Armageddon: The Battle of Armageddon has been portrayed as the war that ends all wars. It has been depicted by many as the final end time war which will be fought between the forces of good and evil. It has also been described by many as the world wide battle that will end all battles. Songs have been written about the Battle of Armageddon. Movies have been made about it. Books have been written about it. The Battle of Armageddon has been described as the most horrific devastating end time battle of all time. Many a sermon has been preached about it from many a pulpit. One preacher wrote the following about the Battle of Armageddon: "The Battle of Armageddon will take place over in the Nation of Israel, in the prophesied Valley of Megiddo. It will occur after the Great Tribulation Period". "There are several Scriptural passages which refer to the same event, but do not use the term; "Armageddon," including the Supper of the Great God (Revelation 19:17), the Valley of Jehoshaphat (Joel 3:2), the Valley of Decision (Joel 3: 13-14), and the Battle of that Great Day of God Almighty (Revelation 16:14). Revelation Chapters 14, 16, 17 and 19 describes Armageddon as a place of great slaughter where troops will be gathered, assembled and pressed together. Nations will be punished for their sins. Those who have received the Mark of the Beast will be judged. The final seven years will begin when the Antichrist and the International Community give their support to the Nation of Israel's right to exist in the land promised to Abraham by Ehyeh. A war will begin from the vicinity of the Euphrates River. The West Bank, (Judea) will become a place of great tribulation."
