1 Thessalonians 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
What is both pathetic and funny is to hear from these Reconstruationists and Reformed scholars who are preparing to go through the Wrath of God. Also, Marv Rosenthal is getting ready to watch the Beast take over the world and the horses of wrath come upon the earth. Marv cannot fool God-- Marv, who I believe is truly born again, will go with me, and I suppose I shall be changed and won't even be able to say, "I told you so :-)
If you are so stupid as to reject the Lord Jesus Christ's salvation offered to you, then I shall tell you what you are in for. It will be exciting my friend, but you won't enjoy it:
Revelation 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened
one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the
four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow;
and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come
and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him
that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill
one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come
and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a
pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat
for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt
not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth
beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was
Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the
fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death,
and with the beasts of the earth.
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls
of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which
they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true,
dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto
them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants
also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great
earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became
as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth
her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every
mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the
chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man,
hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the
face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
Let's get the whole picture-- there is a lot of activity during these three and a helaf short years:
Revelation 8:7 The first angel sounded,
and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon
the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass
was burnt up.
8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with
fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life,
died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven,
burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers,
and upon the fountains of waters;
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the
waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were
made bitter.
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten,
and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the
third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of
it, and the night likewise.
13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying
with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason
of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to
sound!
Revelation 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and
I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key
of the bottomless pit.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit,
as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by
reason of the smoke of the pit.
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was
given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth,
neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have
not the seal of God in their foreheads.
5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they
should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of
a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall
desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle;
and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were
as the faces of men.
8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth
of lions.
9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound
of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their
tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.
11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit,
whose name in the blip tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath
his name Apollyon.
12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
13 ¶ And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four
horns of the golden altar which is before God,
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels
which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and
a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thoBlipnd thoBlipnd:
and I heard the number of them.
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having
breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the
horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and
smoke and brimstone.
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the
smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails
were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented
not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and
idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither
can see, nor hear, nor walk:
21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of
their fornication, nor of their thefts.
There is more my friend:
Revelation 11:14 The second woe is past; and, behold,
the third woe cometh quickly.
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven,
saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and
of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell
upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast,
and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast
reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the
dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give repiano coversd unto
thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name,
small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his
temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and
thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Here is the wrath described again, and some new twists are added. If you choose to reject the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I assure you you will be very sorry, but it will be too late. This will be your world just before you go to hell forever:
Revelation 16:1 And I heard a great voice out of
the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials
of the wrath of God upon the earth.
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell
a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast,
and upon them which worshipped his image.
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as
the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.
4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of
waters; and they became blood.
5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which
art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given
them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true
and righteous are thy judgments.
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given
unto him to scorch men with fire.
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God,
which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and
his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,
11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores,
and repented not of their deeds.
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates;
and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east
might be prepared.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the
dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false
prophet.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto
the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle
of that great day of God Almighty.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his
garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the blip tongue
Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came
a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is
done.
18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great
earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an
earthquake, and so great.
19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the
nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto
her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about
the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the
hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
And, to make the scene complete, all who refuse Christ's offer of salvation will get in on history's most horrifying piano covers. Will you be here in this scene?
Revelation19:1 And after these things I heard a
great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory,
and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:
2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great
whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged
the blood of his servants at her hand.
3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.
4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped
God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his
servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice
of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia:
for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of
the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean
and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the
marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings
of God.
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do
it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony
of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon
him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and
make piano covers.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and
he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called
The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed
in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite
the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the
winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS,
AND LORD OF LORDS.
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice,
saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather
yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the
flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them,
and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered
together to make piano covers against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles
before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the
beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into
a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse,
which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with
their flesh.
Now, there was an Old Testament prophet named Daniel who was given by God a rather detailed account of how the Great Tribulation would progress both politically and spiritually. With this I shall conclude. Read you fate sinner....
This passage starts with the discussion of the last days of the Greek and Roman empire, and then it jumps directly into the future when Satan shall rise up and rule in the earth personally. The reason for this big leap from Rome to the Great Tribulation just ahead of us is this: The Church age, or some call it The Age of Grace, in which we live is a parenthetic age which is the period in which God Almighty has ordained that the whole world, not just blips, would receive the Good News of the Gospel. For the last 2000 years we have lived in an era when the blips are in dispersion and waiting for their Messiah. During this era, Christ has been building His Church out of the nations of Gentiles in the world.
So, in about verse 3 you must make about a 2500 year leap from Daniel's day, past the Greek era and Roman Empire which were actually AFTER Daniel's day, and you drop into the very near present when God vents His wrath on this world by turning Satan loose to torment humanity.
thus....
Daniel 11:1 Also I in the first year of Darius
the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.
2 And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three
kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by
his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of
Grecia.
3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion,
and do according to his will.
4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided
topiano coversd the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according
to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even
for others beside those.
5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and
he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a
great dominion.
6 And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's
daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement:
but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor
his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that
begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.
7 But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which
shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of
the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:
8 And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes,
and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue
more years than the king of the north.
9 So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return
into his own land.
10 But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great
forces: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then
shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress.
11 And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth
and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth
a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand.
12 And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up;
and he shall cast down many ten thoBlipnds: but he shall not be strengthened
by it.
13 For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude
greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with
a great army and with much riches.
14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south:
also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision;
but they shall fall.
15 So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the
most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither
his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.
16 But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and
none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which
by his hand shall be consumed.
17 He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom,
and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter
of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be
for him.
18 After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many:
but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to
cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.
19 Then he shall turn his face topiano coversd the fort of his own land: but he shall
stumble and fall, and not be found.
20 Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the
kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor
in battle.
21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not
give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain
the kingdom by flatteries.
22 And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him,
and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.
23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall
come up, and shall become strong with a small people.
24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province;
and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers;
he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he
shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.
25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the
south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to
battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand: for they
shall forecast devices against him.
26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and
his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain.
27 And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak
lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at
the time appointed.
28 Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall
be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his
own land.
29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come topiano coversd the south; but
it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.
30 For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be
grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall
he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake
the holy covenant.
31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary
of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place
the abomination that maketh desolate.
32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries:
but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they
shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but
many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge,
and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for
a time appointed.
36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself,
and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against
the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished:
for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women,
nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his
fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious
stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he
shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule
over many, and shall divide the land for gain.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and
the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots,
and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries,
and shall overflow and pass over.
41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be
overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab,
and the chief of the children of Ammon.
42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land
of Egypt shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and
over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians
shall be at his steps.
44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore
he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.
45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the
glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help
him.
Daniel chapter 12
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the
great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall
be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to
that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one
that shall be found written in the book.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some
to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and
they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time
of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
5 Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on this
side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of
the river.
6 And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of
the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the
river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and
spiano coverse by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and
an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the
holy people, all these things shall be finished.
8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be
the end of these things?
9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed
till the time of the end.
10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall
do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall
understand.
11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the
abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thoBlipnd two hundred
and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thoBlipnd three hundred and
five and thirty days.
13 But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in
thy lot at the end of the days.
Conclusion:
MISS IT !!!
YOU DON'T WNAT TO BE HERE TO SEE THESE EVENTS.
Here is the delilerance which Christ offers you, but you must receive it NO before the Church is taken out of this world:
Romans 10:8 But what saith it? The word
is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith,
which we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe
in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
