Today the signs and warning sirens are loudly roaring. The shofar (ram’s horn) blast of alert is piercing into every facet of the U.S.A. and all civilization. While the Biblical evidence is OVERWHELMING with events transpiring daily, the masses of Americans go about their narcissistic lives with a deaf ear to the warning cries of those who comprehend the very hour and what is coming.
Even now, how true is Proverbs 1:24-31 of those in this day. How will they escape such global calamity? My friend, this is very sobering: they WILL NOT (1 Thess. 5:3b)!
"My friend, today as you hear this message of warning, harden not your hearts"
My friend, today as you hear this message of warning, harden not your hearts to the ETERNAL love and strong hand of deliverance found in Almighty God’s Savior for the world, the Lord Jesus Christ (Heb 4:2). Make a strong and valiant attempt to be objective about the real reality and true condition of fallen (unregenerate) man. Six thousand years of human history attests to the fact of man’s violent attitude and godless actions. How can men bring about a global utopia from the wretched state in which they exist?

Before the foundation of the world, Almighty God already had the remedy and solution for Adam’s fallen race (Rom. 5:12-19; 1 Peter 1:18-20; Rev. 13:8).
The Bible states: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him" (John 3:16-17).
"Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father" (Gal 1:4).
Oh my Friend, what hope there is! What love divine! What deliverance from the godless ramifications of fallen humanity! Almighty God has a plan and purpose for YOUR life here in time and a glorious ETERNAL future for you free from the tyranny of sin and the fallen effects of this broken world (1 Cor. 2:9).
"How can men bring about a global utopia from the wretched state in which they exist?"
As surely as the sun will rise tomorrow, the events of “The Day of the Lord” will take place! Be NOT a scoffer or mocker of the warnings from God’s Infallible and Inspired Word (2 Peter 3:3, Jude 1:18).
We have already seen and experienced the horrific events that transpired on September 11, 2001. May we hear with our ears the message and reality of the coming global day of wrath and not dismiss it as foolish heresay.
The Only Hope!
Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, as the Holy Scriptures teach? If not, my friend, place your ETERNAL destiny into His ETERNAL hands. He loves you and wants to save you from the wrath to come. My friend, do you have ears to hear God’s call to you (Rom 10:17, Heb 4:2, Rev 13:9)? Place your trust in Him today. My friend, on the authority of Almighty God’s Word you will NEVER be the same!
The Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand!
The biggest fear most people have is not that the world will end, but that it won’t.
I’ve always respected The Ignorant Fisheman’s writings, and this one is no exception. Thank you.
The unsaved are not even aware enough to be afraid that God exists and His Son is coming back.

23 Again the word of the LORD came to me: 24 “Son of man, say to the land, ‘You are a land that has not been cleansed or rained on in the day of wrath.’ 25 There is a conspiracy of her princes within her like a roaring lion tearing its prey; they devour people, take treasures and precious things and make many widows within her. 26 Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things; they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean; and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27 Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey; they shed blood and kill people to make unjust gain. 28 Her prophets whitewash these deeds for them by false visions and lying divinations. They say, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says’—when the LORD has not spoken. 29 The people of the land practice extortion and commit robbery; they oppress the poor and needy and mistreat the foreigner, denying them justice. 30 “I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one. 31 So I will pour out my wrath on them and consume them with my fiery anger, bringing down on their own heads all they have done, declares the Sovereign LORD.”
Verse 30, in particular, has weighed heavily on my heart the last couple of years. It is my prayer that I am actively seeking ways to build up the wall and stand in the gap.
Good points, thanks!
We deserve HIS wrath, but thanx to HIM we don’t have to see HIS wrath.
Praise Jesus, Praise to the Lamb of God.
Many a raving loon has grown old and died while insisting that the end times are upon us..... any day now.
The Mexicans, Muslims and Marxists are at our throats.
America is at the mall.
Are we any better people than they were back then? I doubt it. ‘Tis my considered opinion that, just as the Jewish Pharisees and Saducees and priests and scribes couldn’t recognize Jesus-Messiah way back when, so our prophecy-interpreting religious omen-diviners won’t have a ghost of a clue if he returns during their time.
Bingo! They had the Light of the world and rejected it. People do not want to truly know! It comes as a thief in the night... can you not see it my friend! Glad you can!
In ending this age... Almighty God will set up His perfect age. The Kingdom of Heaven is coming. Thy Kingdom come.. Thy will be done! It is the center peice of the Lord’s prayer. Things will not go on forever. The Lord is at the door! The Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand!
The biggest fear my friend is the King of Fears... death! (Heb 2:14-15) which Jesus destroyed!! Rev 1:18!! If He defeated death do you not think that He will come to restore what is His? Hope you see it.
and on facebook... lol
That is what it is all about my friend! Eph 5:16-17!!
God speed!!
Grazie! and To God be the glory!!
Not this time my friend... Take an objective mountain top look at the statistics and America’s and the world’s social landscape and let me know what you see. Do not even bring the Bible into it... Optimism is the madness of the blind.
2 Peter 3:3
Ah....ohhh!
Yeah, all the raving end time loons have all thought that THIS is the time. Every one of them has had one thing in common. They have all been wrong.
Meanwhile those who invested in and counted on the future have been rewarded with a nice future. Those who invested in and counted on doom have been shown to be the fool, time after time after time.
But maybe THIS time!
Any time now!
