Apocalypse NOW!
Part 18:
“Doomsday Clock Moved Forward Today!”

“And because iniquity shall abound,
the love of many shall wax cold.
But he that shall endure unto the end,
the same shall be saved.”
Matthew 24:12, 13
.
.
.
.
.
Today, the infamous “Doomsday Clock” was just moved forward, now only 2-1/2 minutes till midnight.
.
Well, there was a lot of partisan politics involved in the decision to move it forward.
.
And while it was largely political reasons that led to the decision to move the hands forward, there are other reasons which should also have been considered.

WHAT SAITH THE SCRIPTURES?
.
But those who oversee this clock have no idea what the Bible says about doomsday. For one thing, the Bible never even calls it “doomsday”. The correct name is “Judgment Day”.
.
So, let’s take a moment to explore what the Bible has to say about this fearful day, and why it’s probably a good idea to move those hands closer to that midnight hour…
.
.
.
.
.
.
THE LOVE OF MANY SHALL WAX COLD
.
First, listen to this description of the last days…“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” Matthew 24:12
.
Just look out on this sad world, and behold the growing hatred between various groups.
.
In politics, in gender, in race, in religions, in ideologies, between nations: like never before, the human race, in the name of, “celebrating and embracing our diversity”, are actually growing increasingly intolerant of one-another, even hateful!

NEIGHBORS FEARFUL
.
And even in local neighborhoods, many people are becoming increasingly fearful of their own neighbors, not knowing who they can trust.

INTERNET ATTACKS
.
And on the Internet, there are a million different ways for adults and children to be violated in some way.
.
.
.
.
.
.
But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
(Matthew 18:6, Mark 9:42, Luke 17:2)
.
And even in the public-school systems, children are being indoctrinated into harmful lifestyles and into atheistic political persuasions!
.
And if God pronounces such a harsh judgment on even one person who “offends one of these little ones”, just imagine if an entire society and world begins to abuse and offend an entire generation of “little ones”!!!

“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man…But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all”
Luke 17:26, 29
.
One of the signs of Heaven’s impending judgments is now being seen as this present world is turning to sodomy, even coercing the entire populace to embrace sodomy!
.
Certainly, such a dramatic development should cause the public to get very nervous about where we are in time!

SIGNS OF HEAVEN NOW APPEARING
.
A second reason for moving forward that doomsday clock is found in the following prophecy of Luke 21:25…“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;”
.
Now, concerning the sea and waves roaring, there has indeed been several devastating tsunamis over the past few years.
.
But never have there been signs in the sun moon, and stars.
.
Never has there been revealed a fearful message as is now being revealed in the sun, moon, and stars!
.
.
.
.
.
.
DOOMSDAY CLOCK
.
And so, these are just several reasons for moving that fearful clock’s minute-hand forward.
.
But these aforementioned Bible prophecies by themselves give us enough confirmation that we are now standing at the threshold of that great Day of Judgment coming upon the entire world.

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY!”
Proverbs 25:25
.
Well, there is some very Good News in all this doom-and-gloom! Yes, the Bible reveals in Joel 2:31 & 3:14…“The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come…Multit
udes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the Valley of Decision.”
.
Yes, the day of the Lord is NEAR in the Valley of Decision! In other words, God has allowed us enough time to make our decision to follow Jesus, unreservedly! The doors of mercy are still ajar.
.
Oh yes, the Day of the Lord is very near! Therefore, let us cast away all our presumptuous apathy and careless indifference, and fall down before His throne of grace, pleading for His holy fire to ignite our hearts into action!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

for the day of the Lord is near in the ‘Valley of Decision’.”

“The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining…
.
“The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem…
.
“And the heavens and the earth shall shake…

“But the LORD will be the hope of His people, and the strength of the children of Israel.

LOCATING THIS CONSTELLATION GROUP…
.
“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.” Micah 4:1, 2
.
.
Look eastward in the early summer through fall. Find the Cassiopeia Constellation. Cassiopeia is the Mount of Blessing. In the sketch, it is the farthest mountain to the left. In the sky, it is the northern-most of these three mountains when facing eastward. It resembles a pyramid.
.
Then find the second pyramid to its right (south).
.
Then go a little further south to the next third pyramid. The third snow-cap is the Destroying Mountain Constellation.
.
These three pyramids are the snow-capped portion of these three mountains in this sketch. (of course, you won’t see the snow-caps in the sky. They are just an embellishment in this sketch to present a concept-EDITOR).
