A Prophetic Declaration part two

The prophets throughout the era of the Old Testament had two great prophetic themes:Judgement -and Glory.The Old Testament prophet did not see the church age..... it was a mystery until it was revealed to the Apostle Paul,who makes known that revelation in the book of Ephesians.As the end of the church age draws near,Jews and Gentiles will become wicked as never before on the face of the earth (Isaiah60:2).The nations will be gathered in open rebellion against the Lamb of God (Rev.19:19)and they will fight against Jerusalem (Zech.14:2).Therefore,the earth must be cleared of evil and ungodly men before the Lord Jesus comes back to reign in glory,with His Church.Before leaving this section,let me point out that Christ is nowhere said to come with the clouds to gather the Church out of the earth.On the contrary,the saints go up in the clouds(1Thess.4:17).God provides a royal carriage to convey the saints from the earth to meet the Lord in the air.Pardon me for a minute while I have a Praise Break,you missed your chance to shout right there (smile) Let's get back on track,Clouds in the Old Testament were the well-known symbol of the presence of Jehovah with His people (Ex.13:21-40;Ex.40:34-38;Luke 9:35).Christ is not only said to come "in the clouds"(Mark13:26) but He will come with the clouds (Rev.1:7) and in the clouds (Matt.24:30).The clouds which attend His coming are symbols of His majesty and glory.Read Psalm 18:9-12.The Lord sits on the clouds,as on His Throne.We believers will be caught up in the clouds (1Thess.4:17).The Lord Jesus ascended in the clouds (Acts1:9)and He will come in a cloud (Luke21:27).These facts are very interesting to spiritually minded believers.The statement "every eye shall see Him"is to be taken literally.Every eye will not see Him at the same identical split second-but every eye will see Jesus.One class is singled out from the mass of mankind and mentioned as "they which pierced Him".The entire earth will be open conflict against the Lord God and His Anointed (read Psalm2),but this one group is pointed out specifically.John is the only one who records the incident of the Gentile spear which pierced the Saviour's side (John19:33-37).Pilate admitted three times that there was no fault in Jesus(John18:38-19:6);but in spite of the fact that Rome knew Jesus to be innocent,they allowed Him to be scourged and crucified .The Jews screamed aloud for His death.They invited His blood to be not only upon them,but upon their children;and their children have inherited that guilt for generations.They will see Him "whom they pierced"(read Zech.12:10).The people's referred to as "those who pierced Him"are the people whom we know today as Jews."All the tribes of the earth shall wail because of Him."This coming in the clouds in great glory and power will take place over the the entire universe at the same identical time.All the people's of all the earth will see the Son of God coming in the clouds of Glory.In chapter six we will learn that a world-wide prayer meeting will immediately be in progress.....but the prayers will be unanswered.Verse 7 closes with the words"......Even so,Amen".That is a double "amen",and certainly carries much weight spiritually.Amen means "so be it."The Spirit is saying here,"This is true.It will happen exactly as stated."Folks Jesus is coming soon I want to be ready how about you?
