Pastor Russell Predicts: "earth's great rulers" leading to "The Armageddon of Anarchy"

"This war [1914] will proceed and will eventuate in no glorious victory for any nation, but in the horrible mutilation and impoverishment of all. Next will follow the Armageddon of anarchy." HG674:3 

"The warring element will fight out this battle; and this will be the way in which God will promote the change, which is represented in the Bible as a great "fire," which will consume the present "heavens," or ecclesiastical ruling powers, and the "earth," or social institutions."

"Doubtless earth’s great rulers have done the best they knew how to do for their peoples. ... While they knew that this (WWI) would be the worst war ever known, yet they preferred it to that which they were striving to ward off and which they have succeeded in keeping off for the present... 

Then will come the determination for something like Socialism. This the governments will endeavor to put down, and to some extent they will succeed. Then will come the great explosion—the Armageddon of the Scriptures."SM419 

"The Battle of Armageddon... will be a great contest between right and wrong..." Pastor C.T. Russell R5659 




Hint! 

"Aggressiveness on the part of the trusts and syndicates will bring about the final catastrophe of this age in the wreck of the entire social structure by the masses." NS377:5 Comments Book re: Matt. 24:21 

Q: Who are the trusts and syndicates of today? 

Yours in Truth,

Is Trump vs. Globalism "The Battle of Armageddon"?

"The Battle of Armageddon, to which the war is leading, will be a great contest between right and wrong, and will signify the complete and everlasting overthrow of the wrong, and the permanent establishment of Messiah's righteous kingdom for the blessing of the world." Charles Taze Russell

THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON

Our thought is that the war (1914) will so weaken the nations that following it there will be an attempt to bring in Socialistic ideas, and that this will be met by the governments – the wealthy and all classes interested in the present order of things, "the world which now is," the present "heavens," or ecclesiastical system, and the "earth," the social order. The present order will be supported by the rich, by financiers, politicians, princes of industry, and the kings upon the thrones. All these will do their best to maintain present conditions, and will summon the clergy to their support. Then will come a general uprising everywhere; on one side those who are beneficiaries of the present institutions will be against any change. Against them, on the other side, will be the masses, who are striving to better their condition; for in God's Plan, the time has come for a change.

Shall the Lord's people have any part in the struggle? Nay! Let us ever keep in mind that we are peacemakers. Not only are we peaceable ourselves and seeking to live peaceably with all men, but we are to be peace-promoters, and to help others to see things straight and right. That course would be tending toward putting away anarchy and strife; but anarchy will surely come, despite all endeavors to the contrary.

Nevertheless, the Lord shows us through His Word that there is to be a victory on the part of the New Order of things, now coming in. The Socialists do not want anarchy; but they are not far from it. Anarchy is the worst thing that could be – a lack of some form of government being the worst thing the world could experience. The warring element will fight out this battle; and this will be the way in which God will promote the change, which is represented in the Bible as a great "fire," which will consume the present "heavens," or ecclesiastical ruling powers, and the "earth," or social institutions."  Z1914NOV" from R5563 "MAKING READY FOR THE REIGN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS "

Does this sound familiar?  It's on TV right now.  I'm not suggesting a President Trump's policies will bring about the Kingdom... 

I'm saying that Armageddon has already been going on for many decades just as expected and yet unnoticed, even by the Bible Truth groups.  

Therefore, THE Anarchy is next, also already begun in my view, to be followed directly by Messiah's Kingdom, exactly as our Pastor did teach us.  RcB

"The Lord long ago pointed out this great Time of Trouble, which has already begun and which will culminate in an awful period of anarchy, the Armageddon of the Scriptures." 

Yours in Truth,
