What will happen to the millions of troops when hundred-pound hailstones fall at Armageddon?
The hundred-pound hailstones will crush the millions of troops gathered in the Middle East, leaving them no protection in tents. They will be literally squashed like grapes in a winepress, and as the hail melts in the Middle Eastern heat, a river of blood will flow as deep as horses' bridles.
Les explains that God has brought all the armies of the world to the Middle East to trample them with the final plague of hailstones. These millions of troops have only tents for protection, so hundred-pound hailstones leave them nothing. They are literally squashed even as grapes in the vat. Then the melting hail, in the Middle Eastern heat, produces a river of blood three to four feet deep, extending 1,600 furlongs—about 180 miles, from there down to the Red Sea—flowing as deep as the horse's bridles.
