The battle of Armageddon will take place in the Valley of Megiddo in Israel, where all nations will come to fight against Jerusalem (Zechariah 12:2-3 and Revelation 16:13-16).

Hi Cris,
There are probably more places that say this, but a quick look brings up two from the very interesting book of Zechariah.

Zech. 12:3 "And it will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it."

Zech. 14:2 "For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured, etc.

I have frequently wondered if it literally means EVERY nation or figuratively and generally speaking that most of the world will stand against Israel in that day (which seems quite possibly soon upon us). Reading on as well as in other areas He clearly says that He will intervene on behalf of Israel, His beloved. Hmmm... wonder what He will do. I think it will be pretty dramatic however. Of course no one knows and all we can do is conjecture. As you read on to Zech. 14:12 it sure sounds like a neutron bomb to me. It has been speculated publicly that Israel does in fact have a neutron bomb and it seems to describe it graphically from what it's effects have been said to be like.

Jerusalem is the hub of activity on the earth. It will take it's place as The City of the Great King. The bottom line is to know Him. The best investment is time spent looking for Him. Best part is, if we do He promises that we will find Him. I bet you already know that though.
