Subject: Trumpets : The Real War to End all Wars
Summary:
John Reid, recounting the massive cost in blood and carnage from the time of Cain and Abel to the present, affirms that the Day of Trumpets pictures God's corrective actions that God Almighty will take because of His people's and the world's disobedience. History has demonstrated recurring disturbing Zeitgeists (spirit of the times) in which armed conflict has inspired hideous abominable viciousness in mankind that can't even be imagined. War has proven to be the ultimate distraction to growing into the image of God, catastrophically debilitating to every area of life, breaking a nation economically, warping its people psychologically, and destroying the social structure, infrastructure and the core spirit of the people. Because God absolutely hates war and what it has done to His people, He will correctively give them war fraught with more horror than anyone could imagine- a war the inhabitants of the earth will never forget- a war that will truly end all wars. The carnage at the Battle of Armageddon will be immense, with a lake extending 150 miles long consisting of three billion gallons of blood. In retrospect, this final conflict will cause mankind to remember what their desire to disobey God, and what their obsession go to to war has cost them. To those of us commemorating the Feast of Trumpets, it should sober us to the warning correctional side of this day and of the disciplinary side of God's Nature
Keywords: Action taken by God Armageddon Carnage of war Correctional side of God's nature Day of the Lord Fifth Seal Horrors of war Slaughter Slave labor camps Trumpet plagues Trumpets, significance of Trumpets as an alarm for war War Warning side
