Days of Reckoning

Wars and rumors of war

A multitude of horrors and gore

rights and wrongs guns and bombs

nation rises against nation

kingdom against kingdom.

Famines and earthquakes

floods and pestilence

betrayals and persecutions

False Messiahs

and false prophets

perform great signs

and wonders in deceit

Faith abandoned

consciences seared

to follow deceiving spirits

and things taught by demons,

Wickedness marching

on love grown cold

love gone awry

against God and people,

Many bearing a form of godliness

but denying its power.

About the day or hour

no one knows

not the angels in heaven

or the Son

but only the Father.

Do not be anxious

and do not worry

do not shrink back,

it is folly

for the days of trouble come upon you

they will be shortened

for the sake of the elect

It’s the promise of the Son.

When the deceivers say

‘there he is!’

believe it not

receive them not,

As the lightning in the east is seen the west

so will the coming of the Son of Man manifest.

Hold fast to the hope you profess

He is faithful

who gave the promises

Spur one another to love and good deeds

encourage each other when you meet

even more as the Day approaches

In just a little while

He who is coming will come

and will not delay.

(Matthew 24, 1 Timothy 4:1-5, 2Timothy 3:1-9, Hebrews 10:23-25, 35-39)
