Gog Stirring & Evil Rising: Is The Russia-Ukraine Crisis A Harbinger Of Biblically Predicted Events?

Jan Markell

Gog is stirring and evil is rising. The bear has always been wicked but now it is as though Mr. Putin is possessed. He is showing aggression not seen in decades. Observers say he has transformed recently into ultimate evil and with the images playing out in front of us, that is obvious.

Nuclear forces are now alerted in Russia. Talk about perilous times (II Timothy). Israel is on alert because we know Vladimir Putin will not stop with Ukraine. Much more territory is in his sights, and he longs for the spoil (wealth) stored up in Israel (Ezekiel 38-39).

Society became fear-based two years ago with the pandemic, which opened the door for government overreach. More and more, the world longs for a leader, a Mr. Fix-It. Right now, such a person is not prominent. He may be obscure at this time, but he is waiting in the wings.

The Church will never know who the Antichrist is and the leader of the Russian invasion is not the Antichrist. But Vladimir Putin is “Gog-esque.” His ultimate goal could be “the mountains of Israel” (Ezekiel 38:8). Thanks to this blundering invasion, more than ever, he needs the natural resources and other “wealth” of Israel.

The conflict in Ukraine is an end-time turning point. It is much more than “wars and rumors of wars” predicted in the Bible for the end-of-days. It is further destabilizing a world that is already groaning, fearful and weary.

It is impossible to keep up with the signs of the times. But the world lacks a strong, forceful leader. You cannot point to a capital in the world today that reflects leadership. And that’s when tyrants rise.

One wonders if it is 1942 or 2022. Watching refugees on the run, having left possessions, people and even pets behind, tears at the heart. One day they had a normal, prosperous life and the next, they were being hunted. The strong, and particularly bullies, always want to destroy the weak. 

Is this a temporary catastrophe or is it leading to WWIII? How does it fit into biblical prophecy? When will this man who is waiting in the wings, announce his arrival? We have more questions than answers. We just know that God is allowing much to happen so that all things fall into place.

The globalist cabal must keep stirring things up with pandemics, wars, economic peril, uncertainty, and more. To reset the world to their New World Order plan, the old must be riddled with confusion and chaos. 

The wars of this Church Age pale in significance to the mayhem and trauma of the Tribulation. You want no one you love left behind.

Signs are a harbinger of His return. We are seeing such events happen closer together, in real time, just as the Bible predicted. You can almost hear the hoof beats of the Four Horsemen, which means the disappearance of the Church via the Rapture is imminent.

‘The State-Mandated Religion Is Gender Ideology’: Parents Are In A Fierce Battle To Protect Children

When the Supreme Court denied a petition in October to review Erin and Jonathan Lee’s lawsuit against a northern Colorado school district accused of secretly manipulating their 12-year-old daughter to believe that she was a boy, the Christian couple was profoundly disappointed. “The state-mandated religion of Colorado is gender ideology,” Erin says. “It reigns supreme, and it’s a spiritual battle.”

Working To Reshape America’s Worldview: Is Social Media Creating Islamic Terrorists?

Neither of these individuals appeared to have been raised in Muslim households nor were recent immigrants. And yet, they were allegedly drawn into plans to support IS solely through online interactions. As Hankinson emphasized, they echo earlier figures like Zachary Chesser, the suburban Virginia convert who, post-high school, embraced radical Islam via blogs, websites, and eventual real-world ties. And what stands out today is the shift: radicalization increasingly requires no physical community, no visit to a mosque, no face-to-face recruitment… Screens alone suffice.

In An Ever Darkening World, We Can Find Solace In Bible Prophecy

The bright side of the growing evil in the world is that it is a sure sign that we are living in the season of the Lord’s return. If you will check Genesis 6, you will find that Noah’s society was characterized by violence and immorality. This is the reason that the great pastor, Adrian Rogers (1931-2005), once said, “The world is growing gloriously dark.” How can the acceleration of evil be considered “glorious”? Because it is a sign of the imminent return of Jesus.
