Turkey\/Togarmah Stage-setting<\/strong><\/p>\n

By Terry James on November 16, 2025\t<\/p>\n

Stage-setting for the wrap-up of this age leading to the triumphant return of Christ continues briskly. A major member of the Gog-Magog coalition is in the forefront of ongoing volatility in the region involving Israel.<\/p>\n

Over recent years, we\u2019ve examined news about the coming forth of the national entities to the north of Israel that will comprise the Gog-Magog force of Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39. Russia, Iran (Persia) and Turkey (Togarmah) have become increasingly chummy in their cooperative intention to dominate the region. It\u2019s the region in which the tiny, but nuclear-weapons powerful, Israel, stands as the holdup to the big three Gog-Magog nations achieving the domination they desire.<\/p>\n

Russian leadership has, off and on, been semi-friendly to Israel, with their hostility to the Jewish state\u2019s existence veiled to some extent. Since the shah was dethroned, Iran, of course, has been increasingly hostile and even directly threatening to Israel, with chants of \u201cdeath to the big Satan!\u201d (America) and \u201cDeath to the little Satan!\u201d (Israel).<\/p>\n

Regarding the third member of this diabolist triad, Turkey has been more or less secretly seething with disdain for God\u2019s chosen nation while embracing Western ways\u2014even joining NATO, as we know. But now Turkey is making moves to directly insinuate its influence into the region that threatens to disrupt Israel\u2019s security.<\/p>\n

The following report provides insight:<\/p>\n

Turkey is positioning itself to play a central role in postwar Gaza and hosted a high-level meeting this week in Istanbul focused on the future governance and reconstruction of Gaza.<\/p>\n

Representatives from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan, Pakistan, and Indonesia attended the talks, which also addressed plans for an international stabilization force to be authorized by the United Nations Security Council.<\/p>\n

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan told reporters that discussions among Muslim countries are ongoing and that any troop deployment will depend on the final UN framework.<\/p>\n

\u201cCountries will decide on participation once a structure is agreed,\u201d he said. Fidan added that Hamas had expressed willingness to transfer administrative authority to a Palestinian-led committee once reconstruction efforts begin.<\/p>\n

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, speaking separately to delegates from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, praised what he described as Hamas\u2019 commitment to the ceasefire and readiness to abide by the emerging arrangement.<\/p>\n

Turkey\u2019s ambitions have drawn mixed reactions in Israel, where officials view Ankara\u2019s involvement with caution due to its long history of supporting Hamas and its frequent criticism of Israeli policy.<\/p>\n

Though Turkey remains a NATO member and a U.S. ally, its alignment with Qatar\u2014another state seen as close to Hamas\u2014has raised questions about its impartiality. (\u201cTurkish officials say Hamas is ready to give up control of Gaza,\u201d World Israel News, November 4, 2025)<\/p>\n

Ezekiel, as recorded in chapters 38 and 39 of the book by his name, points out the nations that will at some point assault Israel with the intention of \u201ctaking great spoil,\u201d as it is given in the KJV. The primary nations to lead that coalition have drawn together over the past few years, with Turkey (Togarmah) aligning more and more with the fanatic Islamist leadership of Iran (Persia) in hatred of Israel. There will come a time, the prophet says, that only God Himself will be able to save His chosen people from being overrun in the great Gog-Magog attack.<\/p>\n

Dr. Thomas Ice, director of the Pre-Trib Research Center, in his many prophetic studies, has dealt with this soon-to-eventuate assault and all it entails. He includes in the following some findings of fellow prophecy scholar Dr. Mark Hitchcock:<\/p>\n

\u201cMost Bible scholars and scholars of ancient history relate biblical Togarmah to the ancient Hittite city of Tegarma,\u201d notes Mark Hitchcock, \u201can important city in eastern Cappadocia (modern Turkey).\u201d But while scholars have differed slightly on the exact location of ancient Togarmah, concludes Hitchcock, \u201cit is always associated with a city or district within the boundaries of the modern nation of Turkey.\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n

The last few years has seen an Islamic majority emerge in Turkey\u2019s Parliament and an Islamic Prime Minister is now in place. The breakup of the former Soviet Union included the independence of five Islamic republics: Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kirghizia, Turkmenistan, and Tajikistan. Hitchcock notes that \u201cTurkey has clearly been drawn to these former Soviet republics for economic reasons, Turkey also shares strong linguistic and ethnic ties with these nations\u2026<\/p>\n

Turkey sees itself as the economic developer of the vast natural resources like gold, silver, uranium, oil, coal, and natural gas that are found in these five new states\u2026 Once Turkey is spurned by Europe, she will have motive enough to enter into league with Russia and their Islamic brethren which will set the stage for the fulfillment of this prophecy. (The Pre-Trib Research Center, https:\/\/www.pre-trib.org)<\/p>\n

Additionally, in the accumulating further evidence showing relationship to the Gog-Magog coalition, Turkey has issued arrest warrants for Israel\u2019s leaders. The country accuses Benjamin Netanyahu and thirty-six other Israelis of \u201csystematic\u201d genocide and crimes against humanity. (Rapture Ready News November 8, 2025)<\/p>\n

With the rapid developments in and around God\u2019s chosen nation\u2014in conjunction with the geopolitical evil, socio-cultural wickedness, religious deception, and technological progression\u2014Turkey\u2019s insertion into the prophetic picture is yet another strong indicator of just how near the Rapture must be.<\/p>\n

Our prayerful hope is that you will want to be part of that stupendous event when Christ calls all believers into the clouds of Glory. Here is how to make sure you\u2019re not left behind when Jesus shouts, \u201cCome up here!\u201d<\/p>\n

That if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and will believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9\u201310)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
