Popular Christian novels tell of the horrors of a vindictive God destroying three billion people by earthquakes and fire. But is this what the Bible foretells? These fictional depictions of prophecy ignore the “Good News” of the Bible and paint a picture of an unsympathetic and cruel God. But this portrayal contradicts the clear Bible teaching that “God is love” and that “His compassions fail not.” (1 John 4:16-18; Lam. 3:22)
Yes, the Scriptures do speak of a momentous time of trouble coinciding with the return of Christ and culminating in Armageddon. However, the true purpose of Armageddon is to cleanse the earth of the systems of corruption which have been under the control of Satan and his servants. It is important to understand that the corrupt ecclesiastical, social, financial and political systems need to be destroyed—not the people misled by these systems. (Isaiah 40:4)
Billions of good-hearted people have not known and accepted Jesus. The conversion of these people will come after the true church is complete and after the great tribulation. "Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations... to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger... For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent." (Zephaniah 3:8, 9)
