Nobody knows how the world will end. You can read the pages of the book HOLY BIBLE, in the Revelation. Read it for me. I read it long time ago when I was very young and very religious. It was scary of course and I was not able to sleep and had nightmares about it.
The Lord Jesus Christ mentioned in the Book that He saw the devil during His time of trials and tribulations before the Crucifixion. He was not the only one who saw the devil and all the evil in this world. So many of us had seen the devil, the evil and the demons in this world.
Look no further, look not that far because there are too many disguises. The devil doesn't need to be ugly or scary, nor these evils and demonic... you'll find that out when it's your time.
How the world will end is to keep your mind alert and prepared and think stronger and let not the devils win. When the bad guys win, it's end of the world. What do I mean by this? It depends of what the world means to you.
