Well .. I've studied it a lot since 1985 .. and some of the prophecys I heard then have now come to pass .. for instance - it was stated in 1985 that Russia and China would form an alliance. People scoffed - but low and behold Russia and China have formed an alliance.

Therefore, who are you to say that GOD doesn't know the difference between WWI and WWII - and when WWIII will happen ..?? I might "misread" .. but GOD does not misspeak!

God didn't use purely modern concepts in the Scriptures, since they were address to all of humanity down the ages. Certainly not references to a fashion for numbering "world wars". Nor does He any where write "Russia" or "China", these are your readings. I am certain God knows when all future wars will take place, and on which one we humans will stick the name WW III and have it catch on. That's not the same as saying any particular conflict foretold in the Scriptures will get that name, which is what you are insisting.

Most misreadings of Scripture these days, seem to me, to be the result of cultural and temporal arrogance: the assumption that God addressed the Scriptures primarily to post-'Enlightenment' rationalists.
