Ready?

Isaiah 2:17-21
(17) And the haughtiness of man shall be humbled, and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
(18) And the idols shall utterly pass away.
(19) And people shall enter the caves of the rocks and the holes of the ground, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to terrify the earth.
(20) In that day mankind will cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which they made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats,
(21) to enter the caverns of the rocks and the clefts of the cliffs, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to terrify the earth.


There is going to be a day when there are no more atheists on earth. In fact, there won't even be any moderate deists. Everyone will know that Jesus is Lord, but it will be too late.

It's easy to focus on all the "God is love" concepts in Scripture without considering what His wrath will look like someday. Personally, this gives me great hope. I know that God will exact justice in all the places where it looks like there is none right now. He is going to clean up the world.

I just want to make sure I have a head start by living like I believe that this is going to happen.
