Fine, I'll address the OP.
The 'prophecies' of the bible are just like that of Nostradamus and other so-called 'prophets'. They are written in such an ambiguous way as that they could fit any number of scenarios - and that is what hooks people into believing them.

And also, doesn't the Bible say that God will set it in their hearts to believe the lies? Look, I found a fossil, there is no God!!! I mean, that guy must have had little faith to begin with, and God put that fossil there to test him. And lo and behold. He and many others bought into the lie, and lost faith in their Lord, the Creator.

It is always interesting to me that the atheist ones on ATS who slander Christians as religiously violent and dangerous and even stupid for believing in God and the Bible, are of the belief structure that when harnessed in atheist State power, have murdered, imprisoned, impoverished and oppressed more people than Christians in all their history. They slaughtered over two hundred million people in the Soviet Union alone. A brutal atheist State is currently starving people to death in North Korea. These intolerant liars imprison and oppress anyone who does not deny the existence of God and perform their collective group think when they have the power to do so. Hearing or seeing a Christian creates a gutteral response of a snake in the presense of a mouse. It is irrational and inhuman. That they ride high horses of self righteousness pointing the bloody fingers of their recent history at Christians, without even a doubt in their sense of superiority, is the rant of collective insanity.

I believe the final battle of Gog and Magog is scheduled to take place per the scriptures after the Millenium, after the 1000 years of peace where Christ reigns and Satan is again loosed for a little season before the final destruction of the world, correct me if I am wrong.

Can't you see the smile on my face? Unless you have antlers - or try to take it away from me - you have nothing to fear.
How about this one?

That in itself is astonishing and unprecedented, but to have it predicted thousands of years ago defies logic unless there is Someone looking out for them, and using supernatural means to tell us all about it (and in the process giving that group of people hope that they have NOT been abandoned by their Father in Heaven and that one day they would once again be welcomed home to the land which was promised to them.)
And again begs the question what does Religion/ Anti-Christ/ God/ Deities have to do with the history on Earth before humans arose which happens to be around 5 billion years old
The lands were there long before humans made up some Deity/God that promised any land to them.
TextWhich vision of God is more accurate? To be honest, I choose to believe in Jesus Christ and not in the Lord of Hosts. Even if they are one and the same, I just repulse the idea of God as being indulgent in the annihilation of billions of his children, regardless of their race or creed. And that, OP, is why I choose to believe, despite how well researched and clear your arguments are, that you are wrong. If politicians send their armies to slaughter, God has nothing to do with it. Mass murder is not God's will. Genocide is our decision and we must not elude our responsibility in owning it up.
