God’s Firestorm Will Burn the Islamic Koran
Pastor Joseph Chambers
The entire
episode around the mosque at Ground Zero or the burning of the Koran is a
precursor of prophecy. The War of Gog and Magog will be driven by the
false prophecies in the Koran and its dictates for the cleansing of all
Jews from Jerusalem and Israel. Ezekiel gave us a powerful timeline for
this war and clearly promised that the nations in this coalition will
be eliminated from the earth. A firestorm – the likes of which only
Sodom and Gomorrah can compare – will erase the Islamic religion from
the Middle East and portions of Europe and may affect America.
Chapters
thirty-six and thirty-seven of this prophetic book, which was written
by Ezekiel, promised the revival of the Nation of Israel. In chapters
thirty-eight and thirty-nine he revealed this war by Israel’s enemies
and their effort to cleanse Jerusalem of what they view as the nasty
Jews. Immediately after this picture of God’s firestorm against
Israel’s enemies, the Scripture promises Israel the rebuilding of their
glorious temple and an age of indescribable peace. These Scriptures are
so exact that to doubt the present movement towards God’s plans
requires disbelief of the Holy Bible. Ezekiel received this prophecy
while in exile from Jerusalem and living on the bank of the Kebar River
in Babylon.
Some
writers speak of the Islamic religion as the religion of the
Antichrist, but this is misguided. The Antichrist is clearly pictured
in Revelation chapter seventeen as the intimate companion of the false
whore church of Christianity. At no point in the twenty-two chapters of
Revelation is there one bit of evidence of an Islamic religion even
existing. The Islamic religion is the religion that drives the War of
Gog and Magog but the apostate religion of the false church drives the
Antichrist movement. The Antichrist’s passion is to unseat the God of
the Bible not the god of Islam.
The
nations that Ezekiel prophesied to lead this War of Gog and Magog are
in perfect alignment. The two leading nations are Russia and Iran,
named by Ezekiel by their original connections – Gog and Magog and
Persia. If Ezekiel was alive today he could not state the facts around
the coming war better. Look at this precise statement — a little
research will show its perfection. “Son
of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince
of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him.” “Persia, Ethiopia, and
Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet: Gomer, and all his
bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands:
and many people with thee” (Ezekiel 38:2, 5-6).
The
coalition may well embrace as many as 25-30 governments and an army of
incredible numbers. They all will be driven by the Islamic fury against
Israel and America. There is no date set by this prophecy, but the
present storm is certainly evidence of how quickly the fury can reach
the necessary pitch. What is happening may cool down or it may not, but
at God’s ordained hour it will explode and the world will tremble.
Such
an army will gather to march that all possibilities of defense will be
eliminated. Israel will clearly see her existence as beyond human hope
to survive. Some believe Israel already has a plan that they understand
as “Ezekiel’s Option.” Their intent is to exhaust all their military
resources and to accept whatever results. When this massive army
crosses the borders in Northern Israel – stretching all the way from
Russia and covering the countries that border the Promise Land – it will
be God’s signal to intervene. Chills of joy run up and down my very
being when I consider what our Great God of the pure faith of the Bible
is going to do.
Burning
the Koran is barely worth mentioning. This dark religion is an affront
to God and everything He loves and will defend. The firestorm will
break with a fury that only faith in God and the Bible can possibly
understand. God said it like this, “And
I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith
the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother. And I
will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain
upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with
him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in
the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD”
(Ezekiel 38:21-23). When God issues this call, the angels of Heaven and Earth will move into action and Israel’s defense will no longer be human.
I
believe that when the War of Gog and Magog is over, there will not be
any capitols in Russia, Turkey, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia,
Libya, and on and on. The city called Mecca will be non-existent and
the sands of these capitols will be melted as glass. Joel spoke of the
ruins that will welcome the remnant of this army as they try to go home,
“But I will remove far off from
you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and
desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward
the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall
come up, because he hath done great things. Fear not, O land; be glad
and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things.” (Joel 2:20-21).
I
have no desire to burn the Koran although I understand that this book
is on the same level as the Satanic Bible. The apostate church of
America is full of people that are perfectly willing to call it a “Holy
Book.” To do this reveals a state of mind towards the absolute Bible
that borders on blasphemy. It’s dark out there and will get darker
until our God says it’s enough. That could be and probably is right at
the door. To all my Bible-believing friends, “Get ready, judgment is
coming.”
