I believe God will sound a clear warning before he does anything drastic like that. Not the type of warning the Witnesses give. Most of the world's population will never hear their message. So it would be grossly unfair for God to judge according to their message. If you read Revelation 11 you will see what I mean. However, after the two prophets had given their warning, it would be a good idea to make peace with God.

Armageddon is strictly military action to save Israel
While Israel has the nuclear and military might and allied with the USA to smash every single one of its neighbours to oblivion!

Cofty, if you believe in evolution, you have nothing to fear, except perhaps meteorites, manmade and/or natural disasters. But if you believe in a creator, that puts a different spin on things. Then you belong to him and you accept and adapt to his terms.

Heaven, here’s a few of the modern translations and their interpretation. Note also the context of the verse. God will indeed bring disaster on his enemies. The word would be the opposite of "peace."
Isaiah 45:1 Thus says the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have grasped, to subdue nations before him and to loose the belts of kings, to open doors before him that gates may not be closed: (Isa. 45:1 ESV)
Isaiah 45:7 I form light and create darkness, I make well-being and create calamity, I am the LORD, who does all these things. (Isa. 45:7 ESV)
Isaiah 45:7 I am the one who forms light and creates darkness; the one who brings about peace and creates calamity. I am the LORD, who accomplishes all these things. (Isa. 45:7 NET)
Isaiah 45:7 I form light and create darkness, I make success and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things. (Isa. 45:7 CSBO)

God will give you some teeth-gnashing time, don't worry. It's prophetic!
