We’re all sure doomsday’s coming; I’m not talking about just you and I, I’m talking everyone, even the unbeliever is living in expectation of Judgement day. There is such a thing as ‘apocalypse anxiety’ and I don’t want you to get it, it’s when we become so hardened by endless disastrous predictions that we stop paying attention to them.
Now is the time to embrace the healing Word in this transforming Sukkoth series.
Joel 2:1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the יהוה cometh, for it is nigh at hand; A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness.
Rev: 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
There is such a thing as ‘apocalypse anxiety’ and I don’t want you to get it…
Joel 2:31The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of יהוה come. 32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the יהוה shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as hath said יהוה, and in the remnant whom יהוה shall call.
Men were predicting the end of all things all the way back when John penned the apocalyptic Book of Revelation.
With information overload at our fingertips we’re sure we’re doomed and human civilization is going to end any day now and ‘the day of the Lord’ is nigh!
Hag 2:5 According to the word thatI covenantedwith you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.BoC reality.6 For thus saith יהוהof hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith יהוה Tzeva.8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith Tzeva. Plundering the heathen as they succumb to apocalypse anxiety! 9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith יהוה Tzeva: and in this place will I give peace, saith יהוה Tzeva.
The expression ‘the day of the Lord’ is an inclusive term which can encompass the entire period that will end this age and inaugurate the age to come.
It’s a day of judgment for the wicked but I’ve come to realize it’s a day of redemption for me and for you!
Ps. 37:1 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
The word apocalypse didn’t always mean ‘the end of the world’, it’s just the Greek for ‘revelation’ and was used to describe the visions of biblical doomsday prophets like John.
The wicked know: Job 20:5 That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?
Job 21:30 That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.
…fearful about the end of the world in a more diverse range of ways than ever before.
The Psalmist tells us that, Ps. 10:2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
Ecc 8:13 it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow;
Isa 3:11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. Isa 57:20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
How will the millennials’s manage to avoid annihilation in the coming decades, they’ve fallen for global warming and believe our planet’s oceans will be boiled off…
Ps. 92.7 when the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
The university brainwashed pseudo-scientific doom-mongers who warn of the apocalyptic potential of climate change being an existential threat.
We have a 100% consensus…Of course climate changes!
Anthropomorphizing “Mother Earth” believing the planet is angry at our destructive ways and will punish us for causing great harm to her.
Rom 1:25 They changed the truth of יהוה into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Apocalypticism manifest as fatalism on the secular left…
Lk 1:80…Wax strong in spirit.
Rom 12:11 Do not be lagging in zeal; be fervent in spirit. Keep serving the master.
2 Tim. 1:7 For Elohim hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Apocalyptic fears and fantasies, whether explicitly religious or supposedly secular, are at least partially rooted in existential concerns about meaning in life.
Jer 4:23 beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of יהוה , and by his fierce anger. For thus hath יהוה said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end. For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.
Millennial apocalyptic visions offer a path to immortality through AI and VR.
1 Pet 5:6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.
Prov 12:25 Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.
It’s mainstream now even in the secular realm, sure it manifests differently, in fact I’d say it’s manifestation is fatalistic because there is no faith, hope and charity like I said!
Isa 13:10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. Isa 13:11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
Anti-natalism…
Because like Esau they sold their heritage and gained a world of anxiety in it’s place.
Ps. 127.3 children are an heritage of יהוה : and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Isa 34:4 And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.
Isa 34:5 For my sword shall be bathed in heaven.
Rev 6:5 And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, Go. And I saw, and behold, a black horse; and he that sat thereon had a balance in his hand. Rev 6:6 And I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, A measure of wheat for a denarius, and three measures of barley for a denaurius; and the oil and the wine hurt thou not. Rev 6:7 And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, Go. Rev 6:8 And I saw, and behold, a green horse: and he that sat upon him, his name was Death; and Hades followed with him. And there was given unto them authority over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with famine, and with death, and by the wild beasts of the earth.
Don’t get apocalypse anxiety now, just when leftwing secular fundamentalist apocalyptism is becoming mainstream and the panic’s on!
