ARMAGEDDON is probably the most well-known PROPHETIC EVENT to people around the world, and it lies just ahead on the horizon of this world.
Here is a Biblical lesson on this future event God has for humanity. “The time has come for the fighting of that final war of the age, the name of which has become a byword among men since John first wrote it down–Armageddon! God has chosen the Holy Land as the stage upon which two crucial events occur, one on a mountain and one on a plain. Mount Calvary and the Plain of Megiddo are the two altars of sacrifice that dominate the history of the world.
• On Mount Calvary, grace redeemed the world by the sacrifice of God’s Son;
• on the plains of Megiddo, vengeance offers up the world’s armies in a sacrifice of doom.
• Both are blood baths:
• both are the descent of wrath upon sin;
• both are brought about by God’s bitterest foes who work out, despite themselves, God’s perfect and sovereign will.
• Across both can be written the words of Peter, “The Gentiles, and peoples of Israel, were gathered together, for to do whatsoever Thy hand and Thy counsel determined before to be done” (Acts 4:27-28). / From each proceeds a supper: one a feast of remembrance for the people of God, and the other a feast of retribution for the carrion.
• At Calvary, a victorious cry rang out to the gates of heaven, “It is finished!”
• And at Armageddon, an answering cry from the temple gates in glory rings down to earth, “It is done!”
