"It's impossible to understand the meaning of these words unless you understand God's overall plan." - your answer feels like it is running a line dangerously close to eisegesis, where we read our beliefs into scriptural passages, rather than reading meaning out of the passages. | |

It'd be foolish to believe that Luke 16:19-31 is literal, for then we'd have to conclude that the rich man went to hades (Greek: the grave) because he was rich, and the beggar went to a place called Abraham's bosom (not heaven), because he was poor (verse 25). It's clearly a parable regarding the Jewish people (rich man), and the gentiles (beggar), and isn't literal. In Ezek. 38, the mighty horde under Gog is comprised of enemy fighters from countries that are now Muslim nations. | |
