What will that final day of this flesh age be like?

There is soon coming a time when the final grains of sand will completely empty out of the hour glass of this flesh age and the 7th Trump will sound and Jesus Christ will triumphantly return to establish the kingdom of God "on earth, as it is heaven". What will that final day of this flesh age be like? Those who are familiar with the Word of God know that there are many events and prophecies that will come to pass on that day, some very good and some very bad! It just depends on who you are (even whose you are) and what you have done:

It will be a day of triumph and victory and great joy for the children of God and those who have overcome the beast and those who love the Lord and are His at His coming.

It will be a Day of Vengeance and recompense against those who have sided with the beast system and have been deceived by antichrist into believing he is the Messiah returned, and have participated in doing his bidding.

We have now come to chapters 38 & 39, the final two chapters of Ezekiel preceding the chapters of the Millennial restoration, which are chapters 40 through 48.  However, to fully understand these two chapters it is extremely important that we understand some of the other events taking place at the time of the 7th Trump, i.e. on that great day. Those who have studied 2 Thes. 2 and the 16th chapter of Revelation know that Satan and his cronies gather together in Jerusalem, where the famous "Battle of Armageddon" will take place when Christ returns. If you look up the word "armageddon" in Hebrew, you'll find it means "mount of rendezvous", which of course is Mount Zion where Christ returns.

Let's see what happens at the close of that final hour during the reign of antichrist, the false Jesus, just before the real bridegroom, Jesus Christ, returns.

Rev. 16:12
And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

[13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

[14] For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

[15] Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

[16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

Rev. 16:17
And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

[18] And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

Rev. 11:19
And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

Let's continue in Rev. 16:

Rev. 16:19
And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

[20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

Rev. 11:15
And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

Rev. 16:21
And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

You know, we should all consider it a privilege granted to us by our Father to be able to read some of the specific details of the 7th Seal, the 7th Trump, and the 7th Vial which consummate the end of this flesh age in these 38th & 39th chapters. You see, since we believe His Word and we know that this is exactly the way things will end, we therefore know with certitude that there is not going to be a nuclear holocaust brought about by man in some sort of World War III. In that regard, these two chapters give His children comfort and knowledge and a "heads-up" in observing world events.

As we begin chapter 38, which sets the stage for the final act, there are two other basic things we need to know to understand this chapter.

1. The house of Israel is not the house of Judah. We learned that in the last chapter, right?

2. Gog in verse two means the "chief prince", who is the leader of Magog which is the land where Meshech and Tubal are located, which is in the region of the Caucasus in the land of Edom, i.e. Russia.

It is also really amazing how well prepared we have been for this chapter 38.
#1. We have seen the spiritual condition of the house of Israel through the vision of the dry bones.
#2. We have seen the judgments against Edom, the house of Esau, in the 35th and 32nd chapters where we saw the degradation of the Edomites and her allies who shall bear their shame with the rest of those who "go down into the pit".
#3. And of course we also just learned in chapter 37 that the house of Israel and the house of Judah are two separate sticks at this time and will remain so until Jesus Christ puts them back together at His return.

You see, it is really common knowledge among scholars that the chief prince of Meshech refers to Russia and consequently when preachers read that Russia comes against Israel, they point to the little nation of Israel in the Middle East.

The current nation of Israel located in the middle east is NOT the house of Israel, remember? It is part of the house of Judah mixed with the bad figs of Jeremiah chapter 24, i.e. the sons of Cain. You should already know where the largest gathering of the true house of Israel is. It is that one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all!

Therefore, there will be two locations of final battle on the last day of this flesh age.
One will be where the house of Judah (in part) dwells, and that location is called Armageddon.
The other is where the house of Israel resides and that location is called Hamon-gog.

Know also that the prophecy contained in these next two chapters has not yet come to pass and is yet future, though not very far off! The catalyst for the final wrath of Satan will come from God's own elect who will be delivered up during antichrist's reign to give testimony (which will be the light of truth) and God's witnesses who will speak after the manner of the example set forth on Pentecost Day when the Holy Spirit gave them utterance and everyone present from every nation clearly understood what was being said in their own dialect.
