The reason I took an interest and made it a hobby to
research “Armageddon” is because I study the Holy Bible, and in there, it talks
a lot about the end of everything. And I am interested in “The end”. There is
an end to everything, including my life here on earth and I’ve grown obsessed
with seeing to the end of things. The end of everything is as real as your face
in the mirror. So how secure are you when the end comes? That’s why it’s so
important for me to know that I will be okay after I die.
In multiple places in the Holy Bible, in the Old Testament
and the New Testament, including Jesus’s quotes and teachings, there is
warnings about an end. But I will not be citing scripture because “It’s not a
reliable source” per scholar standards and per instructed class assignment
directions. Instead, I will be using secular means to point to prove
Armageddon. So, I look at many separate places to see signs of the end-times. A
quote by Exley says: "A lot of
people might think, 'The end's coming, let's go to party’, but we're commanded
by God to warn people. I wish I could just be like everybody else, but it's so
much better to know that when the end comes, you'll be safe." (Exley,2022)
It is common knowledge that if you do not learn from your
mistakes, you’re bound to repeat it, same it is with history, if we keep
repeating the same mistakes then we are bound to repeat them. As Albert
Einstein put it, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again
expecting different results.” (Albert Einstein summary Britannica, T.
Editors of Encyclopedia 2021, April 29). We must learn from our past and we
must see what we have been-warned about in our past. That way we know what our
future holds. That is why I urge you to study “end-time” prophecy so that you
can prepare, spiritually.
What is so fun and exciting about
my hobby researching Armageddon is that Armageddon pinpoints a place and time
when everything is coming to a climax. Time, life, everything as we know it
will come to a clash. I want to be ready and not be-caught by surprise when it
happens. Because I know it is in our lifetime. As is described by (Lerner, R. E.
2022) “Armageddon, the place: the Palestinian city of Megiddo, and the time:
will be when the next battle is fought on those crossroads of Egypt and Syria,

where battles are
being fought today. But the next major ones will be fought by God, His angels
and Satan and his demons. This place has been a hotbed of battle for centuries.”
It doesn’t cost anything to learn
and seek out the truth. The truth is out there but you must be willing to want
it and seek it out. You will be surprised to know how much our creator God
wants to teach you. And we have the tools to do it. The internet is amazing.
God will weed out the lies from the truth once you learn to trust Him. It is
easy to pick-up this hobby because all you must do to be “Born again” in
spirit, is accept the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ’s death on the
cross and the resurrection on the 3rd day. He did that for the sin
debt owed by humanity to a Holy, Righteous, just God, That Jesus paid for with
His life. Washing the worlds sin away with His blood. The only thing for anyone
to do is accept, repent of a life of sin, receive forgiveness for your sin, and
receive the gift of salvation and eternal life. Then being sinless and
“born-again” of spirit, God the Father will start to show you the truth from
the lies. Then you will be able to see what is really going on in the spirit. It
is free, it doesn’t cost anything, Jesus Christ paid it ALL on the cross
already. Giving us the ability to approach the throne of God boldly as His
children and asking Father God anything and He will teach you everything you
want to know.
The benefits to having a personal
and intimate relationship with your creator through Jesus Christ is that you
will never be in the dark, never will be ignorant of the truth, and you’ll
always have access to God the creator of everything 24/7, you will have access
to God that knows the beginning and the end, who is the alpha and the omega, is
first and last. Plus, when you shed this shell that we call a body, we will be
where He is forever. And Jesus Christ is the only way there. Jesus Christ is
the “Bridge” The “Door” The “Gate”. There is no other way to eternity with the
creator of everything. But there are all sorts of ways to eternity without him,
in complete separation from Him, complete darkness and sadness and the worst of
everything forever, it is called hell.

So, in
conclusion, Studying Armageddon, or studying “end-time” prophecy is wise,
because it will lead you to realize that what we have been-told about our
future repeatedly, has been confirmed and verified repeatedly by actual events
coming to fruition hundreds even thousands of years after its announcement. All
Bible prophecies have happened that were-predicted by intimate friends of God,
whom we call prophets. There are still more to come, Armageddon is just one of
them. We as humans are not just “Star dust” floating in space on a little rock
called earth. We are a significant part of an Intelligent designer who has told
us about the beginning from the end. He (Yahweh, God) holds no secrets that are
beneficial to our existence. Acknowledgement and recognition of whom He, (our
creator) is, and what He has done to have personal and intimacy relationship
with each one of us is, as a loving father would wish to have with His
children, is the beginning of wisdom.
He, our Father God did not create
programs, or robots, and living creations are not his puppets or controlled
mechanisms. He created us like Him, to choose and decide and will for self for
Him. Do we choose to live for others, or
we chose to live selfishly and only to gain and covet and benefit ourselves? To
be our own little gods, worshipping ourselves? That is where sin starts. Which
is the natural fallen state of humankind, which Jesus Christ came to fix. God
made it, Adam broke it, Jesus Christ fixed it. The fix, it is a very intimate
and personal choice. Are we willing to live to die for someone else, Like Jesus
Christ did? Will Armageddon happen because we choose to kill for gain and greed
instead of to love and die for someone else or others? Which is a greater reward.
Eternity for after shedding this shell of a body, and honor dying for someone
else or something meaningful is such a formidable way to die. I would rather
die in honor than die in greed and selfishness only for myself. But that is the
Yaqui Native American in me. Or is the godly man in me? Or is it Jesus Christ
in me? You say, but I like it better than the other, which seems cowardice to
me. So, when we are “Born Again” we are not alone, your creator, The God of
everything,
YAHWEH Adonai, Elohim Yehua, is His name, is with us, through Jesus Christ His
only begotten Son, even when Armageddon comes. No need to fear anything when He
is with you.
