                The Almighty is One to Fear
Jeremiah 10:10
But the LORD is the only true God.  He is the
everlasting King! The whole earth trembles at
His anger.  The nations hide before His wrath.  (NLT)

     Even in this Church Age, the LORD still speaks to His people through many prophets, but He does not make it known when He pours out His anger upon this wicked world.  Although God does not often speak in a voice we can hear, He does speak directly into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.  The Lord God came the first time as our Savior, to save mankind from their sins and the condemnation that was deserved.  But when He comes the second time, He is coming as the conquering King with fire in His eyes and a sword in His mouth to destroy His enemies who refuse to fear Him.  It is true that Jesus Christ is our gracious and forgiving God who loves His creation, but we must not forget the power behind the One God who created all things.  Although He came to do for us what we could not do for ourselves and to satisfy the anger of God, the Son will put an end to the wickedness of this world by burning it up with fire and brimstone.  And God warns us that it won't be pretty, for there will be a lot of suffering, pain, blood and death. 
     Our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ is King and you need to fear His power.  You need to let the Savior open your eyes to the Truth.   You must respect the Power of God for it is infinitely more powerful than the entire universe that He created with but a Word.  Although we have a loving God who is abundant in mercy and grace, we must also understand that the Almighty God is perfectly just as well, and He will have the last say.  Sadly, most people either deny the existence of the Almighty God or they completely ignore His sovereignty—they simply have no fear of the LORD.  It is unwise my friends, to disregard the warnings from God.  It would behoove you to heed those warnings if you have not already done so, because if you are living on this earth during the seven years of God's fiery wrath, there will be no place that will hide you from it.

                            A Whisper of Hope
My warnings, dear child...are clear and easy to understand.  It is true that I am the Savior of the world, but it is also true that I am also the Judge of the world; a just and righteous Judge that will pour out My judgment on those who defy My sovereign authority.

Revelation 16:1-2
Then I heard a mighty voice shouting from the Temple to the
seven angels, “Now go your ways and empty out the seven
bowls of God's wrath on the earth.”  So the first angel left the
Temple and poured out his bowl over the earth, and horrible,
malignant sores broke out on everyone who had the mark of
the beast and who worshiped his statue.  (NLT)

       Can't you see how kind He has been 
  in giving you time to turn from your sin.
                               (Romans 2:4)
