The Bible’s answer

The battle of Armageddon refers to the final war between human governments and God. These governments and their supporters oppose God even now by refusing to submit to his rulership. (Psalm 2:2) The battle of Armageddon will bring human rulership to an end.​—Daniel 2:​44.

The word “Armageddon” occurs only once in the Bible, at Revelation 16:16. Prophetically, Revelation shows that at “the place that is called in Hebrew Armageddon,” “the kings of the entire inhabited earth” will be gathered “together to the war of the great day of God the Almighty.”​—Revelation 16:14.

Who will fight at Armageddon? Jesus Christ will lead a heavenly army to victory over God’s enemies. (Revelation 19:11-​16, 19-​21) These enemies include those who oppose God’s authority and who treat God with contempt.​—Ezekiel 39:7.

Will Armageddon literally be fought in the Middle East? No. Rather than being restricted to one area, the battle of Armageddon will encompass the whole earth.​—Jeremiah 25:32-​34; Ezekiel 39:17-​20.

Armageddon, sometimes rendered “Har–​Magedon” (Hebrew Har Meghiddohnʹ), means “Mountain of Megiddo.” Megiddo was once a city in the territory of ancient Israel. History tells of decisive battles that were fought in its vicinity, including some that are recorded in the Bible. (Judges 5:​19, 20; 2 Kings 9:​27; 23:29) However, Armageddon cannot refer to the literal area near ancient Megiddo. There is no large mountain there, and even the entire adjoining Low Plain of Jezreel could not contain all those who will fight against God. Instead, Armageddon is the worldwide situation in which the nations assemble in their last stand against rule by God.

What will conditions be like during the battle of Armageddon? While we do not know how God will use his power, he will have at his disposal weapons such as those he has used in the past​—hail, earthquake, flooding downpour, fire and sulfur, lightning, and disease. (Job 38:22, 23; Ezekiel 38:19, 22; Habakkuk 3:​10, 11; Zechariah 14:12) In confusion, at least some of God’s enemies will kill each other, yet they will ultimately realize that it is God who is fighting against them.​—Ezekiel 38:21, 23; Zechariah 14:13.

Will Armageddon be the end of the world? It will not be the end of our planet, since the earth is mankind’s eternal home. (Psalm 37:29; 96:10; Ecclesiastes 1:4) Rather than destroying humanity, Armageddon actually saves it, because “a great crowd” of God’s servants will survive.​—Revelation 7:​9, 14; Psalm 37:34.

Besides referring to the earth, though, the word “world” in the Bible sometimes refers to wicked human society opposed to God. (1 John 2:​15-​17) In this sense, Armageddon will bring “the end of the world.”​—Matthew 24:3, King James Version.

When will Armageddon take place? When discussing the “great tribulation” that culminates in the battle of Armageddon, Jesus said: “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Matthew 24:21, 36) Nevertheless, the Bible does show that Armageddon takes place during Jesus’ invisible presence, which began in 1914.​—Matthew 24:37-​39.

There are lots and lots of sacred secrets!

If look at what Jesus said concerning the hour or day which he is not sure of... you will notice the unseriousness of him with his disciple. JESUS COMPARED HIM SELF WITH HIS FATHER AS ONE how come he suddenly deny his one God personality... from his own beloved disciples in something he knows that is very essensial to them... thats shows the unseriousness of him with them.

Well the Jews were expecting a Messiah who will lead them to war against their enemies like David {John 6:15} and Jesus has proved to be the most powerful prophet in the history of their nation so they're annoyed with the things he is saying telling them they need to initiate God who doesn't want anyone to be destroyed the comparison Jesus made really got on their nerves though yet in their own scriptures there is Moses whom God made a God {Exodus 7:1} and God also referred to their rulers as Gods {Psalms 82:6} God also foretold that the christ will be a mighty God in their midst! Isaiah 9:6

So they have no reason whatsoever to attack Jesus who told them that himself and God are on the same page that's what he prayed for that his disciples should also be on the same page just as himself is with his father!

YES!

Nonsense as usual. Armageddon or no Armageddon, live ready. The hope of every Christian is resurrection not death.


Two things that do not affect your salvation:

1. How you were born. If you are born out of wedlock, by prostitute, in a palace, by a pastor or GB member, dumped on the dunghill. God doesn't care.



2. How you die. It doesn't matter whether you rest in peace or die violently. Where you die in Armageddon or WWIV, by ritual killers, witches, stray bullets, drowned etcetera. God doesn't care.
- And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Acts.17.30
-And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev.20.12 - 13

I don't disturb my head or ruffle my peace for any Armageddon.

Anytime I live ready. Prepare to meet your God.

Can you quote where Jesus specifically said "I am God"

Can you quote where Jesus specifically said "I am God"

MATT 7 21~23 the truth is Jesus never specifically said "I AM GOD" (the more reason his ordinary man) but he made references that attributed him as a GOD divine.. if you fellow his philosophy attentively you will observe that all his words and teachings is base on faith. which he said that if you believe you can do likewise as him.. JESUS IS NOT GOD AND NEVER IS GOD.... his believe as a divine being (is from his mental reasoning just like a man...and was base on a divine call to teach his own personal philosophy out of from the scribs and levites doctrine) he never want to be praise for his earthly work. churchians are still teaching Jesus as a God. (issue with christianity.)

But you once argue here that the war of Armageddon is spiritual and not PHYSICAL.

You see the reason why it's not good to be lying and not even follow your own organisation teaching...

Aemmyjah:
Nevertheless, the Bible does show that Armageddon takes place during Jesus’ invisible presence, which began in 1914.​—Matthew 24:37-​39.

So the Armageddon has even taken place since 1914.

This is not funny anymore.

As you mentioned Armageddon with 1914 he taught you're implying that it has taken place already. That's why most of them can't gain insight. Jesus foretold that when he begin his kingdom rule in heaven (1914) the following events will lead to the end of all badness which is Armageddon! Matthew 24:7-14

But an antagonist who already concluded in his mind that you're wrong won't listen to gain insight!

Nothing took place in 1914 about God's Word.

But from this write up, it stated Armageddon TAKES PLACE from Jesus invisible presence began in 1914.

Go back to your elementary English text book.

There's a difference between Armageddon WILL TAKE PLACE during Jesus invisible presence which began in 1914 (which means the period of Jesus invisible presence is a long one and the time for Armageddon is unknown but yet will happen before that period ended) and Armageddon TAKES PLACE during Jesus invisible presence which began in 1914.

This is a simple present tense for something such as:

1. something that is true in the present:
I'm nineteen years old.
I'm a student.
He lives in London.

2. something that happens regularly in the present:
°I play football every weekend.
°Victor loves going to the Gym every Tuesday

3. something that is always true:
°The human body contains 206 bones.
°Light travels at almost 300,000 kilometres per second.
°Sun rises from the East and sets in the West
