I was wondering the other day just how long Armageddon was supposed to last? How long does it take to kill billions of people? Hours or days or weeks? Did anyone ever hear someone talk about that? It would be interesting to know what other congregations have said.
How long does it take?

Well, official Witness doctrine is that Armageddon started in 1914, shortly after the invention of the internal combustion engine.Some of us think something is due for an overhaul.

Nope, I never heard it mentioned and I am sure nothing has been put in print.
Thank goodness we now know that it is never going to happen , and can rest easy

Well if the "return" was spiritual only, wouldn't it make sense that the big "A" would be likewise. That would make it an easy out for the "generationists" in the writing dept to justify its not happening....
To answer the question, 53 days, 14 hrs, 41 minutes and 8 seconds.
Now, what cha gonna do with the information?

I think it depends on whether Jehovah lets jesus do all the slaughtering......or he pitches in. If I remember correct.......the ressurected annointed ones have no share in the bloodbath........they only get to watch.
