"Mark it: History--mark it!--does not quietly, gradually merge into some environmental meltdown. History does not quietly and gradually merge into the kingdom of Christ, as the post-tribulationless, the reconstructionists, the theonamists, and kingdom theologues would like us to believe.
"The kingdom comes with fury and viciousness in a cataclysmic, divisive intervention from Heaven that happens in split seconds. The end of human history will come with violence, fiery judgment, the whole earth bathed in blood on that great day of God Almighty the prophets call the Day of the Lord."
John MacArthur preaching Revelation 19
