Daniel 7
Four beasts
And a judgement
Jesus is the judge.
The final call from God.
The end of this world as we know it.

Q17 In the prophecy of Revelation recorded by John, what is the last prophetic warning sent by our Creator to everyone in the world?
And I saw another angel [messenger with a message] fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation and kindred and tongue and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God and give glory to Him for the hour of His judgement is come; worship Him that made heaven and earth the sea and all that in them is. Revelation 14:6,7. |
 |
NOTE: Once the first phase of the judgement has been completed, and the records have revealed the faithful followers of God, all activity in the world as we know it now will cease. All decisions are made, no-one will change sides. The Gospel will be finished.
The seven last plagues will be poured out on those who have been working against God, see Revelation 15 and 16. At the time of the last plague when hail as heavy as car batteries is falling with thunderings and lightnings, there will be the greatest earthquake of all time, Revelation 16:18-21, and Jesus will come from heaven with His armies, Revelation 19:11-16. The world will be laid in ruins and the evil slain.
Those who have been loyal to God of all ages will be resurrected to life and taken together with the living righteous, into the clouds of angels to meet the Lord in the air and be with Him and each other forever. The Bible calls this the Blessed Hope. Titus 2:13
How will you respond to the words of this angel concerning the judgement that we must all face?

SUMMARY BOX
This vision showed four beasts and an increasingly open rebellion against God. This will be accompanied by persecution of those who have chosen for God and destruction of God’s created world. But the agents of Satan can only go so far.
God declares the judgement open. All are involved in this judgement, the dead and the living, the angels in heaven and those who have fallen, along with Satan - and even God Himself.
A VERSE TO REMEMBER
‘For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son.’ John 5:22. |
