19 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.
20 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).
These last two verses in Revelation 14 hold so much Truth. The first thing that I want you to see is that while this amount of Blood seems huge, and it is, it only represents a very small amount of the population of the world. Here is how I calculated this:
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
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 who are left after 3 1/2 years of wrath)
0.35% Percent taking to Armageddon
58” Height in inches of average horse
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!
