In the Bible, “Armageddon,” is not the apocalyptic end of life on earth. Contrary to cultural mythologies, Armageddon has nothing to do with an angry Mother Earth exacting dues on us for our ecological negligence and selfish indulgence. It won’t be caused by melting icecaps and glaciers, or by earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, or rampages by biological frankensteins. Nor will the End come when a great Nibiru appears out of a space-time wormhole to slay Goliath Earth with a well-aimed NEO from Mother Cosmos’s davidic slingshot. More mundanely, it won't come with a shower of Allah Akhbar nukes from Tehran when the 12th Imam, the great messianic Mahdi of Muslim eschatology, initiates the end of Western, Christian and Jewish civilization and establishes a universal Islamic kingdom. No. It's not going to happen those ways. Armageddon, in the Bible, is God’s final war that he wages against a coalition of nations because of their unrelenting sinfulness, rebellion against His will, and refusal to obey His Messiah Yeshua (Jesus of Nazareth), whom He sent as agent of human redemption and regeneration. The word “Armageddon” occurs only one time in biblical literature: in the book of Revelation chapter 16 in the New Testament: [13] I saw coming out of the mouth of the Dragon and out of the mouth of the Beast and out of the mouth of the False Prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; [14] for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the War of the great Day of God, the Almighty. . . . [16] And they gathered them together to the place which in Hebrew is called Armageddon.http://www.hebrew-streams.org/works/hebrew/armageddon.html
