Is this potentially the description of atomic warfare or is it through the power of Christ’s word as a “sharp sword”
that He slays the enemy? The sword symbolizes weapons of war, which is His spoken word. Genesis 1:3 states
God spoke light into existence to make this a visible world. Likewise, Christ could speak the world into
destruction as well at this time. But, Christ reserves this for the remaining period or final third of this judgment.

Revelation 19:15 “From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations,
and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the
163
Almighty. “
There is one-third of mankind who are saved from these plagues and not killed. Nevertheless, the remaining
third do not repent of their wicked deeds. God’s fierce wrath will be poured out. 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. In Revelation, it says let the birds come and eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of all men.

Revelation 19:18 “……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
164
men and slaves, and small and great.”
August 2397: we have arrived at the timeframe of Christ’s battle of war on this earth, which we have determined
to be the eclipse of the sun with Mars and the moon. We have seen that the skies turn black as sackcloth prior to
the waging of war by mortal man against immortal beings from heaven. Immediately upon His return, we know
that Christ is ready as well as mankind to wage the war. In Revelation 16:14, the passage says three spirits of
demons will go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for war of the great day of God.

After these events, we are told in scripture that the second woe is past.

165
Revelation 11:14 “The second woe is past; behold, the third woe is coming quickly.”
It is now time for Christ to Reign on the earth for victory is near. It will occur within the next three months.
Events that are divine in nature occur with the number three in them. Remember, after the Fourth Trumpet
Judgment, an eagle with a loud voice shouted - Woe, woe, woe to those on the earth. This marks the end of the
second woe after the Sixth Trumpet Judgment has been completed.

Revelation 8:13 “Then I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven, saying with a loud voice,
“Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the
166
three angels who are about to sound!”
