Armageddon or New Jerusalem?

Armageddon. It's word that only appears once in the Bible, but few words have captured popular imagination more than Armageddon. As such it's much used and and abused by the popular misinterpreters of Revelation. To hear them tell it, the world is being drawn inevitably toward an unpreventable war. But this is a horrible misinterpretation. Our looming Armageddons are always a possibility, but never an inevitability. Armageddon is inevitable only if that's what we want. Armageddon is inevitable only if we refuse to follow the Lamb. Armageddon is inevitable only if we follow dragons, beasts, and false prophets.
