The Abrahamic faiths continue after the book’s description of Armageddon because the theological framework of each religion envisions **a reality beyond the final events** described in their respective scriptures. These faiths do not end with the events of Armageddon but see them as a gateway to **eternity, renewal, or a new divine order**.
Here’s how each faith envisions continuity beyond Armageddon:
### 1. **Christianity**
- **The Second Coming and Eternal Life**: In Christianity, the Book of Revelation describes the battle of Armageddon and the subsequent destruction of evil. After this, there is the **Second Coming of Christ**, where Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead.
- **Eternal Life**: For believers, this marks the beginning of eternal life. The faithful are promised entry into the **New Heaven and New Earth**, where God’s presence will dwell with humanity. The righteous will live forever in a state of peace, while the wicked are cast into the lake of fire. This represents the **fulfillment** of Christian hope, not the end of the religion.
- **God's Kingdom**: Revelation 21 speaks of a New Jerusalem descending from heaven, and this eternal kingdom is central to Christian eschatology. Christians believe that the world as we know it ends, but existence continues in **God's eternal kingdom**, where righteousness prevails.
Thus, while the Bible may end its narrative with the events of Revelation, the Christian faith envisions **an unending relationship with God in a transformed reality**.
### 2. **Islam**
- **Day of Judgment and the Afterlife**: In Islamic eschatology, after the events leading to the Day of Judgment, including battles and the return of Jesus (Isa), the dead are resurrected, and everyone is judged by Allah based on their deeds.
- **Jannah (Paradise) or Jahannam (Hell)**: After judgment, people are sent to either **Jannah (paradise)** or **Jahannam (hell)** based on their faith and deeds. The Qur’an often describes paradise as a place of eternal joy and hell as a place of eternal punishment. The end-time events do not conclude the Islamic narrative but transition into an **eternal state** of reward or punishment.
- **Continuity of Faith**: Islam teaches that faith in Allah and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad are eternally relevant. The purpose of life is to prepare for the afterlife, so even though the temporal world may end, the spiritual consequences extend into eternity.
In Islam, **Armageddon is a step toward eternal existence** in which believers continue to live out the consequences of their faith.
### 3. **Judaism**
- **Messianic Age**: In Jewish eschatology, there is a focus on the coming of the **Messiah** who will bring about an era of peace and divine rule. While Judaism does not have the same detailed focus on Armageddon, it envisions a **future messianic age** where there is peace, justice, and the **fulfillment of God’s promises** to Israel.
- **World to Come (Olam Ha-Ba)**: After the messianic era, Judaism speaks of the **Olam Ha-Ba** (World to Come), a spiritual state of existence where souls experience communion with God. This is seen as an eternal, spiritual continuation beyond the present world.
- **Renewal**: For some, this is not a literal end to the world but a renewal where the world is perfected, and God’s divine will is fully realized. Jewish faith focuses on the ongoing covenant with God, meaning that **life and relationship with God extend beyond the temporal world**.
Judaism, while emphasizing the Messianic age, views the **covenant and relationship with God as eternal**, transcending the end of history.

### Why the Faiths Continue After Armageddon:
1. **Eschatological Fulfillment, Not Termination**: In all three Abrahamic religions, Armageddon or the end times represents **a fulfillment of divine promises**, not the cessation of faith. The events of the end times transition humanity to a new, eternal existence—whether in the form of heaven, paradise, a renewed Earth, or the World to Come.
2. **The Eternal Nature of God**: In all three faiths, **God is eternal**, and so is the relationship with God. The end of the physical world or the culmination of history does not signify the end of that divine relationship. Instead, it is seen as the beginning of an eternal reality in God's presence.
3. **Beyond the Books**: Although the scriptures may describe the end of the world or final judgment, **they do not describe the end of existence**. Instead, they point to a state beyond time where believers either enjoy eternal communion with God or face eternal separation. The narrative of the scriptures transitions into a **timeless existence** after the final judgment.
### Conclusion
The concept of Armageddon does not signal the end of the Abrahamic religions but marks the **completion of the earthly narrative** and the beginning of an eternal state of being. These faiths see Armageddon as a passage into an ultimate, perfected reality where the teachings and promises of God are fully realized, continuing indefinitely into eternity.
