Thoughts on Isaiah 24, 1-7

Now the Lord is about to lay waste the earth and make it desolate, and he will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants. And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the slave, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor. The earth shall be utterly laid waste and utterly despoiled; for the Lord has spoken this word. The earth dries up and withers, the world languishes and withers; the heavens languish together with the earth. The earth lies polluted under its inhabitants; for they have transgressed laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore a curse devours the earth, and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt; therefore the inhabitants of the earth dwindled, and few people are left. The wine dries up, the vine languishes,

God gives Isaiah in this prophecy insight, into the end times and the coming world court. In verse 2, God explained that neither rank, wealth, nor power, can rescue, of his court. He will judge everyone without discrimination. Isaiah once again underlined the authenticity of this prophecy by the words "the Lord has spoken this word". No one should have doubts about these statements, because what the Lord says, that he will also perform. God makes us realize, that the arrogance and Lust for power of the Authority of the people (governments, church leaders, popes, presidents, etc.) are the basis for his judgment. Because these are they above all, who transgress the laws of God, and changed his commandments. They have by their false teachings seduces the people and so broken the everlasting covenant, because anyone who follows their false teachings is lost, and will be consumed by the fire. There are few People; which are left over.

The seriousness of these prophecies we see from the fact, that today alone millions of people call themselves Christians, and by such a crowd of people may be with certainty not spoken by a few people.

For although be warned throughout the Bible very often before the priests and theologians, who teach the invented gospel of the churches of this world, and there are indeed many, who believe  these worldly church leaders and do not want hear the word of God, the Bible. We find a very significant warning in Hosea 4, 9 - 11: “And it shall be like people, like priest; I will punish them for their ways, and repay them for their deeds. They shall eat, but not be satisfied; they shall play the whore, but not multiply; because they have forsaken the Lord to devote themselves to whoredom. Wine and new wine take away the understanding.”

Would the churches of this world the true gospel, the true God and the true Messiah, Jesus Christ preach, and teach, then would be God's Judgement no longer necessary, especially when the believers let convince themselves of the true doctrine, as to now believe by the worldly teaching. But so has the Lord of this world, which is Satan, in his firm grip the mighty of the world, because he offers to them, in plethora anything as mundane, as prestige, wealth, pomp and splendour. For this reason, the life of this world is getting worse, until it will come the Judgment of God.

Jesus Christ himself, delivers with his statement, that whoever wants to be great in this world, must serve the people, a clear proof, that the churches of this world, who hold on, to their power, their wealth and splendour, with the church of Jesus Christ nothingness have in common.

I am full of hope that Jesus Christ until the Day of Judgement many people will open their eyes and heart. Because that will be necessary for each of God seeks to finally mindful, attentive and with an open heart and prayer, the Bible, the Word of God, study. If you read the Bible, then it must you be clear, how wrong the current teachings of the churches of this world are.

In Ezekiel 16, 59 we read: “Yes, thus says the Lord God: I will deal with you as you have done, you who have despised the oath, breaking the covenant;”

So we should never forget, that the entire Bible, the whole word of God has eternal validity, and only with this assurance in mind, we should study the Bible.

Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised in the city of our God. His holy mountain, beautiful in elevation, is the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the far north, the city of the great King. Within its citadels God has shown himself a sure defence. Then the kings assembled, they came on together. As soon as they saw it, they were astounded; they were in panic, they took to flight; trembling took hold of them there, pains as of a woman in labour, as when an east wind shatters the ships of Tarshish. As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God, which God establishes forever. Selah - We ponder your steadfast love, O God, in the midst of your temple. Your name, O God, like your praise, reaches to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is filled with victory. Let Mount Zion be glad, let the towns of Judah rejoice because of your judgments. Walk about Zion, go all around it, count its towers, consider well its ramparts; go through its citadels, that you may tell the next generation that this is God, our God forever and ever. He will be our guide forever. Amen (Psalm 48, 1-14)
