Revelation Chap 9 verse 16


Apocalypse Chap 9 verse 16
(Modern English) And the number of the army of horsemen was twenty thousand times ten thousand*. And I heard the number of them.
* The number in the ancient Greek text is “two myriads of myriads” meaning 2 x 10’000 x 10’000 = 200’000’000
Clearly this number of troops matches our era and time and has nothing to do with any other era in the past.
It will become even more obvious if we examine the following facts and figures.
  1. The total world population have reached 6 billion
  2. In case of a world war each country involved may be able to mobilize soldiers at the 10% of its population. (U.S.A. achieved an 11% - 16 million men and women according to: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_percentage_of_US_soldiers_to_the_US_population_that_fought_in_World_War_2)
  3. A Future world war 3 would be shorter and deadlier so modern technology and logistics won’t help to increase the percentage of military mobilization.
  4. The whole world could therefore mobilize 600’000’000 (10% of 6n) in the hypothesis we made.
COINSIDENTLY…
According to the chap.9 verse 18, “And by these three plagues was slain the third part of men, by the fire and by the smoke and by the brimstone which issued out of their mouths”, the outcome of this world war will be the elimination of 1/3 of the population , meaning that in a destructive ww3 the 200’000’000 troops involved, – representing 1/3 of the world’s total army (600’000’000/3 = 200’000’000) – will cause the third of the population to die. The conclusions are yours…
In our opinion the whole chapter 9 represents a time from 1990’s until 2010’s
