A Call to Repentance

13 Put on sackcloth, O priests, and mourn;

wail, you who minister before the altar.

Come, spend the night in sackcloth,

you who minister before my God;

for the grain offerings and drink offerings

are withheld from the house of your God.

14 Declare a holy fast;

call a sacred assembly.

Summon the elders

and all who live in the land

to the house of the Lord your God,

and cry out to the Lord.



15 Alas for that day!

For the day of the Lord is near;

it will come like destruction from the Almighty. [fn5]



16 Has not the food been cut off

before our very eyes—

joy and gladness

from the house of our God?

17 The seeds are shriveled

beneath the clods. [fn6]

The storehouses are in ruins,

the granaries have been broken down,

for the grain has dried up.

18 How the cattle moan!

The herds mill about

because they have no pasture;

even the flocks of sheep are suffering.



19 To you, O Lord, I call,

for fire has devoured the open pastures

and flames have burned up all the trees of the field.

20 Even the wild animals pant for you;

the streams of water have dried up

and fire has devoured the open pastures.

The Earth is reserved to be destroyed by fire. The tribulation to come, we are told that if The Christ does not come,
all life on Earth would perish.

ARMAGEDDON gathers all the nations to battle against Yashua.

Nuclear war is described clearly in Zech 14 .

Last year the world spent 60 billion dollars on weapons.

The old testament is full of future events. Prophecy!!
 
i dont think the earth is destroyed totally but it gets a make over.

Jasher said'
How did you come to that conclusion?

E'

Zec 14:12 ¶ And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

Let us examine the type of plague that could cause a body to react to fire or something that burns hotter than fire,
it says there flesh shall consume away while they are standing = a heat so intense it dissolves the flesh instantly before the body can fall , that is fast, next the eyes dissolve instantly in the in tense heat next the tongue which is inside the mouth protected, burns instantly!!

In a normal cremation with a very hot flame it takes three hours to burn the body so the flame could never
dissolve the flesh instantly so that is why I think in my opinion IMO it is a perfect way for an ancient man to describe nuclear war!

To be fair you must read all of Zech 14 the whole chapter to get the picture in verse one it describes ARMAGEDDON
when all nations attack Israel, in the LAST DAYS.

[/FONT]This plague happens after the establishment of the kingdom on all who refuse to come up to Israel to celebrate the feast. So this is plague, not a reaction to a nuclear detonation. Unless you are saying that Jesus will be launching nuclear weapons at them during the 1000 years?? As if Jesus would need any such weapons.

Zech does state that fire will burn up much Just as the Book of Revelation mentions the same thing. But it is not a man made happening caused by mans nuclear weapons. Rather it is a falling mountain being cast into the sea that causes this destruction. A Meteor. Not nukes.


All Praise The Ancient Of Days
 
And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:

Thats it, strategic arrows!
