Armageddon

The call goes out for the climax of the ages when the Lord gathers the rebellious together and deals with them. The details of this event are throughout God`s word.

`Then I saw an angel standing in the sun;
and he cried with a loud voice to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven,


“Come and gather together for the supper of the great God,
that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men,
the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them,
and the flesh of all people, free and slave, both small and great.”
(Rev. 19: 17 & 18)



The world`s armies have gathered at Armageddon, just north of Israel. (Rev. 16: 16) It is a great plain that stretches right across Israel from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan river. It is also a strategic centre as it is the gateway to Israel from three continents.


From here the armies of the world sweep through the valley of Jezreel and then through Samaria conquering and subduing every town and village, exterminating all Israelis enroute. Finally, this mighty army will encompass the city of Jerusalem, which will eventually be overwhelmed, conquered and looted. (Luke 21: 20)

`And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies,
gathered together to make war against Him
who sat on the horse and against His army.`
(Rev. 19: 19)



The Lord Jesus Christ, King of Kings & Lord of Lords, then comes from heaven with His angelic army in power and great glory.(Rev. 19: 11) They go to Bozrah in Edom, where many Israelities have hidden (Isa. 63: 1) then on to Mount Zion in Jerusalem. (Isa. 31: 40)

`So the Lord of hosts will come down to fight for Mount Zion and for its hill.
Like birds flying about, so will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem.
Defending, He will also deliver it;
passing over, He will preserve it.`
(Isa. 31: 4 –8)



Passing over the valley of Jehoshaphat, (Joel 3: 2) to the Mount of Olives (Zech. 14: 4) the Lord deals with the beast, the false prophet and the armies of the world. (Zech. 14: 12)

`Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence,
by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast.
These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.


And the rest were killed with the sword
which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse.
And all the birds were filled with their flesh.`
(Rev. 19: 20 & 21)
