THE GREAT BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON quotes
1) “Armageddon” itself translates “a symbolic name” (see Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, #717).
2) “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.” Revelation 16:13-16.
3) “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Revelation 12:7-9.
4) "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal [literal], but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds [of sin];) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience (not let it happen again), when your obedience is fulfilled." 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.
5) Satan said: “Ye shall not surely die” (Genesis 3:4), meaning you can disobey God and still live forever = Immortality of the soul.
God said: “in the day that thou eatest thereof [of the tree of knowledge of good and evil] thou shalt surely die” (Genesis 2:17).
6) “...all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, [are caused] to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name” (Revelation 13:16-17). Any who refuse to do so “should be killed” (Revelation 13:15).
“...here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus” (Revelation 14:12).
7) The Beast which ruled for 1260 prophetic days (Revelation 12:6), or 3 1/2 prophetic years (Revelation 12:14), or 42 prophetic months (Revelation 13:3) -- each totaling 1260 literal years (see Numbers 14:34; Ezekiel 4:6), is none other than the Roman Catholic Church.
8) “...they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11).
9) The Bible teaches that God's word is the only supreme authority for all true religious beliefs (see John 5:39; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Isaiah 8:20). It is this simple understanding and wise knowledge that sets people free from bondage to all error and false doctrines (see John 8:32).
10) Nearly “all the world wondered after the Beast” (Revelation 13:3).
11) A prophet is one who claims to have received true messages from God, and then relays these messages to others (see Numbers 12:6; Deuteronomy 18:22). So a false prophet would then be someone who claims to be speaking true messages from God, when in reality they are speaking error (see Jeremiah 14:14).
12) He that offends “in one point” becomes “guilty of [breaking] all” the commandments (see James 2:10). Thus by not keeping even one of God’s commandments you are actually showing contempt for the whole law as well as for its Author or God Himself, because your influence and example is on the side of transgression and thus is for the author of sin, or the Devil himself.
13) “Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” Romans 6:16.
14) “And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.” Daniel 12:1.
“When once the master of the house is risen up...he shall say, I tell you, I know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.” Luke 13:25,27.
“Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers...the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low....He (Christ) will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of His people shall He take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us: this is the Lord, we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.” Isaiah 25:5,8-9.
15) Live “by every word of God that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4; Deuteronomy 8:3).
16) “Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of live, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.” Revelation 22:14-15.
So: “How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him.” 1 Kings 18:21.
“And if it seem evil unto YOU to serve the Lord, choose YOU this day whom ye will serve...but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the Lord…” Joshua 24:15-16.
