New York City and the Day of the LORD
The after effects of Hurricane Sandy have left New York City in a horrific panic and disastrous state. There has been for its inhabitants no power, no food, no gas, no heat and no civil order for these last few days and the frustrated inhabitants of New York City are at the breaking point. Lawlessness is making it way throughout the city as a pack of wolves and looting, violence and anarchy are raising their godless head as frustrated citizens and lawless individuals react to the lack of their daily comforts. The national news outlets throughout America have been reporting on all of this commotion in New York City 24/7 making Americans fully aware of New York’s dilemma and state. Indeed this aftermath is a teachable moment for Americans, for these very things will very shortly beEXPONENTIALLY MAGNIFIED and engulf our entire world (Rev. 6-19). What then my dear friend? If such a little matter as Sandy has thrown the entire New York City region out of kilter what will be then when the Day of the Lord is brought to full throttle (Rev. 6-19). The attitude among the majority of Americans is that these things cannot and will not ever happen to us. We as American’s today are absolutely spoiled by the daily benefits and comforts that our technological age has afforded to us. From the rich to the poor, to the lazy to the vigorous all benefit from our 21 century modern luxuries and technological age and when they are removed the worst in people comes out along with the reality that we are very ill prepared for the simplest of disasters (Gal. 5:19-21).
If such a little matter as Sandy has thrown the entire New York City region out of kilter what will be then when the Day of the Lord is brought to full throttle.
There is nothing like a POWERFUL earthquake or VIOLENT storm to bring forth and reveal the heart of man(Jer.17:9, John 3:19-21, Rom. 7:18-25, Gal. 5:19-21), the reality of man’s helpless estate (Job 14:2, Psalm 144:4, Isa. 2:22, 40:17) and smash any self imposed and manufactured delusions that we as Adam’s fallen race are sufficient and lords of our own personal destiny in this lost and fallen sin ravished world (Rom.1:18-32, 5:12-21). Tribulation (aka. great pressure and squeezing) ALWAYS manifests the godless heart of man and brings out its worst in people (Gal.5:19-21). It is only in rare occasions that the heart of man (in such dire conditions) is contained and suppressed. The first word or phrase that usually comes out of the heart of the afflicted is the blasphemous use of the ETERNAL GLORIOUS NAME of the LORD of glory. Instead of looking to the Almighty for aid and deliverance, fallen man ALWAYS reverts inwardly (subjectively) and rages against the very One Who can deliver and bring aid (Jer. 3:22-25).
Such events as Hurricane Sandy are to be wake-up calls to us to show us how absolutely futile, vain and temporal we as human beings are to deal with the ravishing effects of this fallen world and to the magnificent power of nature's raging climate wars and geological movements (Psalm 144:4). These events should get us to wake up out of our delusional slumber to the REALITY that we truly are finite and EXPONENTIALLY limited as human beings to survive in this world without our ETERNAL Creator and Redeemer (John 1:1-5, Heb. 1:1-4).

My friends, magnify this event (Sandy) globally and then multiply the after effects EXPONENTIALLY and then you will just get a taste of what the Day of the Lord, the Day of Almighty God’s wrath will be like upon ALL the inhabitants of the world (Rev. 6-19). It will be events like these that will strip mankind from all of their godless delusions about time and ETERNITY, right and wrong, lawlessness and RIGHTEOUSNESS and bring them face to face with the ETERNAL REALITIES of their temporal fallen estate and ETERNAL destinies. Almighty God in His wrath will be also merciful upon mankind to get them to deal with REALITY and their absolute desperate need for His RIGHTEOUS Savior and propitiation for the transgressions of the entire world, but very few will open their eyes to ETERNITY’S reality and choose rather to perish FOREVER in their transgressions and sins (John 3:16-17, 2 Thess.2:10-12, 1 John 2:2,4:10, Rev. 9:20-21, 14:6, 16:9-11, 20:11-15). How HORRIFICALLY TRAGIC!
New York City’s Future
New York City (as all other cities) in the future will fall to FAR GREATER horrific devastation then that of Hurricane Sandy. She will fall from the godless lawlessness of its inhabitants and from the EXPONENTIAL horrific consequences of the Seal, Bowl and Vial judgments of Almighty God the Son (the Lamb) – Rev. 6-19). Her final death knell will be the last Vial judgment of Almighty God, which will be an EXPONENTIAL global earthquake that will shake the entire earth beyond all comprehension (Isa. 24, Hag. 2:6, Rev. 16:17-21). So violent is this final global earthquake that the GREAT city of Babylon and ALL of man’s metropolitan cities (including New York City ) will fall and become nothing but massive buried ruins and tsunami wastelands (Rev.16:19-20). So it will be just before Almighty God the Son’s return from HEAVEN’S GLORY, when at this time He will crush the anti Christ’s armies at Armageddon and then establish His earthly Kingdom reign FOREVERMORE in RIGHTEOUSNESS (Dan. 2:44-45, 7:13-14, Rev. 19:11-21). Amen! Amen!
So violent is this final global earthquake that the GREAT city of Babylon and ALL of man’s metropolitan cities (including New York City ) will fall and become nothing but massive buried ruins and tsunami wastelands.
The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
