When I decided to teach Revelation, I had to understand Armageddon. I realized Christ's weapon was the sword of truth carried in his mouth and that his white robe was stained  with blood from his own self-sacrifice. Seeing Christ's army dressed in spotless, fine white linen,  I understood Christ's army doesn't have bloody victims. Their uniforms are spotless white.  My Conclusion is that the Battle of Armageddon is a different kind of war, a war fought daily by Christ and his army of truth bearers sharing the goodness of God with people everywhere. How long is it going to take for the sword of truth to change collective thought? We don't know, but fortunately the book of Revelation will be around to point the way to New Jerusalem
