Kings, rulers, presidents, politicians, and the wealthy influential men and women parade around all puffed up thinking they have all the answers, but their actions just make things worse for those under them. Their ways are self serving, and they do only what brings glory to themselves.. They do not honor the true God, nor do they give him the glory. People given over to their foolish ways are blinded to the truth of God’s Word and have fallen into all kinds of sinful living. They do not worship God because they have chosen to follow the false philosophies and teachings of the world. People have turned from the moral teaching of God. His perfect plan for the marriage bed has been destroyed in the lives of many. His perfect plan for the family has been redefined by those who disobey his commands. Sexual immorality is becoming so common that few are embarrassed by its bold presentation in the media and other outlets. Despite the seemingly hopeless plight of this world there is hope for those who have remained true the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings, Jesus our Savior.
Please read thes following verses which describe what is going to hapoen to those who have followed their own way and to those of us who have chosen to follow Jesus.
And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed (saved) people for God from every tribe, language and people and nation, and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on earth. Revelation 5:9-10
When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had born. They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you judge and avenge our blood on these who dwell on earth?” They were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers should be complete, who were killed as they themselves had been killed. Revelation 6:9-10
And he said to me , “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb (Jesus). Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence...For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will shepherd them, and he will guide them to springs of living water, and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes. Revelation 7:14-17
And he said with a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgement has come and worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea, and the springs of water.” Revelation 14:7
For all the nation’s have drunk the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich from the power of her luxurious living. Revelation 18: 3
They will wage war against the Lamb (Jesus), but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings - and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers, (Those of us who have been redeemed by the Jesus) Revelation 17:14
I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he wages war. His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has the name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Revelation 19:11-13, 15-16
Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army. But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. The rest were killed with the sword coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh. Revelation 19:19-21
