Title: ~MEGIDDO~ Post by: at_the_Cross on November 23, 2004, 05:26:47 AM This movie is about the end time Prophecies of Armageddon. "Armageddon" the word actually means "mount of Megiddo," which refers to a small mountain overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. This great valley has been ground zero for many warriors over the past centuries.
During the past 4000 years or so, at least 34 bloody conflicts have already been fought at the ancient site of Megiddo and around the Jezreel Valley. The Egyptians, Canaanites, Israelites, Midianites, Amalekites, Philistines, Hasmonaeans, Greeks, Romans, Muslims, Crusaders, Mamlukes, Mongols, French, Ottomans, British, Australians, Germans, Arabs and Israelis have all fought and died there. Joel 3:12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about. (Psalm 96:13; Isaiah 2:4) Joel 3:13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great. (Matthew 13:39; Revelation 14:15,19; Jeremiah 51:33; Isaiah 63:3) Joel 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision. (ch. 2:1) Joel 3:15 The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining. Joel 3:16 The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel. (Isaiah 51:5,6) Joel 3:17 So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. The Bible also calls the final battle of Armageddon the: 1. wrath of the Lord (Isaiah 26:20) 2. hot anger of the Lord (Ezekiel 38:18) 3. dread of the Lord (Isaiah 2:10) 4. vengeance of God (Isaiah 35:4) 5. grapes of wrath Isaiah (63:1-6; Revelation 14:14-20) 6. great banquet of God (Ezekiel 39:17-20; Revelation 19:17-18)
