ARMAGEDDON
A


The Last Confrontation Between God and Man.

Armageddon, which means perhaps, 'the mountain of Megiddo' is situated in the north part of Israel, near the old city of Megiddo, in the valley of Jezreel. Throughout history, this area, being the crossroads of the trade routes through Israel, has been the battleground for invading armies.

Armageddon is mentioned only once in the Bible, in Revelation 16:14-16, and is the place where the nations of the world will be drawn together by God to oppose Christ at his return, and so bring about their own destruction.

"They are spirits of demons performing miraculous signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty…. Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon".

The battle of Armageddon, which will result in the destruction by Christ of all human authority, is described symbolically in Revelation 19:11-21: "I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. 'He will rule them with an iron sceptre.' He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty".
