God's Plan for His Creation

The reality is that the Bible is the only reliable guide that we have, discount it and you are in the mire of guesswork and conjecture. The Bible gives us the right way to live and does have a lot of prophecy, some accurately fulfilled, some still future. The prophet Daniel 12:9-10, says that some will be kept secret and sealed till the end time, but those who seek the truth and study the Word will understand. Isaiah prophesied about 75 generations ago; Isaiah 24:1 Be warned, the Lord is about to lay waste to the earth, to devastate it and scatter its inhabitants. By now, perhaps 1 billion people will have read this prophesy and it never happened to them. Why should we think it could happen to this generation? As 2012 moves along, there are several possibilities that could bring about a worldwide disaster: a nuke war, a comet strike, earthquakes, volcanoes, a CME, etc. Everyone can see that there will soon have to be some kind of severe shakeup to sort out the world’s problems. Governments are enacting laws and building shelters, etc in preparation. With Bible prophesy, I have found that it is necessary to clear the mind of humanistic ideas and look at it from what God’s purpose might be. 1/ God created everything 2/ He does have a plan for His creation 3/ That plan seems to be the formation of a group of beings like Himself, who freely choose to love and serve Him. 4/ Those who refuse to acknowledge Him, may face destruction. God’s plan involved choosing one righteous man [Abraham] and using his descendants to be a nation that would be ‘a light to the nations’, showing everyone the right way to live. Unfortunately, the Israelites did not do this and they divided into two nations, who both went into exile from the Holy Land. The return of Judah has started, still to be completed, but Israel is at present still scattered among the nations. When their decreed exile punishment is completed at the end of this year, as we are told in Ezekiel 4:4-5 and Leviticus 26:18, then all the twelve tribes will be able to return to their heritage. The Lord’s Holy Land, Deut. 11:12 must be cleared and cleansed; at the first Exodus the people were tasked to do that, Deut. 6:19 but they failed to complete the job and the remaining inhabitants induced the Israelites into idolatry. This time, the Lord Himself will punish His enemies and clear all the area promised to the Patriarchs. 2 Chronicles 7:14, Ezekiel 20:47-48 and the more than 100 prophesies that describe the forthcoming Lord’s Day of vengeance and wrath, a worldwide punishment by fire, fulfilling Isaiah 24:1-23 Then, at last the Lord’s righteous people will live in the Land, being all that He originally planned for them, but the rest of the world – slowly recovering from this terrible fire judgement, will form a One World government.
