Maranatha - The lord is coming: September 7th
📖 “But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.” (1 Thessalonians 5:4)
The Bible makes clear that God’s people need not be caught by surprise when the end comes. Jesus will not leave the Most Holy Place until every case has been decided for life or for death. When His intercession is finished, He will remove His priestly garments and put on the robes of vengeance. At that moment probation closes, and the wrath of God will be poured out upon those who have rejected truth. The order is clear: the anger of the nations, the wrath of God, and the judgment of the dead — each distinct, each following in its time.
Angels are even now holding back the four winds of strife until Christ’s work is complete. Then will come the seven last plagues, enraging the wicked against the righteous. Believers will be blamed for the judgments, and a decree will be issued to destroy them. This is the time of Jacob’s trouble, when God’s people cry out for deliverance with anguish of soul. But just as prophecy foretells, the voice of God will break through the darkness, and His faithful will be delivered.
The future has been laid out as plainly as Christ once revealed His death and resurrection to His disciples. Yet many, like them, close their eyes to what has been revealed. Now is the time to study, prepare, and walk in the light of prophecy. The events connected with the close of probation and the time of trouble are not hidden mysteries. They are clear warnings, so that we may be found ready when Michael stands up and the great final conflict begins.
