#22 Gog and Megog and the Armageddon Kerfuffle #1

In this episode Neil and discuss Armageddon and Gog and Megog. But we only begin. What we do in that beginning is help you understand the the reason why some scripture especially the futuristic stuff can be so difficult for we Christians to discuss and interpret. It's all about going SLOW enough. We reference the prophecy in Psalm 83 that we discussed last time as an example. Looking forward to you thoughts and opinions!!
