MANKIND'S FINAL BATTLE WITH THE WORD OF GOD.
(Revelation 19:11 to 20:10).

In point of time and past events, we are on the threshold of the greatest of all wars. Among these events are: "a great mountain burning with fire" (Page 7/11/85A); the death of the "contemptible creature" Ayatollah Khomeini (Page 4/6/89); the drought and famine of Ethiopia (Page 20/7/84); the "great earthquake" killing 7,000 men in Mexico City (Page 26/9/85); the spirit desolation of Lebanon (Page 3/11/83); the destruction of Babylon/Iraq (Page 8/2/91); and the revealing of the "man of lawlessness" (Page 861A).

But this war is against the Son and Holy Word of God, a war from which only faithful and prospective servants of God will emerge victorious. It will be a war between mankind and the one through whom The Word came, namely The Christ Michael who is "Faithful and True". (Rev 19:11-13). To war against The Word of God is to war against Almighty God. So the question we should now ask is: In what way could people of the nations possibly war against The Word? By speaking against its origin, its validity, and its Spirit principles. When they do this, they war against the Spirit of God, against His Spirit rule of conduct for mankind under the "new covenant" by The Christ Michael the Word of God. (Heb 8:6-13. Rev 5:9,10).

This spirit of rebellion against the Word of God will lead to the destruction of people in all walks of life, particularly those who have the "mark" of the "wild beast" from kings, commanders and fighting men, to the lowest slaves. (19:18 NEB. 13:15 18). Thanks be to God that all members of the political "wild beast" and satan the "dragon" who gave the "wild beast" its authority will be abyssed. (19:19,20. 20:1-3). Abyssed too shall be sectarian aid agencies of the "false prophet" that employed this demonic expression to thwart judicial decisions of God relating to sacrificed nations.

The significance of the abyssing of the "wild beast" and the "false prophet" is the everlasting termination of all their functions and activities in the minds of men. But after a thousand years, satan will be let loose from his prison and will gather mankind, Gog and Magog, for the battle against beloved people of God, testing them as to their loyalty to the Word of God. (20:7-10).

The great majority of mankind do not obey the Word of God in their lives. But when the "Rider" who is just in Judgement and war begins to wield the Word with great authority, it will be like a "sharp sword" with which to smite the nations. Rebel spirits of mankind (including corrupted spirits ejected from the heavens) will rise up in anger against the Spirit authority of the "Rider" The Christ Michael and his anointed followers. (19:11-14).

Although the Godless masses may rail against the deprivation caused by their political system and the instigators of it (i.e.) politicians, bankers, employers, etc, they are also destined to be killed by the Spirit "sword" of the Faithful and True "Rider" for their own unGodly and unrepentant lives. (19:21).

THE RULE OF THE WORD OF GOD WILL BE LIKE AN "IRON ROD".
The "Little Scroll" of Revelation 10:1-11 is bitter because it recalls to the minds and spirits of those who read it their sins against the Lord, particularly those committed against members of the "temple" of God. (1 Cor 3:16,17). The "Little Scroll" will be prophesied "once again" "over peoples and nations and languages and many kings." (10:10,11 NEB). It contains Spirit principles of God by which The Christ Michael and his anointed brothers will rule, and which will feel like an "iron rod" in the spirits of the rebellious of mankind. (19:15,16. 2:26,27). But how wonderful for those who have already been spiritually trained and readjusted by this "rod" called the "Little Scroll" before the heavenly war of God breaks out upon all mankind!
