The Revelation of Isaiah, Isaiah 24, Part 4 of 5

God has many ways to make our sins come down on our own ears. One those, which is prominently addressed in Isaiah 24 is the land, the earth, being cursed because of our sins, which of course has been the case from the first.

Of course another way that God sometimes uses to bring the fruits of our sins down on us is of war. Both the gospels of Matthew and Luke make it clear that Jerusalem will be destroyed because of the sins of the Jewish nation in rejecting their own Messiah, Jesus the Christ.

But the gospel discussions of the Destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD also kind of slides into a discussion of the end of the world. Many seem to miss the point, but it seems that the Destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD is also symbolic of the way it will be at the end of this present world.

Of course these are terrible things that have happened to the Jews, even though significant numbers have been converted to Christ down through the Christian age.

In the end there will be a complete turnaround of the Jews. Jeremiah pictures a day when,

At the same time, saith the LORD, will I be the God of ALL the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.” Jer 31:1

Of course, that day has not happened YET! It will only happen after a time of severe stress for both Christians and Jews, and of that day it says.

“Thus saith the LORD, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.” Jer 31:2.

This is not about a so-called millennial kingdom, but rather of the time when a very stubborn people at last turn to their own Messiah, and bring about a complete world turnaround for the church of Jesus of Nazareth the Christ of God. Then will be fulfilled what it says in Dan 2:35, that the church/kingdom will “fill the whole earth.”

The full story, of both how the Jews got side tracked, and how at last they will be turned around, is told in my third book, Jewish Chronicles. Available from your book seller.

The Revelation of Isaiah, Isaiah 24, Part 2 of 5

Many view carbon or carbon dioxide, or “fossil fuels” as the greatest threats to our environment, things demanding immediate action, and a complete turnaround in how mankind thinks and works.

In truth, the greatest threats to our environment are spiritual, not chemical.

In truth the outlines of our age are much different than what is presented in our propaganda mills.

My second book, Revealing the Christian Age, gives an overview of the book of Revelation, and the tools you need for further study. It is available from your book seller.

The Revelation of Isaiah, Isaiah 24, 1 of 5

Isaiah 24 is called by many “The Apocalypse of Isaiah.” Apocalypse refers to “Apocalupsis” the Greek title of the New Testament Book of Revelation.

In truth, Isaiah 24 does overlap the book of Revelation and other prophecies of the end of this universe.

Isaiah 24 starts off by talking the earth, the entire world, being ruined by its inhabitats.

It is true that mankind’s sins have always affected our environment.

Many do not know how to approach and intelligently read and understand Bible prophecy. It is a specialized type of literature. My first book, Prophecy Principles, gives the background we need to understand Bible prophecy, and gives an overview of some of the main themes of Bible prophecy.

The Church of Our Lord: An eternal temple made with hands!

The true church of our Lord is NOT a human entity at all. It has no earthly headquarters. It has no earthly head. Jesus is its head, and He is in heaven.

It is an eternal temple made without hands.

We often misunderstand the nature of God’s holy temple, His holy church. We are living stones in this temple 1Pe 2:5 , which will one day fill the whole earth, Dan 2:35.

What You Will See, and What You Will Hear! Isaiah 18. And Yes! WE Will ALL Be There!

Even those who crucified Him, Rev 1:7.

Some think that if we do not know the date and hour of Jesus Coming (which we don’t!), that means there will be no signs of Jesus Second Coming.

This is a Fallacy.

There are many things of which we may not know the day or hour, yet there will be signs of these things being about to happen. You may not know the day or the hour that snow will next fall where you live, HOWEVER, there will signs of snow approaching. Freezing temperatures. Snowy looking clouds.

There are many things we do not or cannot know, but there will be signs of Jesus approaching coming (Lk 21:25-28), and we are to be “Watching,” Mk 13:37 KJV.

To try to unravel the book of Revelation without the Old Testament prophets, is something which I do not think can be done. The book Revealing the Christian Age, tries to tie together many of the main links. Available from your bookseller.

An Uproar of the Nations, and Who Will Be Protected? Isaiah 17

An uproar, a tumult, of the nations against God and His Christ and His followere here on earth, and is a subject of the both the Old Testament and the New Testament, and is talked about in many passages, including Revelation, and in Isaiah 17.

A key question is: Who will be protected during those times? And Scripture gives some answers.

So once again! How far do we take this stuff? How many times have read something in Scripture and said to yourself, “How can that be?”

We read all sorts of things which God says “will be,” and sometimes our eyes sort of glaze over, then we just sort of pass over things, which we should never pass over!

We should trust God! He is smart enough to make all of this? How can He be wrong?

Compare 1Jn 5:10.
