The Death of Communism
The Resurrection of The Czar
(Gog of the Land of Magogue)

From the article entitled, "Russian Patriarch Wants Lenin Moved" which we have already written an introduction to, we move through various stages of this continuing saga which is best represented by the titles of the articles. They are:

We have come a long way from the Russian Orthodox Patriarch's desire to move Lenin, to the vow of Yeltsin, a freely elected president of Russia, to bury him and rid the state of communism as a power. From this information, we can freely state that Yeltsin plans and promises to bury the communist revolution at the feet of the Russian czar. It is very interesting that Lenin himself stated he would like to be buried in St. Petersburg, which is the city which was named for Peter the Great, whose Will explaining how the Russians would acquire world domination is set out in our website. It is worthwhile realizing that the communists of the country called the USSR continued to try and accomplish what Peter the Great had stated -- but failed to obtain his ultimate result. Though they killed and buried Tsar Nicholas II, and as best as they could tell, his immediate family, one of his descendants will end up burying communism under his feet. It is very interesting that Dr. John Thomas has specifically stated that "Nicolas, or a successor [seeing there are rules on the succession from one czar or monarch to another, it follows that as long as czar Nicholas II had a descendant, he owned the right of succession], will be both Emperor of Germany and Autocrat of All the Russias." This statement is found in Elpis Israel (page 484, 1904 Edition), below:

"Son of Man, set thy face against Gogue, the emperor of Germany, Hungary, &c., and autocrat of Russia, Muscovy, and Tobolskoi [Ezek. 38:2], and prophecy against him, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold I am against thee, O Gogue, autocrat of Russia, Moscovy, and Tobolskoi [Ezek. 38:3]: and I will turn thee about, and put a bit into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth from the north parts, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them accoutred with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords [Ezek. 38:4]: among whom shall be Persians, Ethiopians, and Libyans; all of them with shields and helmet [Ezek. 38:5]: French and Italians, &c.; Circassians, Cossacks, and the Tartar hordes of Usbeck, &c.: and many people not particularly named besides [Ezek. 38:6]. Be thou prepared; prepare thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee; and be thou Imperial Chief to them." [Ezek. 38:7]

From these premises, then, I think, there cannot be the shadow of a doubt that the autocrat of Russia, when he shall have attained to the plenitude of his power and dominion, is the subject of the prophecy contained in the thirty-eighth and thirty-ninth of Ezekiel. This personage at present is only "Autocrat of All the Russias," that is, of Ros, Mosc, and Tobl; while the emperor of Austria holds the position of the Gogue of Magogue. But, as we have seen elsewhere [page 382, 1st paragraph; page 490, 1st paragraph of Elpis Israel, 1904 edition], the Austrian and German empire is doomed to extinction by fire and sword [now past]; so that when this is broken up the Gogueship will be assumed by the autocrat, or "prince of Ros, Mosc, and Tobl." [Ezek. 38:2-3; 39:1]

Having proved, as I think, that the phrase "Gogue of the land of Magogue" [Ezek. 38:2] signifies Emperor of Germany, and that the particular emperor referred to will also be the "prince of Ros, Mosc, and Tobl" [Ezek. 38:2-3; 39:1] -- that is, that at some time hereafter, and that not far off, Nicolas, or a successor, will be both Emperor of Germany and Autocrat of All the Russias -- I proceed to remark that, although the Son of Man is his conqueror, he is to be antagonized by another power before he comes to fight his last battle, in which he loses both his life and crown...

Though we can see many important points are made in the above quotation, the one thing that must be noticed is that Gog is not only the autocrat of Russia, but emperor of Germany. This statement is very important because Yeltsin's candidate for the future czar, and which is agreed to by the Russian Patriach of the Orthodox Church, is Grand Duke Georgi Mikhailovich Hohenzollern Romanov, who is both a Romanov and an Hohenzollern. By way of information, the following is from Webster's Third New International Dictionary Unabridged:

Hohenzollern: of or relating to a German princely family founded about the 11th century that furnished kings of Prussia from 1701-1918 and German emperors from 1871-1918

See Hohenzollern for more information on the dynasty.

Interestingly enough Prince Georgi turned 19 on March 13th, 1999. Thus, he has reached the age of majority and is to be enrolled at some point, if not already, in a Russian military school which is the traditional training for a tsarist heir. (See the articles entitled, "Yeltsin Welcomes Back Heir to The Tsar" and "Political Intrigue Surrounds House of Romanov"). With that training, he would actually be able to lead the army if he ascends the throne as czar. Of course, Dr. Thomas in the quotation above indicates that he is leading the Gogian host when he loses his life at Armageddon. As we have seen, he is both from the royal family of Germany (his title: prince of Germany), the Hohenzollerns, and the royal family of Russia (title: Grand Duke and heir to the throne), the Romanovs, and thus he is Gog of the land of Magogue from his birth or natural descent. It seems phenomenal that this person has the ability to fulfil Scriptural prophecy so accurately.

With the above points behind us, we would like to refer to all the Christadelphians who have in some measure abandoned the Scriptural teachings of Dr. Thomas, and in fact, ignored the actual words of Yahweh as well. At the time of Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich, or the Third Kingdom, there were those Christadelphians who tried to apply these prophecies to his attempt to conqueror the world. Of course, all their efforts failed because not only did he not succeed, but he did not fulfil the details of prophecies in the Scriptures. However, they obviously were so anxious for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ, they went against their better judgment and were proved wrong. Remember as a background, Czar Nicholas II and hence, the Romanov family were no longer involved in the rulership of the Soviets, thus they abandoned Dr. Thomas' position on the Russians as well. Of course, we then had those Christadelphians which quite commonly tried to fit the facts of the Soviet existence to the prophecy as well. Again, this is due to the desire of the soon return of the Lord Jesus Christ and the analyzing of current events unto that end. In fact, they constantly referred to the USSR as Russia and the communist or soviet leader as the "king of a fierce countenance" or the "king of the north". Again, the facts of Scripture were totally ignored. They tried to talk about the king of the north or the king of a fierce countencance as the soviet leader. But the Bible nonetheless called this person a "king". How can you have the Soviet leader being referred to as a "king" when he had overthrown the throne in Russia, when communism did not permit the existance of a king when Marxism, in working out its theory, excluded a monarch or ruler and the withering away of the state. (Also, in the case of Adolf Hitler, we did not have a nobleman from the line of the kaisers, but a mere common man and hence, he did not fulfil the statements of Scripture that the leader was a "king of a fierce countenance" or the "king of the north." In addition, Hitler was not from the Russian line either and therefore could not be "Gog of the Land of Magogue." Rather than having Russia in charge of Germany, you had Germany seeking to destroy Russia.) All of these facts were ignored because these individuals desired the return of the Lord at that time.

Even though they would claim Dr. Thomas' understanding as their own, nonetheless, they had to doctor the doctor. The fact is, and reality proves it to be true, that Dr. Thomas did not need to be doctored at all. The USSR has crumbled and Russia has once more gained the ascendency. The sickle and hammer no longer fly over the USSR, but the czarist flag of Peter the Great over the Russian Federation. The passport of the USSR has been done away and the Russian passport has taken its place with the czarist double headed eagles. The formally depressed state of the Russian Orthodox Church now sees it in the ascendancy once again. As we have seen the head of the Russian Orthodox church states that the czar is the head of the church. Politics in Russia makes it clear that Yeltsin wants to bury not only Lenin -- the symbol of the Bolshevick revolution -- but the whole communist party as well. Russian politics (and I must emphasize Russian, and not USSR politics) with Yeltsin taking the lead, has seen czar Nicholas II and his family buried in St. Petersburg. Also, during this time period, the names of the cities have changed back to those under czarist Russia rather than those which they acquired from the Soviets.

Lastly, the Nazi party, which sought to destroy the communists under Hitler, are now linked to the Russian Orthodox Church and a czar. (See the news article entitled, "Russian Police, Neo-Nazi Clash After Pro-Csar Rally Is Prevented"). Of course, this would find complete agreement on their part with the destruction of the communist party, which their forebearers sought to do. It seems strange to look at the flag of the neo-Nazis in Russia containing the swastika growing out of the cross. Thus we have church and state being linked together. Without any further ado, we can readily see that Dr. Thomas was quite right and quite accurate when it came to his explanations of the Scriptures.
