In Noahs day nobody believed Noah that the world was going to be flooded and they use to laugh at him and his family building the arc. Then the floods can and ever one was sorry that they didn't listen to Noah the preacher, he was not making it up the things he was telling people were the things God told him to tell them. The Bible tells us there will be an armagegdon and that no one knows when it will be, but we need to be on the alert to be ready so that when it does happed we will be able to escape it just like Noah did. Do you laugh at people that try to forwarn you of these dangers and think that they are stupid, or do you think their may be some truth in it? Tell me what you think.

Well in Revelation the battle at "Armageddon" never actually takes place. Armageddon is actually derived from the Hebrew Har-Mageddon which means the mountain of Megiddo. Cf. Revelation 16:13-21. The wrath is frightening but the battle never takes place.

The battle dosen't take place in Rev:16 it takes place in Rev: 17: 15-17. When all the governments go against all religion because god will put it into the governments heads at that time and not before.

But that isn't Armageddon. Har-Mageddon refers to a specific place in Rev. 16:16 where people gathered for battle but where no battle took place because of the seventh bowl.

In Rev 16: they the expressions are inspired by satan and they go forth to the governments of the entire Earth to gather them together for the war of the great day they don't actually start the war then. In Rev 16:15 It reminds us to watch out as it is comeing as a thief in the night and that nobody knows when and that satan is behind the people the proclaimation of peace and security. There is a declarati9on of doome for satan and his seed. When god proclaims "It has come to pass!" It meains there is nothing left to say when the contents of the bowls of god's anger have been publicized to gods satisfation, there will be no delay in his ececuting judgements proclaimed by these messages.
