Luke 21:33-36 Making yourself worthy to escape that which shall come upon this earth

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 

 

Luke 21:33-36

 

Jesus says:

 

33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but MY words shall not pass away.

 

34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting (over indulgence), and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

 

35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

 

36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

At the great tribulation, at the end of this world, God will bring HIS wrath upon this earth. 

(see Revelation 8, 9, 16)

 

Will we be worthy to escape that which comes upon this earth?

 

Luke 21:25-27  Jesus says:

 

25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

 

26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

 

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

Will we be accounted worthy to escape that which is coming upon this earth?

 

As the wickedness of this world and the apostate churches grows more blatant for all to see, we know we grow closer to the wrath that comes through God upon this present world and the apostate church who refuse to obey scriptures and set up doctrines to approve themselves in their sins.

 

Matthew 24  (Jesus says)

 

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

 

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

 

37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

 

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

 

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

 

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

 

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

 

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

 

Will some Christians be taken out while other Christians who are not ready be left to go through the great tribulation?

God shows the Old Testament prophets that which will come at the end of the earth:

 

Isaiah 13

 

9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and HE shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.

 

10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in HIS going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

 

11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

 

12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.

 

(There will be few men who stand up for truth and righteousness.  Integrity will vanish.  That is what it means when we read there will be few men.)

 

13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of HIS fierce anger.

Joel 1

 

15  Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

 

Joel 2

 

1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

 

2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

 

3 A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.

 

10 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:

 

11 And the LORD shall utter HIS voice before HIS army: for HIS camp is very great: for HE is strong that executeth HIS word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

 

(Mt. 24:21-22  For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.)

 

Joel 2

 

30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.

 

31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

 

32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

What the day of the Lord will be like:

 

Amos 5:19  As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
