What is the sign in the heavens for the waging of war on the earth? Immediately after the return of His armies to
this earth, the heavens become black as sackcloth. There is a sign in the heavens of war with the eclipse of Mars.

The more important aspect is that the armies of God are immortal beings who cannot be destroyed by man. His
armies are everlasting beings. Men will now die, unlike the fifth judgment. At the time of the Fifth Judgment,
mortal men had a desire to die, but death would be impossible for them. Let us take a look at the scripture for
the great supper of God and the birds in the sky to feast upon the flesh of men.
Revelation 19:17-19 “Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice,
saying to all the birds which fly in mid-heaven, “Come, assemble for the great supper of God,
18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the flesh of mighty men
and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, both free men and
slaves, and small and great.”
19 And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war against
Him who sat on the horse and against His army.”

A similar statement follows right after the “coming of the Son of Man” in Matthew 24:27-28. This is referring to the
Second Coming of Christ. This is a battle between mortal men of the earth and immortal beings from heaven.
This is His chosen bond-servants who have been purchased with His blood for redemption. This will be open
warfare, where men will die in the field of battle in great numbers. Then, the birds and vultures will gather to eat
their flesh, which is mentioned both in Matthew and Revelation.
Matthew 24:28 “Wherever the corpse is there the vultures will gather.”
