ASSEMBLIES
INSPIRING FEROCITY.
While Jehovah calls for holy assemblies,
(1)
The living dead, in rebellion, worship idols.
(2)
They are judged. Mercifully, few have died.
But the rest did not, in fear, give glory to God.
(3)
(1) Zech 14:16-21. (2)
Rev 9:20,21 (3) Rev 11:13.
While His Son
voices his "flame" of judgement,
(4)
Taunting the wicked with their evil plottings:
At Bradford's ground, mercifully, few died.
But the rest did not, in fear, give glory to God.
(4) 2 Esdras
13:25-38 NEB.
As Jehovah
avenges the cruel blows of "Babylon",
(5)
And gives recompense to His faithful servants,
(6)
He will trample upon "Edomite" enemies
in His anger,
(7)
Because they did not, in fear, give glory to God.
(5)
Rev 18:20,24. (6) Rev
11:17,18 NEB. (7) Isaiah 63:3-5.
While the composite "man of lawlessness" worships
there,
(8)
Sharing unclean spirits and "foreign god"
ways,
(9)
Their spirits will "learn the truth through
torments after death",
(10)
Because they did not, in fear, give glory to God.
(8)
2 Thess 2:1-12. (9) Dan 11:31,39.
(10) 2 Esdras 9:9-12.
As the
"stone" strikes the "image" at its feet,
(11)
At "iron and clay" disunity (the
Bar clay way),
(12)
The Christ Michael destroys their political
"image",
(13)
But will the rest, in fear, then give glory to God?
(11) Dan 2:33-35 NEB.
(12) 2:41-43 NEB.
(13) 2:44,45 NEB.
