Battle of Armagedon:
For they are the spirits of devils working signs, and they go forth unto the kings of the whole earth, to gather them to battle against the great day of the Almighty God. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.And he shall gather them together into a place, which in Hebrew is called Armagedon. And the seventh angel poured out his vial upon the air, and there came a great voice out of the temple from the throne, saying: It is done. And there were lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and there was a great earthquake, such an one as never had been since men were upon the earth, such an earthquake, so great. And the great city was divided into three parts; and the cities of the Gentiles fell. And great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the indignation of his wrath. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. Apoc.16.16

Battle of Gog and Magog (Gog is Antichrist and Magog is his army):
And when the thousand years shall be finished, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, and shall go forth, and seduce the nations, which are over the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, and shall gather them together to battle, the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. And they came upon the breadth of the earth, and encompassed the camp of the saints, and the beloved city. And there came down fire from God out of heaven, and devoured them; and the devil, who seduced them, was cast into the pool of fire and brimstone, where both the beast And the false prophet shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Apoc.20.7
The above battle of Armagedon and the battle of Gog and Magog are the same - these are the wars of the Antichrist.
Father Paul Kalchik on the battle of Armagedon:

Most Catholics are under the mistaken impression that the battle of Armagedon has taken place already and therefore will not take place at the end of days. Father Paul Kalchik is of this mistaken opinion. In his comments Father is flippant about this battle and considers it of no importance. He thinks that Christ's second coming is at hand. Because of this mistaken view Father has sided with the Protestant heretics who believe that the Pope is the Antichrist or at a minimum the Antichrist's False Prophet - which is nonsense.
Fr. Kalchik Interview with PJ Media:
"We are in the midst of a super spiritual warfare," Kalchik told PJ Media. "When we read the book of Revelation, we read about the great battle of Meggido [better known as Armageddon], and we think it's being fought with guns and knives or whatever."
"It's the story about what's going on now, how before Christ's Second Coming and return, there will be a great battle," the priest argued. "It's not a battle in the physical sense of armies, it's a battle of demons against the faithful." He suggested the recent sex cover-up scandal in the Catholic Church, and the culture's embrace of LGBT ideology are parts of this great spiritual battle.
Kalchik also presented the strategy to win this battle. "It's a battle that will be won by us by going to Confession, receiving Holy Eucharist worthily, and by prayers said in the State of Grace," he declared, referencing two of the Catholic Church's sacraments and the Catholic idea of a "State of Grace" following Confession and Reconciliation after committing a "mortal sin."
"Many are engaged in this battle right now for the good of the entire church," the priest added.
"People have asked me, 'Do you think it's the end of the world?' I think we're right in the pains of it," Kalchik said. "I've been saying my prayers — it's scary stuff." Source
