(Cont.
from Page 7/11/85A).
ENEMIES ARE GIVEN "BLOOD TO DRINK".
The revelation that during the definitive
period called the "great tribulation" beloved people of God were gathered by the
"good news" of salvation through The Christ (which is now ended), will cause
great bitterness among those who made tribulation for His people, for they are
excluded from God. They will feel as though they have been given "blood to
drink"
(Rev 16:4-7. 8:10,11), while "death keeps fleeing from them." (Rev 9:6).
Spirit "waters" from God in the form of "hail" (judgement) in the spirits of
these men, and in those with the "mark" of the "wild beast", will cause them to
curse God. (Rev 16:21
Moffatt). THEY ARE JUDGED.
THIS PERIOD (1985).
Currently, representatives from charitable
institutions, Christendom and the UN are lobbying world leaders for a specific
purpose: To inspire them by demonic expressions and authority to gather
for the war against Almighty God. How? Jehovah God has begun to desolate
particular regions of the earth, holding back "pouring rain" in those places as
He prophesied to bring about His new age: The "new heavens" and the "new
earth".
(Isaiah 66:22). Consequently, charities, sectarian misleaders (the "false
prophet"), politicians (the "wild beast"), and even pop idols, are all
desperately appealing for resources from world governments to internationally
forestall the effects of drought and famine from God that will ultimately lead
to their abyssing "while still alive". (Rev 16:13-16.
19:20). The one "driving [others] to work" is losing his authority. (Isaiah
14:4-8). Now we can understand Revelation 11:18 a little better.
THE RESOURCES OF THE NATIONS WILL COME IN AFTER
GOD BRANDISHES HIS WHIP AGAINST ENEMIES OF ZION.
After the denunciations of God in the
"Little Scroll" (His indignation* causing
bitterness) are fully revealed to anointed sons of "Mount Zion" (and are
'prophesied again') God will brandish His "whip" against cruel "haughtily
exultant ones", symbolized by the "Assyrian". (Rev 10:1-11) (Isaiah 10:25,26).
Their "yoke" upon His people will be removed. Jehovah will also remove the
boundaries and plunder the treasures of the "Assyrian" the "wealth of nations"
within each country. (Isaiah 10:13,14
NEB). These resources will come in during a time of thick gloom over the nations
("clouds".
Mark 13:24-26). "For, look! darkness itself will cover the earth, and
thick gloom the national groups". (Isaiah 60:2). Only then will the nations
"certainly go to your light, and kings to the brightness of your shining forth"
(Isaiah 60:3) to
heavenly "Jerusalem" the spiritual people of God (Isaiah 60:1) who were once
struck with God's indignation*. (Isaiah 60:10).
Initially, these resources will come from those of Midian, Ephah, Sheba, Kedar
and Nebaioth (modern-day Jordan and Saudi Arabia today). (Isaiah 60:11).
As for Ethiopians schooled in "Manasseh"-type evil, they are
having their resources and boundaries removed now, by
the "four families" commissioned by God: Deadly plague, sword, famine,
and captivity. (Jer
13:3. 15:2,3).
The desolation of Northeast Africa by drought and famine (Isaiah 18:1-7) is
beginning to adversely affect the economies of
surrounding lands. Similar economic reversals will
increase and cause greater social unrest and political "darkness" worldwide.
"For any nation and any kingdom that will not serve you will perish; and
the nations themselves will without fail come to devastation." (Isaiah 60:12).
