Revelation 16:12-16 (KJV)
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
In Revelation 16 we see pictured the same battle that was mentioned before in Revelation 12,13,14 and 15 but with a different focus. In these scenes the type of confederacy and the method that will employed in the last days to gather the finally impentitent is clearly seen.
Verses 13 explains the method of deception and verse 14 explains the actors and their purpose. In Verse 13 It is mention the Dragon, the Beast and the False Prophet. These symbols represent primarily satan but secondarily Pagan Rome (Revelation 12:9; Luke 2:1);; The Beast as we proved earlier is the Roman Cathlic Papal Organisation which changed the law of God and persecuted the true Christians and the true Church for 1260 years (days) (Revelation 13:1-10, Daniel 7:23-25) And the False Prophet is the U.S.A in when she speaks as a Dragon (Revelation 13:11-18; Revelation 19:19-21)
What is important to note here is that the primary method used to gather people to battle against the remnant is Spiritualistic influences. These include the belief in the natural Immorality of the human soul. This along with the idea that Sunday is the Lord's Day or Christian Sabbath will sweep many unsuspecting Christians and non-Christains to battle against the remnant people of God who will demonstrate to the world three critical issues in the battle between good and evil. These are:

These are:
- Prove that God can reproduce His character in Sinful fallen nature of the remnant
- Prove Love does not use force to overcome opposition
- Prove that God's Law is the Law of Love
- Prove that from all eternity God has always been and will always be agape Love
