Hiya
It is good that you are not burying your head in the sand about world events that some recommend to do in here.
And while some claim that wars have always gone on , so its nothing to be worried about , that is the same attitude as this.
2 Peter 3:3-4 For YOU know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires and saying: "Where is this promised presence of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep [in death], all things are continuing exactly as from creation's beginning."
Do you see why people say things are just the same as they always have been....? Because it is what they desire.
They are not interested in seeing this horrible world done away with as Jehovah God has promised.
A balanced view of history shows that there has been wars around the places over mans history , that is true,.but at what scale have these conflicts been.? - Usually they are relatively minor in relation to the world as a whole.
But since the outbreak of WW1 the whole world was taken from peace to war.
Since 1914 down to today there has only been a handful of days that there hasn't been active warfare participated in some way , on a global scale.
This is a significant departure from ALL previous wars., heralding a significant event.
Matthew 24:3 + 7-8. . .While he was sitting upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: "Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?"
"For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another. All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress.
There is no doubt that we are living in the end time.
What is the END?
Matthew 28:20 . . .¨And, look! I am with YOU all the days until the conclusion of the system of things."¨
This is the end of THIS system of things that is run by Gods enemy Satan and all people that oppose the true God Jehovah.
So what about WW3 , what will it be.?
Well , the Bible talks about Armageddon as being a battle between Gods kingdom ruled by Jesus Christ as a spirit creature against all those that have proven that they do not follow God.
In particular , Satan and his demons , Satan's world empire of false religion , and ALL those in it.
The world governments and the economic and social structures that they have made.
All this things have been found to be substandard in Gods sight and will be removed completely., leaving only righteous individuals alive on earth.
Gods son , Jesus, will direct this action against the unGodly , and then through his 'kingdom' he will bring about the restoration of things to the way that God had intended them to be in the first place.
In particular with regards to man , it will restore obedient mankind to a perfect state allowing them to live forever on a paradise earth., not ever needing to die.
Revelation 21:4 . . ¨.And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."
This is what the Bible teaches , and it will occur.

No, not yet. World War 3 would require conflict within the first world nations (or as Immanuel Wallerstein calls them, the Core). World Wars 1 & 2 had core nations on both sides, both fighting over who got what resources in the third world (the periphery as Wallerstein calls it). Right now, the core is not arguing over who gets what in the third world. It sounds awfully egocentric to state that WW3 requires core nations and the periphery's suffering doesn't matter, but the fact is that global economics and the world wars fought over global economics are about what core nations can dominate which peripheral countries. The Middle East is in the periphery. The core is not fighting over who dominates the Middle East. Eventually that kind of thinking will be resolved, most likely due to the movement of oil out of the global economic infrastructure than because peace was reached.
Is this the beginning of Armageddon? I would say no, but I don't believe in Armageddon. Ignore the fighting and consider that the scientists are predicted that the oceans will be fished out by the year 2040 if we don't do something about global fishing practices now. We aren't. Will we cooperate or will we fight when the fish are gone and the ocean's biosphere alters completely?

According to my understanding, bible prophecy says that ww3 is comming.
Armagedon is after Jesus comes and pulls his ppl out, His ppl will come back down with their new indestructible bodies and 'retake' the Earth.
The stuff you are seeing on CNN,(in my opinion), goes with wars and rumors of wars.
And happy holidays to you too!

The wars and rumors, is the red horse. Red stands for blood, War. When peace talks fail then war.
Rev 6:4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
"to take peace from the earth' speaks of all nations world wide at war.

Just rumors. The Biblical war has always been between good and evil. However, were is this war?
In the mind.
Doing good comes from the mind(forehead). It is the Spirit of GOD that impresses us.
At the other end of the spectrum, evil is a desire that also begins in the mind(forehead). It, then, manifests itself in our actions(hand).
Sorry for getting carried away. The Mark of the Beast are related.
Much more can be said.
GOD bless

i wish we awaken to islamic aggression and terror earlier it is composed of that. i'm reminded of something Albert Einstein reported lower back in 1947: "i understand no longer with what weapons WW III would be fought, yet WW IV would be fought with sticks and stones". enable us to no longer forget approximately that if Chamberlain and something of Europe had no longer cowered and appeased that madman Hitler, in all probability WWII could have been prevented. at present's appeasement of militant islam will in basic terms deliver approximately a similar, dire, eventuality.

WW3 won't be our downfall. Eventually some advanced extraterrestrial race is going to start receiving the radio and television signals that we've been leaking out into space for the better part of a century. After listening to and watching the crap we've been sending out, they might just decide that we'll pose a potential threat if we ever perfect space travel and decide to visit us. Forget "Armageddon" - think "Independence Day" without the hokey "humans win" ending!

yes we are. Just my opinion here. The Bible in Revelation's, talks about the world being destroyed by fire. here is my opinion. I think that a nuclear war will destroy everything on the face of this earth as we know it by fire.
