![]() 2 And I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had been victorious over the beast and his image and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, holding harps of God. Revelation 15:1 Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels who had seven plagues, which are the last, because in them the wrath of God is finished. Read with me the few verses that show the picture of this moment before destruction: He knew and wrote of God’s absolute right to judge and crush all rebellion. John wasn’t embarrassed to report that is exactly what He will do. The Bible defines what God considers His responsible duty – to stamp out all effects and power of sin and rebellion. Strangely, the Bible writer doesn’t so squeamish about God’s rights and man’s mutiny. Why? Because disconnecting the penalty of judgment from the mutiny of man removes the real sense of the heinousness of sin – and diminishes God’s absolute right as Creator to insist that all things belong solely to Him. Heaven’s story is incomplete without the revelation of God’s wrath. This Polaroid of Heaven exposes a moment that shows God’s judgment as holy and as necessary as the revelation of His coming rewards. Second, seeing Heaven frozen in that moment should encourage us – God knows the effects of sin have been hard for us to navigate. Key Principle: Opening Heaven’s window and pulling back the curtain on this moment before judgment is unleashed should help us understand two essential truths: First, we must accelerate sharing the message of God’s escape from wrath. Most of all, it is given to the church because it uncovers a strange encouragement – God knows how hard the mutiny has been on all of us. It reveals something about how God feels about sin and rebellion. ![]() It reveals the swift nature of the end of rebellion and sin. It reveals the feeling in the room as judgment is set to fall. The glimpse into this moment is very revealing. It is the story of the moment before – the moment just before the deluge. It isn’t the story of the destruction – that will come. It is the moment before the dam broke above the on the feeble defenses of the arrogant. This is a glimpse into the throne room before the final rush of God’s complete and total victory over mutinous humanity. This is the story of judgment and wrath hanging in the air above the physical universe. ![]() There is a moment – just after the beautiful crystal glass has slipped from your fingers – and before it shatters on the ceramic tile floor … the story of this chapter of Revelation IS that moment. There is a moment – just after the bullet is fired, but before it strikes the target. ![]() Repeat… she is losing integrity…” The men knew it was a matter of moments from the largest disaster anyone in that room had ever seen. I am seeing the beginning of cracks…Yes, five, she is losing integrity. “Engineer six, what is your status?” the com signal echoed. Transfixed, each man, on his own station – the control room quiet was shattered by the loud crackle of the Motorola handset. There was no relief for the pressure, and the back pressure on the wall was already well into exceeding tolerances. The pressure valves were stuck shut, and the water behind the massive dam was now piling up. Men scrambled to stations as they looked anxiously at dials and fiddled nervously with switches and dials. This time the buzzer sounded, and the red light blared in the control room. The red light never went on before – except during the drills and tests. ![]() When scoring, pair up your Favors with cards you have costing, for 2 per pair.īeim Zählen der Punkte: Bilde Paare aus je einem deiner Gefallen mit je einer deiner Karten, die kosten pro Paar 2.
