Yes—Les Feldick teaches that Russia is the modern identity of the northern power described in Ezekiel 38–39, which invades Israel in the latter days.
Ezekiel 38–39 describes a great northern confederation that comes against a regathered Israel to take spoil. Les identifies this force with Russia and her satellite nations, and he connects it to the red horse of Revelation 6. God brings the invaders to Israel so that He can display His sovereignty and judge them before the Gentile world.
Ezekiel 38:16 — God says He will bring the northern invader against His land 'in the latter days' so the nations will know Him—this is the central scriptural reason for Russia's role.
Ezekiel 38:12 — This verse reveals the invader's purpose: to take spoil and prey from the restored nation of Israel.
Revelation 6:4 — Les identifies the red horse of Revelation 6 with the Russian-led invasion of Israel.
Ezekiel 38–39 places a great northern invasion at a specific point in the end times. Israel has been gathered out of the nations and is dwelling safely when a coalition from the north—Gog, of the land of Magog—comes against her. The attacker's motive is described in Ezekiel 38:12: 'To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.' Ezekiel 38:5 names some of the allies: 'Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet.' God declares His own purpose in Ezekiel 38:16: 'And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.' The prophecy then records God's judgment: He sends fire on Magog and on those who dwell carelessly in the isles, 'and they shall know that I am the LORD' (Ezekiel 39:6). The King James Bible does not use the English word 'Russia'; that identification comes from Les Feldick's teaching.
Les Feldick teaches that Russia is the modern name of the northern military power described in Ezekiel 38–39. He connects this invasion directly with the red horse of Revelation 6, calling it 'that great Russian invasion' and placing it in the first half of the Tribulation, after Israel signs a seven-year treaty with the Antichrist [Clip 1]. He stresses that God Himself will 'turn the Russian forces away from Western Europe' and bring them down into the Middle East against Israel, accompanied by satellite nations such as Persia (Iran) and Ethiopia [Clip 7]. The invaders' target is a prosperous Israel, and Les says the Western nations under the Antichrist will be so surprised that they can only ask what the invaders think they are doing [Clip 0]. Les also gives his personal speculation—clearly marked as not provable from Scripture—that Russia would unload on America before invading Israel, since America does not appear anywhere in end-times prophecy [Clip 2, Clip 5]. The outcome, however, is certain from Ezekiel 39: God destroys the Russian armies on the hills of Israel and sends fire on their homeland [Clip 5]. Israel must remain intact so that the prophesied invasion can take place [Clip 6].
Les places the invasion early in the Tribulation. He says the first three and a half years begin when the Antichrist signs a seven-year treaty with Israel, and during that period Israel has relative freedom. The 'great Russian invasion' of Ezekiel 38–39 is, in his thinking, the red horse of Revelation 6, which will put Israel in a bind. He even suggests it may come 'probably within the first year of the tribulation.'
Les points to Ezekiel 38:5 and the nations listed with the northern confederation. He identifies Persia as modern Iran and mentions Ethiopia as a former Communist stronghold. He says God will turn the Russian-led forces away from Western Europe—territory belonging to the Antichrist—and bring them down to the mountains of Israel. The invasion is not just Russia alone.
Scripture says they come to take spoil (Ezekiel 38:12). Les observes that Israel is at the forefront of agriculture, technology, and medicine, making her a rich target. He also teaches that God is the One who brings them there: God turns the Russian forces toward Israel so that He can be sanctified before the nations.
God's fury will be against the invaders. Les says God will destroy the Russian armies on the hills of Israel just as He destroyed the Syrians in Elijah's day, and Ezekiel 39 says fire will fall on their homeland. Les contrasts this with a mere military defeat—it is divine judgment.
Les says no. He can find America nowhere in prophecy; the end-time stage involves Western Europe, Russia, the Orient, and Africa. For this reason he speculates—with the disclaimer that it is his own idea—that Russia may strike North America first to remove the only power able to counter it.
Western Nations Caught by Surprise
Les explains that the Western/NATO nations, under the Antichrist, will be caught so off guard by the invasion of Israel that they will have no time to respond militarily and can only ask the invaders' purpose.
Russian Invasion as the Red Horse
Les teaches that the great Russian invasion of Ezekiel 38–39 is the red horse of Revelation 6, occurring in the first half of the Tribulation while Israel has relative freedom under the seven-year treaty.
Russia's Hypothetical First Strike on America
Les speculates, as his own conjecture, that Russia will unload its weapons on North America before invading Israel because America is absent from end-times prophecy.
Only Three End-Time Power Blocs
Les reminds the class that end-time prophecy focuses on Western Europe, the Orient, and parts of Africa, and that Russia and the Western Hemisphere are not part of the final battle.
Red Horse Identification Repeated
Les again ties the red horse of Revelation 6 to the northern invasion of Ezekiel 38–39 and challenges his class to think like a Russian general about the first military move.
God's Judgment on Russia
Les teaches that although he personally thinks Russia may wipe out America first, Ezekiel 39 promises God will destroy the invading armies on Israel's hills and send fire on the Russian homeland.
Israel Must Remain Intact
Les stresses that Israel must remain intact so that the prophesied Russian invasion with her satellite nations can take place in the Middle East.
God Turns Russia Toward Israel
Les teaches that God Himself will turn the Russian forces away from Western Europe and direct them to Israel, accompanied by nations such as Persia (Iran) and Ethiopia.
Ezekiel 38:12: To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
This verse states the invader's motive: to strip Israel of its wealth after the nation has been regathered.
Ezekiel 38:5: Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
Les identifies these names with modern Iran and Ethiopia, showing the coalition is more than Russia alone.
Ezekiel 38:16: And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
God's stated purpose in bringing the northern invaders is to make Himself known to the nations.
Ezekiel 39:6: And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
God's judgment on the invaders includes fire falling on their own homeland.
Revelation 6:4: And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
Les identifies this red horse with the Russian-led invasion of Israel.
No. The King James Version never uses the word 'Russia.' Ezekiel 38 describes Gog and his northern confederation, and Les Feldick equates that power with modern Russia and its allies because of its northern location and role in end-time events.
Ezekiel 38:16 says God Himself brings the invaders against His land 'that the heathen may know me.' Les teaches that God turns the Russian forces away from Europe and uses the invasion to display His sovereignty before the Gentile world.
Les places the invasion early in the Tribulation—probably within the first year—after the Antichrist signs a seven-year treaty with Israel. He identifies the invasion with the red horse of Revelation 6.
He says it is his own speculation, not something he can prove from Scripture. He reasons that Russia would first unload on North America to remove the only nation that could counter it, since America is not found in prophecy.
