PREPARE FOR WAR! Is China Fulfilling END TIME Prophecy of the DRAGON and 200 Million Man Army?

“PREPARE FOR WAR!” – This is the shocking message posted by the People’s Liberation Army of China which has since gone viral. The phrase could be translated as “prepare for war” or “ready to fight,” but China’s official English newspaper, the Global Times, make it clear that they are “Preparing for war.”
Has the DRAGON awakened?
The Communist Party of China has spent the last four decades as a reasonably quiet military force, choosing to grow their economy and international relations rather than participate in battles. However, this year, the world has been shocked to see a more aggressive China. At the beginning of this year, China threatened Australia with a missile attack, and just this week, China threatened to shoot down an airplane carrying or accompanying Nancy Pelosi if she chooses to visit Taiwan: an act that China sees as a violation of their national sovereignty.
Does China’s threat represent a change in strategy that is more in line with Russia’s aggressive strategy?
China has the world’s largest army, which is one reason why those who study biblical prophecy have taken notice. Could China be the aggressor to the people of Israel that the Apostle John talks about in Revelation? Are we seeing the beginnings of the Armageddon?
Revelation 16 describes the final battle that marks the end of the world, and John’s description of one of the armies could definitely be used to describe China’s army today. When the apostle John wrote about the battle he witnessed in his revelation, it would have probably seemed inconceivable that there would ever be an army of 200 million soldiers (see Revelation 9:16), especially since the population of the entire world in the first century AD is estimated to have been between 170 million and 400 million.
John shed more light on this army of 200 million by adding a few descriptive details, saying that it would come from the East and from the mouth of the “dragon.”
“The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. Then I saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet.” (Revelation 16:12–13)
The battle that John observed in his vision is known as the Battle of Armageddon, (see verse 16). The term ‘Armageddon’ is used in the Bible to describe a military battle over Jerusalem that takes place in northern Israel between rebellious nations—led by the Antichrist—and Christ Himself, as He returns to the earth.
In our book, CHINA AND END TIME PROPHECY, we lay out the political, economic, and religious conditions in China that seem to be pointing to end times. It is not just China’s military threat that has reminded us of the teachings of John, but also China’s electronic ID system, facial recognition technology, social media scoring, commerce control, social-engineered peer review programs, war against the church, persecution of Christians, re-education camps and their current program to translate the Bible into a more socialist friendly book. Couple these things with China’s multimillion-man army, aggressive military campaigns, permanent seat on the UN Security Council, and financial influence over most of the world, and there is no doubt a recipe that reminds us of the mark of the Beast and end-time economy prophecies concerning the ‘Dragon,’ (See Revelation 13:16–18.)
Many eschatologists have argued that references to the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet give us clues that China might be a member of the unholy trinity that declares war on Christ for a final showdown. For generations, the armies of China have been feared and have been the subject of many theories regarding the end of the age. The great conqueror Napoleon reportedly said, “China is a sleeping giant. Let her sleep, for when she wakes she will shake the world.”
Has the Dragon awakened? It has, but there is hope!
After years of watching China persecute Christians and war against the church, it is easy to connect China to the dragon with an army from the East. However, in recent years, there seems to be another army in China on the rise—one that is very different from the one described in Revelation 9 and 13. It is a Christian army in the land of the dragon that is quickly approaching 200 million. It is an army of Christian believers, pastors, evangelist, and missionaries who are experiencing the persecution Jesus spoke of when He said, “Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and you shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake” (Matthew 24:9).
The rise of this new army in China is one that would not be against Christ at His coming, but rather for Him. This army of believers are currently fighting a battle “against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephesians 6:12).
With any prophecy about end times, it is important that Christians focus on completing the Great Commission. This is the calling that we have. The final battle of Armageddon is coming, the Dragon will rise, but that will not stop every tribe and nation from hearing the Good News of the Kingdom before the return of Jesus Christ our Savior!

President Xi Jin Ping please don’t take over that tiny Country of Taiwan to claim it. People went there for many from China as a refuge. They are no different from many from all over the World that escape their homeland to find freedom or a better life or to avoid danger or to prosper or to get food and shelter their country isn’t providing for them or for Religious Reasons to avoid being killed over their Religion. It’s been this way since Explorers wanted to see what was beyond the horizon and travel by Sea on boats to claim land as theirs or to buy goods that’s other lands had like your fine Chinese silk that many traveled to what was once called the Orient. I know you’re upset that’s where your Freedom Fighters fled to Taiwan when the Communist Party shut down their fight to make Hong Kong a new Democracy and break away from China where the CCP began arresting the Freedom Fighters and Journalists who spoke against China. Both sides have valid reasons for doing what each of you did. It is not Taiwan’s fault their Country is a safe refuge for many or the Leader of it either. They who fled there have not spoken out against China or you the Leader or the CCP and back lashed it but have remained silent since the CCP began arresting the Freedom Fighters to end their campaign to Free Hong Kong. There is a time to Let Go. End the fight.
The dragon could be China.
The false prophet could be Islam.
The beast could be a Western-European Antichrist.
Right now, Russia is allying with Turkey and Iran (Gog and Magog?), and probably thinks of attacking and robbing Israel.
Meanwhile, our global Satanist elites have planned for us to be even more socially and technologically controlled in the name of covid, monkey pox, ecology, war, etc, etc, etc…. ^^’
You lost me at Covid! Covid claimed over a million lives in U.S. Wise Christians took precautions and received life saving vaccines.Thank God, it is now less of a threat.Covid is not a hoax pushed by evil Democrats. The Fascist wing of the Republican Party is the real threat to our great Republic. I was a life long Republican who is still an authentic Conservative, unfortunately today’s Republican Party has been radicalized by Talk Radio. FOX, Newsmax. OAN, etc. Sadly, many so called Republicans/Evangelical Christians have made a deal with the devil.
So sad that we live in a world filled with people like Bill Fogle. So thankful that me and my family(immediate and distant) haven’t touched the vaccine. Bill and his fellow sheep will keep following the blind. All we can do is pray for those that are lost like Bill.
So sad that we live in a world filled with people like Chad. So thankful that me and my family(Distance and Immediate) have touched the vaccine. Chad and his fellow sheep will keep following the blind. All we can do is pray for those that are lost like chad.
Amen!
Your interpretation of China being the dragon in Scripture is not correct sir! The Dragon in Revelation 12:3 is Satan as interpreted in Revelation 12:9 and 20;2. i would go back and look at it again.
Yes, but doesn’t God put satan behind the man or entity in many events in his Word? All evil on earth has Satan, he’s involved with all our lives as his number is 666, so man’s number is 666. Do you really think there is any good in any of us without our creator, without God, without Jesus? We are all satan.
There seems to be alot of people who believe in the Para-shat Bere-shit, or what non-members of my tribe often call Ye Olde Testy-mint. Well, I got news for you: its Meshugana- batshit crazy. China is merely goading the USA into economic suicide by way of military spending. bin Laden already sealed the deal pretty much- the same as he did with the USSR. You remember 1991, right? Xi is a very smart dude. My hope is that he will lead the world in a manner suggested by his universal NFU (which means he won’t nuke other countries unless they nuke China.) The USA could learn alot from him. China has the manpower to end us- but they would rather use our own cowardice, arrogance, greedy, and myopic stupidity to defeat us without ever firing a shot. I hope it goes that way. The USA spends as much money as all other countries combined on our military. This sadly proves that we don’t deserve sovereignty. I wish it weren’t so, but it is.
I can see most of you who commented here are not christians. Well, whether you think Xi is smart for using the western values to enrich the CCP to enslave his own people and wages war against the christians and free expression or the democrats and some republicans alond with the EU and Canada who have sided with elite to push vaccine mandate and the LGBTQ agendas to the population and their children are great things, well I have news for you; you are wrong. Any government or ideology who is against Christ is from the Devil and will not win. At the end of the day, Christ reigns over all. I suggest all of you to make Christ the master of your lives.
