Peace all,
I pray everyone and your respective families are well.
Wow this is a huge subject, and I don't have enough time to even get started, but I'll give a hint to a *possibility*. Read Ezekiel 38:17. After you see the question regarding Gog, you have to ask, who is this Gog, he is talking about, because Gog isn't mentioned until Ezekiel, then look to the nations with Gog. I know someone whom is writing a book on the subject, and I will let everyone know when it is complete.This person believes that Gog, is another title for antichrist, among others.
As far as the claim the N.Y. or the US are Babylon, let's look at Isaiah 21.What is this "desert of the sea"? And why is the entire prophecy mentioning locations that only exist in Saudi Arabia?Not Babylon, Isn't SA, a desert sitting on a pile of water (several seas)?What other nation matches this desciption more than SA?Can there be any doubt, especially since this prophecy mentions it by name?Why does the text say "The Burden of Arabia" if what God intended was NYC?
I have been reading a rough-draft of this book, and it is quite different from what I have learned previousley, but alot of it has me thinking.
I am out of time, and if time permits, I'll come back to this ASAP.
Bless you all in His Name
