How Many Are Killed At Armageddon?

So the angel swung his scythe on the earth and stripped the grapes and gathered the vintage from the vines of the earth and cast it into the huge winepress of God’s indignation and wrath. And [the grapes in] the winepress were trodden outside the city, and blood poured from the winepress, [reaching] as high as horses’ bridles, for a distance of 1,600 stadia (about 200 miles).  Revelation 14:19-20

To figure out how many people are actually killed at Armageddon I used my very basic, and I do mean basic, understanding of Math and here is what I came up with.

3,097,600            Yards in 1 square mile

619,520,000        Yards in 200 square miles

1,858,560,000     Yards in 200 cubic miles 

3,717,120,000     Yards in 200 cubic miles 6 feet deep (Average Height of a Horses Bridle)

202                       Gallons in a square yard

18,401,584           Gallons of blood in 200 square miles 6 feet deep

1.5                        Gallons of blood in average person

12,267,723           Number of people to fill 200 square miles 6 feet deep

3,500,000,000      Half of Earth’s population (estimated number of people left after 3 1/2 years of      wrath)

0.0035                  Percent of people gathered to Armageddon to be destroyed

I am sure that there are math major’s that will be able to clarify this formula far better than I, but even if I am 100% short, that still means that less than 1% of the worlds population will be gathered to Armageddon to be destroyed. That shows us the power of salvation during the last 3 1/2 years of this age in our history! Over 99% of the people who are here right before Jesus returns will not have taken the Mark of the Beast! 

After this I looked and a vast host appeared which no one could count, [gathered out] of every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages. These stood before the throne and before the Lamb; they were attired in white robes, with palm branches in their hands. Revelation 7:9
