So, I've got someone trying to argue with me, telling me about how China has bragged about having a 200,000,000 man army (nevermind that it's army is only 3 millions :/, but he retorted that China 'bragged about having it') and that the bible says the 'kings of the east' (revelations books 8/9) will lead the force into israel (I also pointed out that one million men would be plenty considering Israel has under 200,000 soldiers and China has a huge airforcee) and that this will set the stage for a world war.  Anyone else know any sites or sources that adress debunking this specific 'prophecy'?  The original quote I'm debunking is:

Quote:

Rev 8:1-2 is the beginning of the passage describing end times events, and the period of time surrounding Armageddon (or Har Megido, the Valley of Megido, a real place in northern Israel and strategically the only place for a large mobile army to travel through in the region). This description continues into Chapter 9. Note in Ch 9 Vs 16 it talks about a 200 million man army... China has boasted it can field a 200 million man army. The passage also describes all-out nuclear war, among other things, with 1/3 of the worlds population being killed at one time. Remember this was being described 2000 years ago by someone who had never seen man fly, let alone a nuclear missle. Pretty accurate descriptions, though... This has been preached on many times before.
