i didn't see a point. allotta circles tho. why don't they just say this is this because of this and spell it out? instead they are saying 'hey it's not this'', but then circle circle circle.
if the small description doesn't hint where to post i also have stickied 'about' pages under most categories to flesh it out more (but maybe no one reads them)... if you wanna suggest more, plz do...and goes for anyone...there are prob. people gifted w/ knowing whats best to put for clarity sake and i welcome them to arise and shine.

THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that christian post article just explained what i have thought my whole life and not known why!!!! when i was a kid i saw a map with magog in turkey, and have been suspicious of this teaching that its in russia a long time but had no clue why the map said that or why they thought it was in russia. i have always heard the 'experts' who get lots of huge issues in prophecy wrong, teaching it was russia cuz russia is north of israel. but so is turkey, and for that matter so is syria and the north pole. it hasn't ever made sense to me until i read this. how awesome!

ya'll needa rewrite it for peeps like me. i was looking for 'this is what the bible sez for this group'.... 'this is what it is today", enuff said. i can't help it...i am so anti-fluff. when they spend all their time saying 'oh everyones been wrong' more than the meat, i totally tune out.

haha well what that 500 page article said was Gog was a guys name. he lived in modern day turkey. Magog means the place where Gog is the chief or ruler or king or whatever. as the Bible often does the land is named by the guy that was the first one to lead a settlement there.
example from scripture: Ezekiel 38:2 son of man set your face against Gog of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal and prophesy against him.
in the next line it also clarifies that Gog is a man, he is the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. 3 towns in the land of Magog. where most of the teachings call this the Gog, and Magog war. its really just the Gog war. he was a man who had a region. that region was in Lydia which is the coast of turkey. notably this is also where troas was aka troy of the trojan horse story. and in the region is the city of pergamum, most notable the city where the devil has his throne from revelation. that why its more important to watch Turkey in the end times than Russia, though Russia has a roll its not what most people are looking for. make sense?
OH!!! i left something out lol. the most common teachings today on end times prophecy say that Gog is Iran and Magog is Russia. they draw many conclusions from this so if that not accurate then the conclusion also can not be accurate. ok i think that got it

ok i had never heard of joel richardson til i read this. but i was looking for the history of a man saturday and the genealogy took a dead end. it ended with a guy named joel who was not identified, and i thought well i have to find out who joel is. then i read this. then i saw chuck missler vid and he also mentioned joel richardson. so I've been watching him for hours. great stuff. I've just learned some really cool stuff:)

@ F1: Yeah, I know what you mean about the article, F1. I felt the same but it's the details that appeal to me. INFJ thing. @btf: what makes me feel better after reading the article was the fact that the Scythians are mentioned as part of this God Magog war and being Hungarian this bothers me because we are decendants from Scythians but actually go all the way back to ancient Sumer and Nimrod. I just don't want Hungary going against Israel, for it would be disaster for her for sure. There is a lot of anti-semite sediment in Hungary as it is. I think before the Gog war the Psalm 83 war has to take place first.
