Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God
must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek
him.

Hebrews 10:30
For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

Deuteronomy 32
28 Israel is a nation devoid of counsel,
with no understanding among them.
29 If only they were wise, they would understand it;
they would comprehend their fate.
30 How could one man pursue a thousand,
or two put ten thousand to flight,
unless their Rock had sold them,
unless the LORD had given them up?
31 For their rock is not like our Rock,
even our enemies concede.

32 But their vine is from the vine of Sodom
and from the fields of Gomorrah.
Their grapes are poisonous;
their clusters are bitter.
33 Their wine is the venom of serpents,
the deadly poison of cobras.
34 “Have I not stored up these things,
sealed up within My vaults?

35 Vengeance is Mine; I will repay.i
In due time their foot will slip;
for their day of disaster is near,
and their doom is coming quickly.”

Now, we might be appalled at the wanton cruelty and death and destruction
inflicted by the enemy, having no answer to the supremacy in armour and air..

Their vast network of female and male dedicated prostitutes have infiltrated
the world economy, politics, diplomacy, science and religions - the world
is enchanted by their mantra and their right to defend themselves
which did not stop at twentyfold vengeance. Will it stop at fiftyfold,
God knows.

This defence included preemptive strike against the nations who were
labelled as "Gog and Magog" from Ezekiel 38. As they will attack the
Holy Land at the End of Days, it is strategically wise to use a preemptive
strike on those and weaken them by any means. Even when they never
heard about any of Ezekiel, Gog or Magog, but it has the potential
of turning into a self-fulfilling prophecy. Ironically, those nations
apparently did not exist in the time of Ezekiel and Babylon captivity
of Hebrews, so it is unclear who Gog and Magog are.

The common interpretation by the Western scholars is that Gog and Magog
are Southern and Northern Slavs (Scythia north of Black Sea).
Ironically, Cyrus of Persia gave the order to end Babylonian captivity and
rebuild Jerusalem. It is unknown whether he was aware of Ezekiel's
prophecy.

Of course, it is wise to look at more recent prophecies: that in Revelation
by apostle John.

Revelation 20
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his
prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four
quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the
number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up on the
breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the
beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured
them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and
brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be
tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Now, John regards "Gog and Magog" as deceived people from all four
corners of the earth. These are the ones that lived thousand years
(or an age if millennium is symbolic) without hunger, thirst, war, illness
and death.

But millennium kingdom is certainly going to forbid abortion, sexual
freedoms and homosexuality and gender/trangender/transhumanist
ideologies. The kingdom will be under the Law of God, the Ten
Commandments and the Lamb of God.

Paradoxically, the home of those blasphemous ideologies is no longer
Northern Slavonic peoples, even when communism originated there.

Slavonic people also naturally had the idea of modest life and they
converted to Christianity by preaching of Cyril and Methodius around 880 AD..

The brothers also invented Cyrillic script for Slavonic nations, which
remained to this day, probably to preserve ethnic identity from
assimilation by the Western Germanic powers and Byzantine influence.
They were preached to in their common language and understood the
liturgy and Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Back to the beginning.

Why we must not retaliate ourselves? As believers, we must believe that
1. God exists 2. God keeps His word and He will recompense evil.

Here is the patience and faith of the saints:

Revelation 13:10
He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the
sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the
saints.

What is striking is the revelation of foremother of the Israel, Rebekah:

Genesis 27
45 Until thy brother's anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which
thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why
should I be deprived also of you both in one day?

Rebekah speaks about her twin sons Esau and Jacob (later called Israel):
if Esau murdered Jacob in anger, she would have lost both sons - one
would be dead, the other would be a murderer who cannot inherit
eternal life (1 John 3:15).

And I don't want any of you to become murderers.

We cannot match the armour and weapons, and neither the guile and
international influence of the enemy among nations which they by
chance weaken as well whenever and wherever they can, introducing
decadent and degenerate ideologies. They cannot tolerate a single
Commandment kept, even those kept by the Philistines they ousted
from Canaan. Philistines were against adultery (Genesis 26:11 "Whoever
touches this man's [Isaac's] wife shall be put to death.")

Abraham and Isaac even swore oaths with the Philistines about mutual
non-aggression (Genesis 21:31, 26:31).

Things like the Babylonian exile of Israel could not have been done
without admonishing prophets like Jeremiah, Isaiah and Ezekiel sent first.
Now they have gathered themselves false prophets that do not try
to divert them from sin against the Law of Moses. They are cherry-picking
territorial promises without the prerequisites: faith in God of Abraham and
obedience to the Law of God and Law of Moses. They tell the fairy tales
about being chosen nation of God without the faith and Law of God.

Like in the times of Ahab, he gathered himself four hundred prophets who
promised the king success against Assyria and only one, Micaiah,
who said that Ahab shall fall (1 Kings 22:13-28, 2 Chronices 18:22-27).

From the evidence in the Scripture we know that Ahab did not return
from Ramoth Gilead, hi died and dogs licked his blood and harlots bathed
in his blood while they were washing the wagon in which he died.

in the LORD God Merciful, Longsuffering
Amen
