The Daily Word of Righteousness
The Kingdom-age Jubilee, #3
The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call. (Joel 2:31,32)
Yet, even in the midst of the terrifying judgments that soon are to come, "Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered." The earth belongs to the Lord and He will not leave it.
The Glory of the Lord will increase in the saints as the Day of the Lord draws near. "Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the Glory of the Lord is risen upon thee" (Isaiah 60:1). The remnant of saints will be the source of God's authority, protection, and blessing for all who seek Christ during the great tribulation.
At the climax of the darkness, when the world cries "Peace and safety," having destroyed (so it believes) the testimony of the saints, Christ will appear in glory. The dead in Christ will rise. Those who are alive in Christ on the earth will be caught up together to meet the Lord and to participate with Him in the destruction of the forces of wickedness.
The Church at that time will arise (Ezekiel, Chapter 37). The Church, the army of the Lord, will shine as never before because the Father and the Son will be dwelling in the saints (John 14:23; Joel 3:16,17). The Light of the Church, the Lord Jesus Christ, will descend from Heaven and avenge the blood of the saints who have been tortured and martyred on the earth.
Christ will come to tread the grapes of the wrath of God, and all the ungodly will drink of the unmixed wine until they are full.
The Kingdom comes. God's wrath will issue from His Temple.
I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once. (Isaiah 42:14)
There will be poured on the wicked, to an extent never before witnessed on the earth, the destructive vengeance of God. Statesmen, generals, the wealthy, the famous, the poor—all who have chosen the spirit of this age and have refused the Gospel of the Kingdom—will be destroyed at the coming of Christ and His army.
The rulers of the earth will attempt to resist the government from Heaven but all their efforts will be crushed. Finally, they will throw down their weapons and cry out to the mountains and rocks to hide them from the Face of God and from the wrath of the Lamb (Revelation 6:16).
To no avail. They will be sought out and killed. Every person who resists Christ will be consumed by the fire of God's judgment.
The thousand-year Kingdom Age will be a period of judgment, war, and liberation. It will result in the destruction of those who resist Christ but also in the building up of the saints of God and in deliverance and healing of the earth and its peoples.
To be continued.
