no we are not appointed to wrath...
I just finished up your book a Sword on the land and I thought it was really Well done very scholarly and well researched. God bless you Pastor
Rev 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial... 15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Jesus comes "as a thief" after the bowls of wrath are poured out, not before!
1 Thess 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
This salvation from wrath our Jesus will accomplish when he returns on his white horse at the battle of Armegeddon!
That’s been plain to me since I began studying Prophecy in the mid 1990’s.
A lot of Christians don’t understand that God will not let His Children go down in a house that will burn due to his Judgement, even those who are “misbehaving”.
What happened to Enoch will happen very soon “like a thief in the night” to His Church.
