Armageddon.  That is the storm that will fell religion in her last stand.  And not just religion, but all the nations of this world that are under Satan the god of this world. (2 Corinthians 4:4) That includes Russia, and her red religion of Communism. (Daniel 2:44) Jehovah God speaks of Armageddon as a storm, and of Christ, the Leader of His angelic hosts at that time, as a king coming out of the east.

It is true, with an acute housing shortage, oppressive landlords, and ruthless real estate sharks abroad in the earth, few people are able to bring these outdoor pleasantries into their homes. But rejoice in the knowledge that these killing conditions are about to end. Armageddon will shortly cleanse this earth of all wickedness, and the doers of the same, and make way for God’s New World of Theocratic rule, under which people of good-will will enjoy the housing blessings long ago promised in the holy prophecies.

When ”Father” Gannon, the president of the Jesuit university of Fordham, declared that ”a nearly desperate world stares with fascination toward Armageddon” he referred to an atomic war between nations. In truth and in fact the world is face to face with the Armageddon spoken of in the last book of the Bible, The Revelation. But because the people are blind and because the ‘blind are leading the blind’ (Matthew 15:14) they fail to see this real danger ahead the ditch of Armageddon, which is ”the battle of that great day of God Almighty”.  (Revelation 16:14, 16)

Awake!  February 22, 1948 p. 10

 

Most manifestly Easter is of the Devil from its beginning, though in recent centuries it parades before the people as a ”Christian” festival. It is not Christian, not even in name, and its celebration is a reproach upon Jehovah God and His Christ. Consequently, as the Easter parade marches on to its final destruction at Armageddon, true and sincere Christians will remain on the sidelines, clean and separate from these pagan abominations.

It is an understanding of the prophecies of the Bible that gives them vision to see the corning destruction of Armageddon. They call out the warning, and urge others to join them in the safety heights. They do it in obedience to God’s command; they do it out of love for their neighbors. They serve others with the spiritual food from God’s Word to strengthen them for the hard climb up the narrow trail to safety and salvation from Armageddon’s flood of destruction.

Awake!  July 22, 1948 p. 12 

 

The warning of Jesus is not to delay until it is the most disadvantageous time to flee to safety. The tribulation, begun A.D. 1914, will not end until the universal war of Armageddon is fought between Jehovah’s heavenly forces under Christ ·and the Devil’s forces. The fact that now we, with eyes enlightened by the Holy Scriptures of prophecy, see the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place in defiance of Jehovah God is a certain sign that the battle of Armageddon is not far off and that now in the present advantageous period of God’s long-suffering and mercy is the time to flee to the mountains, that is, to flee out of Christendom and to God’s place of protection symbolized by the mountains of His creation. Do not wait until the zero hour for Armageddon to begin strikes under conditions pictured by the winter and the sabbath.

Then they have the privilege of explaining it is because the Devil is the god of this world, and that he has been given the opportunity of proving his challenge to God that He could not put men on the earth who would be wholly obedient to Him as he, the Devil, would get them all just as he did Adam and Eve; that the Devil has been proved to be a liar and will soon be destroyed in Armageddon with all his organization, visible and invisible; that thereafter the kingdom for which Christ taught His disciples to pray will take full sway over earth’s affairs in power and great glory; that very shortly what Peter wrote about, viz., “new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness,” will be here.
