(Revelation 11:18) “The nations raged, but your wrath came,”
What a frightening thought for all who reject God and His eternal gift of Salvation in and through the perfect work of the Lord Jesus Christ. The nations may rage, they may continue as they always have, even just like in the days of Noah; “For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.”
That day will come as assuredly as the sun rises at the crack of dawn, so will the coming of the wrath of God in judgement befall the earth and on all who rage against Him. You may say because the spiritual realm is higher than the natural dominion and we cannot physically see the goings on around and about us and opt not to believe in its existence, I can assure you that doesn’t mean it isn’t real, It is as real as the pain you feel when you pinch you skin. Time stands still for no man, it is impossible to cheat time and so it will be impossible to ignore life after death in the spiritual sphere. God is a spirit and He is eternal, He has no beginning and neither an end yet He has created the spiritual empire and we all will somehow play a part in it. Some to life everlasting with a glorified body that will be incorruptible and it will be made up of the same substance that the Lord Jesus’ resurrected body consists of. Yet others, those you rage against God, all the “sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things (practice) will not inherit the kingdom of God.” They will face God’s wrath, they will wish for death rather than His fury. There will be those who call for rocks to kill them rather than having to face an angry God.
(Revelation 6:16) “Calling to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb.” To them they will receive a judgement that I can barely even bring myself to pen, it will be so horrendous; they will be judged and cast into the “lake of fire” (hell) forever and ever. That means there will be no end to that pain, it will be a continuous gnashing and wailing of teeth. We all have experience pain in one form or another but the pain is soon forgotten when it subsides. However when it is active it is a terrible encounter, but imagine the familiarity never ending! Why, Why and Why will you not repent? Do you not believe this will happen, do you think God will be mocked? Or do you think this is all some fairy tale? I can guarantee you that all that the bible predicts will come to pass. Yes, one third of the earth will be destroyed by fire! (Revelation 8:7) “...And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.” Yes, there will be such tribulation on the earth that since its survival it will be the worst time it has ever had to envisage. It will be so treacherous that if God even in His rage did not have mercy and stop His judgement all would die. He wields the power of life and death in His hand and the sooner you learn to yield to Him the better off you will be. Resist Him and you will uncover the brunt of His wrath! (Matthew 24:21-22) “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.”
Even with all these warnings, “the nations raged” and “your wrath came.” So the facts remain the same. Yet in all this upcoming gloom and doom it has been written, (John 3:16) “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” There it is for the world across every nation tribe and tongue to embrace and lay hold of eternal life. (Acts 3:19) ”Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out.” Today you have the chance to do exactly that, repent and turn your eyes upon Jesus and look full into His wonderful face. He alone can save you from the wrath which will come both in this life and the verve that is still coming. The saying that is flippantly bandied about “you only die once” is a lie from the very pit of hell. For most there will be a second death and that will mean hell forever and ever. (Revelation 2:11) “He, who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who conquers will not be hurt by the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) “But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."
To you my friends that have had some influence in my life that is why I can call you my friends, I appeal to you, Bandit, Richard, Warren and Trevor take heed to the warnings I as a friend share with you, my prayer is that you will find repentance and escape God’s judgement. I leave you with this... “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Fall to your knees and cry out to the only One who is able to save, cry out to Jesus and your sins will be forgiven you. There is no other way whereby a man may find forgiveness and be saved. I prayer Father that you would have mercy on these men; you alone can open their eyes to see. I pray that you mercy may reach them and faith through grace would find them. I pray to you my heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ your Son and my Saviour as you alone wield the power to grant the request of my prayer.
