Most people around today can’t see the darkness through the gloom, <br />But this very darkness is one sign that The Lord is coming back soon. <br /> <br />Paul spoke of a time when this very evil would get worse and worse, <br />But, before God judges this evil, Christ will remove His Church first. <br /> <br />For the wrath of God has been revealed against all this Godlessness, <br />A Day of Judgment against all who suppress the Truth by wickedness. <br /> <br />But Christ gave many promises to all, who believe and walk His path, <br />One of those is that The Church has not been saved to suffer wrath. <br /> <br />For Christ gave Himself for all men to redeem us from all wickedness, <br />His Grace has appeared to all and helps us say No to all Godlessness. <br /> <br />As man, apart from Christ, is destined to face Judgment for his sin, <br />Christ will come again with Salvation for all those waiting for Him. <br /> <br />Paul spoke of a day, that when it comes, for many will be a mystery, <br />A day when The Lord Himself will change our mortal into immortality. <br /> <br />When in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, The Last Trumpet sounds, <br />We in The Church who are still alive will be caught up in the clouds. <br /> <br />After The Church is caught up together to be forever with The Lord, <br />God’s Righteous Judgment, for those who remain, will be at the door, <br /> <br />As the darkness around us gets darker there’s really no need to fear, <br />For as a Child of God, when that Trumpet sounds we’ll be otta here. <br /> <br />(Copyright © 05/2002)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-that-trumpet-sounds/
