    Well yes, of COURSE they need an army if they want to play the Revelation / Armageddon game . . .

    Yes, they do have an army but is is not a literal, physical army that fights a person,,,we are fighting Satan and all he stands for...we wear a helmet of salvation,,,a breastplate of righteous, and a sword of truth...why??

    Because we want all to be saved and not come short of the Glory of God. We want all to be saved but we also understand, all will not be. Even members of our own household will not be fighting on our side. But still, we will press on, because there is coming a day soon, when we will lay down our arms and fight no more.
