Subject: The Wrath to Come |
Bible Note: The Wrath to Come 1 Thess. 1:10 and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come. Today as I watched one World Trade Center tower burning I saw a jet airliner torpedo into the other. Huge plumes of flame exploded from the sides of the second tower. The fire and smoke to me was a picture of the wrath of God. This was indeed a day of wrath. Was this in a way an expression of the wrath of God toward America? Even if it wasn’t, nonetheless many hundreds of people died a fiery death. I found myself weeping several times today as I thought of the spouses made widows, the children made orphans and the tragic loss of lives. But as terrifying and horrible as this day has been it will pale compared to the Day of Wrath. How many of those people who died a fiery death today will have to face a second fiery death that will last forever? I am sobered by today. But as terrible as today was, people need to be warned of a day even more terrible, and it’s coming soon. Eph. 5:15, 16 Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. Peace, Lionstrong |
