Be honest, we earned His wrath, we deserve it!
Yes, the world deserves God's wrath and the Sixth Seal disaster will be it.
The cup of wrath : Psalms 75:8, Revelation 14:17-20
Jeremiah 25:15-29
All the kingdoms on the face of the earth must receive from the Hand of the Lord, the cup of the wine of His wrath, all the nations must drink of it. The Lord of Hosts: God of Israel has spoken! – Drink this and get drunk, be sick, fall down never to rise again, because of the sword I am sending among you. I shall first punish the city that bears My Name, do you think that you can be exempt? No, for I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth.
This great testing will come
‘against all the inhabitants of the earth’. No one will be ‘raptured ‘ out of it. The area that will bear the brunt of this punishment is the Middle East, but the whole world will be affected. Jeremiah 9:10-11, Ezekiel 20:47-48 & 21:1-7, Obadiah 16
Jeremiah 25:30-32
The Lord will thunder from on high and roar mightily against His Land. This great noise reaches around the world. He will bring judgement to all mankind and the wicked shall die. Disaster will spread from nation to nation, a mighty tempest will blow up from the far corners of the earth. 2 Peter 3:7 & 10
‘
Thunder from on high’, heard around the world, ‘
a mighty tempest spreads from country to country’. This gives the clue as to what it is that causes this terrible disaster. A CME sunstrike, Isaiah 30:26a, will affect each area in succession as the earth rotates to face the sun. Joel 2:2 describes how it all happens:
Like the dawn it spreads across the mountains, then Joel uses the metaphor of a vast army to give the impression of a huge mass.
Joel 2:3 says exactly what does happen;
Before them, a fire devours, behind them is a blazing flame, in front the land is a garden, behind is a desolate waste, nothing survives their passing. Temperatures of 175c = 350f will kill millions and the highly charged cosmic particles will destroy most of our modern infrastructure. Jeremiah 4:23-29
Jeremiah 25:33
Those whom the Lord has slain on that Day will lay scattered from one end of the world to the other, they will not be mourned or buried, they will be as dung spread over the ground. Jeremiah 9:21-22, Isaiah 66:24, Isaiah 34:2-3
Jeremiah 25:34-38
Wail and mourn, you shepherds of the flock, you leaders – for your time to be slaughtered has come, you will fall and be smashed like pottery. You cannot escape and the Lord will destroy your pastures and homes. The Land will become a waste because of this judgement of His fierce anger. Zephaniah 1:14-18
This is a terrible indictment against those who preach false teaching and who deny Bible truths. Isaiah 3:13-15, James 3:1
The Land of Greater Israel will be uninhabited and desolate after this Day of the Lord’s vengeance and wrath. A Jewish remnant will remain in Jerusalem. Isaiah 24:1-4
Then the Lord promises rain and regeneration ‘
in a very short time’ Isaiah 29:17, Isaiah 35:1-10, Ezekiel 36:8
His Christian people will gather and settle into all of the Land that He promised to their forefathers. Jeremiah 31, Ezekiel 34:11-16 The new Land of Beulah. Isaiah 62:2b-5
They will live there in peace and security, fulfilling His plan for them to be a nation that shows the rest of the world how we were intended to live. Isaiah 43:10
Later, at the glorious Return of Jesus, it is them who say “
Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord”!
