Practical application of Pentecostal theology in politics, economy and social issues
WHERE WILL YOU BE DURING THE WRATH OF GOD?
What group in Revelation 7 do you want to belong to? The 144 000 sealed who will be going through the wrath of God but will be human beings during kingdom or the Multitude or Bride of Christ who will rule with Christ and will live in the New Jerusalem?
The Hezekiah (Heb: Chizkiyahu) narrative in II Kings (chapters 17 – 20) and Isaiah (36 – 39) concludes on a dissonant and haunting confrontation between King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah. Hezekiah has just shown his kingdom’s wealth to messengers of Brodach Baladan, King of Babylonia. Isaiah asks Hezekiah about his guests, and when Hezekiah tells him where they are from, Isaiah proclaims:
Behold, days are coming and everything in your house and what your
ancestors have collected until this day will be carried off to
Babylonia, nothing will remain saith the Lord. And the children that
you will beget will be taken to be eunuchs in the palace of the King
of Babylonia. And Hezekiah responded to Isaiah, the word of the Lord
that you have spoken is good, insomuch as there will be peace and
truth in my days. (II Kings 20:17-18, JPS translation).
This prophecy of doom is devastating and perplexing. Does Isaiah mean to say that Hezekiah is literally responsible for the future exile and destruction at the hands of Babylonians? If so, what did he do wrong? How should Hezekiah have known it was bad to receive foreign emissaries from Babylonia?

Where is WW1 and WW2 in the Bible?

The problem – Nebuchadnezzar about to throw 3 boys into a furnace because they will not worship his idol.
The preTribber solution – whisk the boys to heaven.
God’s solution – let them be put in the furnace, protect them while they are IN the furnace and get in the furnace with them.
The problem – Pharaoh’s army is about to massacre fleeing former slaves.
The preTribber solution – whisk the former slaves to heaven.
God’s solution – drown the army with the same water the former slaves just walked through.
The problem – a king wants to put a man of God in a lions den.
The preTribber solution – whisk the man of God to heaven
.
God’s solution – Let the man of God be put in the lions den.
Make the lions leave him alone. Then later the same lions kill others before the others even hit the floor.
The problem – Evil jealous men want to crucify the Son of God.
The preTribber solution – whisk Jesus to heaven.
God’s solution – Let them crucify Jesus. Then bring Jesus back from the dead and make Him Lord of the universe.

WWIII : The Sixth Trumpet
Revelation 9:13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. 16And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. 17And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. 18By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 19For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
