tie Of God Almighty at Armageddon,
please permit me to set it scripturally
right before "Aunt Belle, thus:
I. For following Scriptural reasons
we know this European war Is no part
of the battle of Armageddon. /. It Is
to be fought only at local one place
called Armageddon. Rev. 1916, and
none of the many battles of this Euro.
pean war have been fought there,
therefore it cannot be Armageddon
2. 1t, Armgeddon. is called the bat
tie of that great day of God Almighty,
Rev. 1914, and so it is the Battle of
God, and His Lamb Son. 3 On
Gods side Armageddon is to be fought
alone and only by Christ, whose name
is called, "The Word of God," Rev.
1913, and on His vesture and on His
thigh a name written, King of Kings
and Lord of Lords, (verse 16): "And
the armies which were in Heaven"
(verse H. J for they followed Him on
white horses, like His white horse
(verses lila Not one single mortal
human man will be in this battle of
Armageddon on Gods side, for all His
armies are to come to that battle Of
Armageddon from Heaven itself, there
fore they are celestial beings. 4th.
John saw Heaven opened and saw
Christ and His armies of Heaven come
out of Heaven on their white horses.
Rev. 19:11-14, and so we just absol-
utely know all of Christ's soldiers are
celestial soldiers and not one of such
soldiers are fighting on either side in
this European war, therefore we know
that none of theil many battles can be
called Armageddon 5. Armageddon
is to be but one battle, Rev. t6:14,
while those of Europe have been many
battles, therefore they cannot be the
one battle of Armageddon. 6. The
weapon with which Christ and His c.
lestial armies are to fight this battle
of Armageddon prove beyond all doubt
that this European war is no part of
Armageddon, nor any akin to it, for
they fight with all kinds, sorts and
sizes of CANAL weapons, but the bat
tie of Armageddon is to be fought on
ly and alone by and with the sword,
word of God, which proceeded out of
His, Christ's, mouth, Rev. 1921, and
go we absolutely know that this Euro
pean war has no sort of connection
with Armageddon. 7th. In all the
many battles fought in Europe, they
bury their dead, but none of the dead of
Armageddon are to be buried, for of
their dead bodies, even those of their
horses, God makes supper for the
fowls, buzzards, to eat, Rev. 19:18-1o,
therefore any fool ought to know that
Armageddon is not this European war,
and if he don't know it he may know
there is something worse the matter
with him than simply being fool.
The devil his deluded him. g. At the
very beginning of the Armageddon
battle, the beast and false prophet
are both to be taken and cast alive in
to lake of fire burning with brim-
stone, Rev. 1920, that is, cast alive
in their mortal, human bodies. into
this lake Of fire without dying, and
without having their bodies immor-
talized by the Resurrection, as all
other wicked persons will have theirs
immortalized, and we all know that
no such thing occurred at the begin
ming Of the European war If two
men had been cast alive into the lake
of fire at the beginning of the Euro
pean war, 1t would have been reported
in all our papers, under the biggest
headlines we ever saw, am sure all
these eight proofs indisputably plove
that this European war is in no sense, |
not even remotely. Armageddon.
H. After Christ is to cast these two
men into the lake of fire, and after an
angel binds Satan for a thousand |
years. Rev. 20:1-3, Christ is to reign /
that thousand years in His millenial
reign, after which Satan is to be loos-
ed from prison little season to de-
ceive the nations and to gather them
together to battle, Cog and Magog,
the number of whom is as the sand of
the sea, and when they compass the
camp of the Saints, fire is to come
down from God out of Heaven, and
devour them, and then the devil, too,
is to be cast into the lake of fire and
birthstone, where the beast and the
false prophet are, and according to
the Greek, they, the beast, false prop
het and the devil, are to be torment
ed day and night for ever and ever,'
Rev. 20:810. Thus we see these two
men. the beast and the false prophet,
have been, or will be, in this lake of
fire and birthstone, over one thousand
years, only in their mortal bodies,
still unconsumed, unannihilated.
Well, if in their incorruptible inward
men, Pet. 3-4, which inward men
are, according to Peters Greek word,
"aphtharto, ipcorruptible. immor-
tal," their mortal bodies could con-
sciously endure such torment over a
thousand years, we know that all i'm
mortal souls, clothed in the resurrec-
ton with immortal bodies, l Cor. 15:
a4-54, can and will so endure t etern-
ally, for they will be doubly immortal
to these two men.
Thus we see Russellism won't do.
