Escaping The Wrath Of God

 

Today's verse is Luke 21:36

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

    There are those that believe that the Church of God must suffer with Israel the wrath of God, which is also known as the time of Jacob’s trouble or the Great Tribulation. Yet consider the promise above with these other promises which our God has given to his Bride, the Church. Peter after recounting several judgments God has done, took note: The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished. Then also Paul speaking to the Thessalonians counseled them to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wraith to come, and again, For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ. And finally, Jesus again tells the church at Philadelphia; Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. With all of these and much more, I find that the Blessed Hope, even the hope of the first Resurrection, that we that are alive, will be caught up (Raptured) with those that went before will occur before that Son of Perdition is reveled when he confirms the covenant for seven years with Israel, beginning that time known as The Great Tribulation or Jacob’s Trouble. Amen.

To God be the Glory
