How do we know that Armageddon is a spiritual battle?
Answered in 1 source
Scripture depicts Armageddon as a culmination of spiritual warfare against false religion and Satan rather than a literal conflict.
The scriptural narrative emphasizes that our warfare is primarily spiritual, not physical. In 2 Corinthians 10, Paul explains that though we live in physical bodies, our battle is not fought with carnal weapons; rather, it relies on divine power to dismantle strongholds of false reasoning and deception. The imagery of Armageddon serves as a metaphor for God's final judgment on spiritual opponents, reinforcing that our victory comes through Christ and not through physical means. This understanding shifts the focus from worldly conflicts to the spiritual realities of faith and redemption.
