Armageddon—When?
Over the centuries, a pressing question that has generated endless speculation has been, When will Armageddon come? Examining the book of Revelation in the light of other parts of the Bible can help us determine the timing of this crucial battle. Revelation 16:15 links Armageddon with Jesus’ coming as a thief. That word picture is also used by Jesus in describing his coming to execute judgment on this system of things.—Matthew 24:43, 44; 1 Thessalonians 5:2.
As shown by the fulfillment of Bible prophecies, since 1914 we have been living in the last days of this system of things. Marking the final part of the last days will be the period that Jesus called the “great tribulation.” The Bible does not say how long that period will be, but the calamities associated with it will be worse than anything the world has ever seen. That great tribulation will culminate at Armageddon.—Matthew 24:21, 29.
Since Armageddon is “the war of the great day of God the Almighty,” there is nothing that humans can do to postpone it. Jehovah has set an “appointed time” for that war to start. “It will not be late.”—Habakkuk 2:3.

the world will never end. when Jehovah had the flood in Noah's day, he did not destroy the earth, he only destroyed the wicked people, so why would Jehovah destroy the earth that he made now. Jehovah is going to destroy the wicked again and we will live on a Paradise earth that Adam and Eve lost. if Adam and Eve had listened to Jehovah and not the devil they would be alive today. but they disobeyed Jehovah. we as Jehovah Witnesses do not know when they day will be. only Jehovah knows. we have to wait for him. we as Jehovah Witnesses are imperfect just like anyone else. learn what the word cult means. a cult worships man and live together. we live in 236 lands and live in our own homes. we come and go as we please. we work and pay bills just like you do. we also live with our own families. also since 1914 many things have been happening. I became a Jehovah Witness in 1990 and have seen many things. many earthquakes in one place after another, Tasmania. read 2 timothy 3 verse 1-5. also read Matthew 24 verses 4-14 and you will see these things happening
