Wig’s Word of God Today 11-23-2010
So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and cut the earth’s vintage. He threw it into the great wine press of God’s fury. Revelation 14:19
Revelation 14:14-19, Psalm 96:10, 11-12, 13 & Luke 21:5-11
The amazing symbolism of Revelation comes from so many parts of the Bible allowing one to visit history over and over again. God is promising there will be a gathering of the faithful in the final judgment (“Use Your sickle and reap the harvest, for the time to reap has come, because the earth’s harvest is fully ripe.” Revelation 14:15c) by living a life dedicated to God and His Son’s Truth. Similarly, God is promising He will use His judgment to execute His wrath in the symbols of cutting the vines and throwing them into the press God’s fury. “Use your sharp sickle and cut the clusters from the earth’s vines, for its grapes are ripe.” So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and cut the earth’s vintage. He threw it into the great wine press of God’s fury.” The wrath of God may not frighten some of humanity but it is something He will execute so to speak to those who do not follow His Commandments. In Deuteronomy 28:15, God describes a wrath of curses that will offer His judgment to the unfaithful, “But if you do not hearken to the voice of the LORD, your God, and are not careful to observe all His commandments which I enjoin on you today, all these curses shall come upon you and overwhelm you.” As Christians, it is our duty to live a life of Christ to help those escape the fires of hell. Avoid the “Eternal Fire” as Christ described in the Gospel of Matthew but living a life of faith, hope, charity and love. Be guided by His Truth every waking moment so you too can live in an Eternal Kingdom with all the faithful.
Jesus warns us time and time again not to be fooled by false prophets who create smokescreens of satisfaction in lies and false hope. “See that you not be deceived, for many will come in My Name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and ‘The time has come.’ Do not follow them!” Luke 21:8 Through all of these lies and false hope will arise wars and troubles for mankind, but Christ reminds us not to be afraid and to live your life in His Truth for even if they kill you because of your love of Christ, you will live in an Eternal Joy with all the faithful in heaven. I’ve watched a man take his last breath in this world before when my stepfather passed away some years ago. As he lay in that Hospice room with my mother by his side, I prayed God would take him to His Kingdom in Heaven and after he breathed his last breath, I prayed God would do as I asked even though he had lived a life of hate and ugliness towards different people. But I will never know if he joined the faithful through Christ’s forgiveness or if he’s has been eternally damned to fire, all I know is I want my life to represent a life of following His Ways to accomplish His New Covenant of faith, hope, charity and love. “The Lord is good and His love endures forever.” Psalm 100:5
And so we pray: My Lord and My God, today we finish our ninth day of praying for peace and healing for Chris Santello. This Novena of prayers for him will continue in our prayer life as I pray for all souls who seek Your Son’s Truth and guidance as Chris does. Grant us all the faith to live a life free from worries where our trust in Your Promise lasts forever more. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
His Truth Will Provide Your Cover
A white cloud He does sit
Gold Crown adorning His Truth
A ripe harvest He will grip
Signs of wonder follow as proof
A cluster of those who live in sin
Will be harvested and thrown in fire
The Fury of God you can trust
His judgment carried out for many a liar
He will come and judge the earth
Not a soul will escape His sentence
Either you will live Eternally free in Heaven
His justice you will witness causing your repentance
Not a stone survived from the Temple
He foretold each will topple on another
False prophets will lose control
His Truth will provide your cover
