Hi John and Doves,
I am drawn by this account in Luke 21, where Jesus was asked about the end of days. ALL emphasis is mine to highlight the possible near-future scenario.
Luke 21: 25-28
There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. AT THAT TIME they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with POWER and GREAT GLORY. When these things BEGIN to take place, stand up and lift up your heads because your redemption is drawing near.
According to the account in Luke 21, everybody will see what is happening. Every person will be terrified as these things unfold. The sea will be tossing and roaring and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. While this anguish and terror is being experienced by all - everybody will see (with their own eyes), the Son of Man coming in a cloud. WITH POWER AND GREAT GLORY.
We will KNOW that our redemption is about to happen - even in the midst of tremendous world panic and sheer terror.
I have linked Revelation 6 below as I believe this ties in with Luke 21: 25-28. All the power elites will be seeing the exact same things we are all seeing. They too, will see the Son of Man coming in great glory. They too, will see the approaching catastrophe coming upon the earth (a mega-tsunami as per Caroline's testimony?) They will have time to hide themselves in their "caves" and underground hide-outs. They will KNOW that the time of wrath has arrived.
The eruption on La Palma and now Kilauea, have served to clarify prophecy. A mega-tsunami will give people time to either hide or to scream out their repentance. For all who call on the Name of the LORD will be saved. Luke 17:32-33 tells us to, "Remember Lot's wife. Whoever tries to keep their life (running and hiding) will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it."
I have a deep, deep knowing that true believers will be taken out of harms way before losing our lives. Last minute repentants will have to stand firm. I may be wrong but we are NOT given a spirit of fear. At THAT time - we will know.
Praying so hard for the peace of Jerusalem.
PLEASE Come, LORD Jesus.
