isn't like that.
Zephaniah 1
2-4, 6.
Judgment on the Whole Earth in the Day of the Lord
“I will sweep away everything
from the face of the earth,”
declares the Lord.
“I will sweep away both man and beast;
I will sweep away the birds in the sky
and the fish in the sea—
and the idols that cause the wicked to stumble.”
“When I destroy all mankind
on the face of the earth,”
declares the Lord,
“I will stretch out my hand against Judah
and against all who live in Jerusalem.
I will destroy every remnant of Baal worship in this place,
the very names of the idolatrous priests—...
those who turn back from following the Lord
and neither seek the Lord nor inquire of him.”
Zephaniah 1, 7
Be silent before the Sovereign Lord,
for the day of the Lord is near.
The Lord has prepared a sacrifice;
he has consecrated those he has invited.
Zephaniah 1, 11-13.
Wail, you who live in the market district;
all your merchants will be wiped out,
all who trade with silver will be destroyed.
At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps
and punish those who are complacent,
who are like wine left on its dregs,
who think, ‘The Lord will do nothing,
either good or bad.’
Their wealth will be plundered,
their houses demolished.
Though they build houses,
they will not live in them;
though they plant vineyards,
they will not drink the wine.”
Zephaniah 1, 14-18.
The great day of the Lord is near—
near and coming quickly.
The cry on the day of the Lord is bitter;
the Mighty Warrior shouts his battle cry.
That day will be a day of wrath—
a day of distress and anguish,
a day of trouble and ruin,
a day of darkness and gloom,
a day of clouds and blackness—
a day of trumpet and battle cry
against the fortified cities
and against the corner towers.
“I will bring such distress on all people
that they will grope about like those who are blind,
because they have sinned against the Lord.
Their blood will be poured out like dust
and their entrails like dung.
Neither their silver nor their gold
will be able to save them
on the day of the Lord’s wrath.”
In the fire of his jealousy
the whole earth will be consumed,
for he will make a sudden end
of all who live on the earth.
Zephaniah 2, 3
Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land,
you who do what he commands.
Seek righteousness, seek humility;
perhaps you will be sheltered
on the day of the Lord’s anger.
Zephaniah 2:10-11
This is what they will get in return for their pride,
for insulting and mocking
the people of the Lord Almighty.
The Lord will be awesome to them
when he destroys all the gods of the earth.
Distant nations will bow down to him,
all of them in their own lands.
"The Lord will be awesome to them
when he destroys all the gods of the earth."
He just did it.
It doesn't matter if you believe it or not..
Its already happened.
So?
Wats to do now?
Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land,
you who do what he commands.
Seek righteousness,
seek humility;
perhaps you will be sheltered
on the day of the Lord’s anger.
Remember.
We haven't really even started end times yet.
Almosy.
But not quite yet.
Best gets your hearts right.
Admit to yourself what you always knew to be true all along but ran from.
Eternity is a mighty long time.
