According to the Bible, the End Times will include a period of great tribulation (Matthew 24:21; Revelation 6–18) when evil increases, and God’s judgment is poured out upon the earth. The Battle of Armageddon (Revelation 16:16; 19:11–21) is the final conflict between the forces of Satan and the returning Lord Jesus Christ. At His second coming, Christ will defeat the nations that oppose Him, cast the Antichrist and False Prophet into the lake of fire, and establish His Millennial Kingdom—a thousand-year reign of peace and righteousness (Revelation 20:1–6).
