Isaiah 24:1-3


Isaiah 24:1-3

Isaiah not only tells of fate of Israel, Judah, Assyria and Babylon. Isaiah also tells of the fate of the world. Before the 1940’s we had no idea of global destruction. Now there is no end to the theories and movies about the end of the world. I was up late and came across a 60’s movie “Sea Quest” where a fire started in a ring above the earth. They had their little model submarine gliding through some producers fish tank to save the day. The result of all those predictions of doom is that the end of the world has been made the thing of nuts and quacks.

But the end is coming. It will not be the giant meteor, red sea sludge, global warming, or any other thing that will be the reason behind it. The destruction of earth will be at the hand of God and it will be because of the sinfulness of humans.

No one is exempt. Vs 2

            Every disaster movie has a way out.
            A scientist has a formula
            The government has a ship or a shelter
            NASA has a spaceship with oil rig workers to drill hole in the meteor
            Or a super strong person will weave their way through it.
            We may even get help from aliens
            King Richard shouts a horse a horse, psalm 33:17 a horse is a vain hope
            Matthew 24:36-42
            Rev 21:1

Salvation is available to everyone
            Read vs 2
            Matthew 24:40
            Romans 1:16 Jew and Gentile
            Gal 3:28
            White, black, Indian, Arab or Asian, all can be saved with a simple prayer
            Citizen of the year, good church people, gang member, and drug addict all can be saved.

What do we do?
            Prepare yourself. Make sure you have surrendered your life to Jesus
            Remember that what happens is only temporary.
           Tell others how they can be saved.

Will the end of the world come? Yes. It will come because of God’s judgment on the sinful human race. Will your end come? Yes, maybe soon, or perhaps a long time from now. But you have nothing to fear. This world is not fatal nor final. Romans 8:37-39
