The Late, Great, Planet Earth. Jer 22:29 O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD. What is prophecy, prophecy is a look into the future but it is also a promise made that will occur. There are many that are ignoring prophecy or should I say promises that are made by God. Many are prophesying in the name of the Lord, who do not know Him nor were sent by Him. We must take each promise that God has made as intended promises. There are many people today that are being caught up in books, such as Nostradamus and The Bible Code. These books are deterrents from the real truth of scripture. Nostradamus is fiction, with no truth nor merit. The Bible Code is also fiction and only adds to confusion over the real Bible statements. Neither is worthy to be read. Many in this world are looking for the truth but they are all looking in the wrong places. Many say that the Bible is hard to take and understand, but when you look at the Bible with the spirit, it takes on a whole new meaning. This is not the first time these statements have been made. Look at the disciples for example; Mat 19:24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
Mat 19:25 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
Lets take a look at this next promise; Jer 25:33 And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.[References; Jer 25:33 -
the slain: Jer_25:18-26, Jer_13:12-14; Isa_34:2-8, Isa_66:16; Zep_2:12; Rev_14:19, Rev_14:20; Rev_19:17-21
they shall not: Jer_8:2, Jer_9:21, Jer_9:22, Jer_16:4-7; Psa_79:3, Psa_83:10; Ezek. 39:4-20; Rev_11:9
they shall be: 2Ki_9:37; Isa_5:25 ] Unlike, Nostradamus and The Bible Code books, the Bible prophecys are understandable before an event takes place. The other two books are only readable after the event. As the grapes fall upon the wine press and are consumed upon the ground. Man shall see the wrath of God, they shall feel the heat of His indignation and fall by His hand. God will open up His armory and draw up swords against man and His wickedness and who will be able to stand. This earth and the life that man has made for himself will not stand, will not survive and will never be remembered. Have you noticed the change in the weather, have you noticed the change in the earth as it gets closer to the time of Christ return? Earthquakes in different places, Title waves coming in our life time killing thousands, floods, hurricanes by the dozens? Lets look at Jer 25:31-32; “A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword”, saith the LORD. Thus saith the LORD of hosts, “Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.” The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all ACQUIT {To release or discharge.}the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind {A destructive force, A tumultuous, confused rush.} and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet. (Nah_1:3) Putting the clouds in motion, controlling the storm, Hurricanes and the revolution of man made religion, its putting all on a spin upon its own axis. (Fausset) Suphah, from a root "sweeping away," and searah "tossed about." In Psa_77:18 "Thy thunder was in the heaven," literally, "in the wheel," i.e. the rotation of the visible heavens phenomenally {Known or derived through the senses rather than through the mind.} round the earth, but the Septuagint {A Greek version of the Hebrew Scriptures that dates from the 3rd century b.c., containing both a translation of the Hebrew and additional and variant material, regarded as the standard form of the Old Testament in the early Christian Church and still canonical in the Eastern Orthodox Church. }, the Chaldee {A member of an ancient Semitic people who ruled in Babylonia.}, and the Vulgate {The Latin edition or translation of the Bible made by Saint Jerome at the end of the fourth century a.d., now used in a revised form as the Roman Catholic authorized version.} "in a whirl," whirled about. Eze_10:13 translated "it was cried unto them whirling"; they were called to put themselves into rapid revolution.
