tension between the psalmist's values and the surrounding hostility. Reflection: Psalm 120 reflects the inner turmoil and distress of a person surrounded by hostility and deceit. The psalmist's cry to the Lord underscores a deep trust in God as the only source of deliverance from the painful effects of slander and lies. The vivid imagery of sharp arrows and burning coals conveys the destructive power of deceitful speech and the inevitable consequences that those who practice it will face. The psalm also captures the tension of living as a person of peace in a world that often seems bent on conflict and discord. This is a theme that resonates with many who strive for peace in their personal lives, communities, and the world at large, yet find themselves surrounded by strife. For believers, Psalm 120 serves as a reminder that God hears the cries of those who are oppressed by lies and hostility. It encourages a steadfast commitment to truth and peace, even in the face of opposition. The psalmist's longing for peace also points to the ultimate peace that is found in God, and the hope that one day, the conflicts and deceit of the world will be replaced by God's perfect justice and peace.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.
