Revelation 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. 13 Then I saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 They are demonic spirits that perform signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty.
15 “Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”
16 Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
Here's where I got my commentary.Its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared: If the Euphrates were dried up and made a road, massive armies from the east (nations such as China, India, and Japan) could move westward with ease.
Some speculate on the reason these armies of the east come westward. Some think it is to wipe out Israel, or to rebel against a European-based world leader (the Antichrist). Ultimately, they come to do battle against God and His Messiah (Psalm 2).
Please go read the commentary on these verses for yourself. They are way over my paygrade. OK... This is about end times. All the Christians were taken up from earth a long time ago. Even those who became Christians while Jesus was softening up the warzone making it ready for the invasion have raised their hands and they are protected as well. They will have to explain why it took so long, but they are safe.
Anyone left on earth when the kings are brought to this battle, is fighting on Satan's side. This is not a meeting of the great kings of the world in an attempt to bring peace... It's a gathering of thugs planning the ultimate battle over who really rules earth.
They will fight among themselves for sure.
Each king will want to rule the battle.... so, God will bring them all together to fight it out amongst themselves first... and He'll deal with the one who survives that fight.
Still softening up the war zone....
Killing off the kings....
