The World Is Passing Away

As you rise every morning and go to sleep every night
This world in its present form is PASSING AWAY. (1 Corinthians 7:31)

The words of the apostle Paul to the Corinthians
Are equally applicable to us today. Listen:
From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none;
Those who mourn, as if they did not;
Those who are happy, as if they were not;
Those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep;
Those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed by them.
For this world in its present form is PASSING AWAY.
(1 Corinthians 7:29-30)

The apostle Paul may not have realized
That he was not living in the last hour of the last day.
Due to the persecution of his day toward Christians, he felt that way.
However, today, we are certainly living in the Last Hour of the Last Day,
And what the apostle Paul spoke of is certainly true of our day.

After the fall of Adam and Eve the world in its fallen state,
In its present form, has been passing away.
It was eradicated in the day of Noah due to its gross SIN,
But allowed to continue through Noah and his sons.
We are simply living is the Last Hour of the Last Day;
The last hour and last day of the six thousand years
God has allowed “Time” to exist.
At the end of the Last Day, Christ Jesus returns and establishes His Kingdom
In Jerusalem on Mount Zion for a thousand years.
At that point this world in its PRESENT FORM will be no more.
The cities of ALL the nations will be collapsed;
The armies of ALL the nations defeated.

Listen to Isaiah:
In the Last Days the mountain of the Lord's Temple
Will be established as chief among the mountains;
It will be raised above the hills, and ALL nations will stream to it.

Many peoples will come and say,
'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the House of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us His ways, so that we may walk in His paths.'

The Law will go out from Zion, the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He [Christ Jesus] will judge between the nations
And will settle disputes for many peoples.

They will beat their swords into plowshares
And their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation will not take up sword against nation,
Nor will they train for war anymore.

Come, O House of Jacob, let us walk in the LIGHT of the Lord.
(Isaiah 2:2-5)
Listen to Isaiah describe what will happen in The Day Of The Lord,
The Day we are living in:

You have abandoned your people, the House of Jacob.
They are full of superstitions from the East;
They practice divination like the Philistines and clasp hands with pagans.
Their land is full of silver and gold;
There is no end to their treasures.
Their land is full of horses; there is no end to their chariots.
Their land is full of IDOLS;
They bow down to the work of their hands, to what their fingers have made.

So man will be brought low and mankind humbled—
Do not forgive them.

Go into the rocks, hide in the ground from dread of the Lord
And the splendor of His Majesty!

They eyes of the arrogant man will be humbled
And the pride of men brought low;
The Lord alone will be exalted in That Day.

The Lord has A Day in store for ALL the proud and lofty,
For ALL that is exalted (and they will be humbled),
For ALL the cedars of Lebanon, tall and lofty, ALL the oaks of Bashan,
For ALL the towering mountains and ALL the high hills,
For every lofty tower and every fortified wall,
For every trading ship and every stately vessel.

The arrogance of man will be brought low
And the pride of men humbled;
The Lord alone will be exalted in That Day,
And the IDOLS will totally disappear.

Men will flee to caves in the rocks and to holes in the ground
From the dread of the Lord and the splendor of His Majesty,
When He rises to shake the earth.

In That Day men will throw away to the rodents and bats
Their IDOLS of silver and IDOLS of gold, which they have made to worship.

They will flee to caverns in rocks and to the overhanging crags
From the dread of the Lord and the splendor of His Majesty,
When He rises to shake the earth.

Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils.
Of what account is he? (Isaiah 2:6-22)

In That Day, ALL the Christ haters, the God haters,
The Word of God haters will be done away with.
ALL that men glory in will be brought to NOTHING!
Where will you be on That Day?

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
