Indeed, the time is NOW to seek the LORD and beg for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to prepare.
Wickedness has increased to very sordid heights, all God's laws are being trampled.
Sodom and Gomorrah were given as a warning illustrating what happens when wickedness mocks God's ways.
When we see Los Angeles in flames, Hollywood's mansions turning to dust, is this saying something?
?I am bidden to declare the message that cities full of transgression, and sinful in the extreme, will be destroyed by earthquakes, by fire, by flood. All the world will be warned that there is a God who will display His authority as God. His unseen agencies will cause destruction, devastation, and death. All the accumulated riches will be as nothingness. Notwithstanding the scientific care with which men safeguard buildings from destruction, one touch of the great and rightful Ruler will bring to nothingness the idolatrous possessions that have been laid up in a sightly and magnificent display. The devices of men will come to naught.?Manuscript Releases, vol. 21, p. 66-67
When God's restraining hand is removed, the destroyer begins his work. Then in our cities the greatest calamities will come.--3MR 314 (1897).
O that God?s people had a sense of the impending destruction of
thousands of cities, now almost given to idolatry! . . .
I saw an immense ball of fire falling among some beautiful mansions, causing their instant destruction. I heard someone say, ?We knew that the judgments of God were coming upon the earth, but we did not know that they would come so soon.? Others said, ?You knew? Why then did you not tell us? We did not know.? On every side I heard such words spoken. . . . {OFC 318.1}
The time is near when large cities will be swept away, and all should be warned of these coming judgments. But who is giving to the accomplishment of this work the wholehearted service that God requires? . . . {Ev 29.2}
