On Thanksgiving Day 2006 I read in the news that a 25-million ton asteroid was hurtling through space at that very minute, and was scheduled to pass uncomfortably close to Earth in 2029. The call is going out from NASA for a hero who will, Hollywood-style, find a way to avert this disaster.
No, really, that was in the news!
And I read in my Bible that a great star-like mass "burning like a
torch" is scheduled to arrive here one day affecting one-third of our
water supply in such a way as to poison "many." Is there a match
here? There was a time when the Book of Revelation seemed so "far
out", but now we begin to see He meant exactly what He said.
One thing is certain. When God sends "Wormwood", the poison star
of Revelation 8:10-11, there will be no rescue by mankind. Mankind, minus the
remnant and the Kingdom, will be finished! When the rain of judgment begins to
fall here, it will not stop pouring until God has completed the task with a
fiery deluge far surpassing the watery one of 4500 years ago.
This judgment is not for true believers. We give thanks to God for His
creation and His new creation (that's us!), and the coming renewal of the
creation, the new heavens and the new earth. We've only just begun and there's
all of eternity to be thankful for.
As for Thanksgiving Day: It was a unique blessing that America had the
foresight to set aside a day for such a worthy cause as giving thanks. Oh that
more of His people will turn from football and feasting on days like that and other holidays, and turn to
thanking God for His great store of blessings and repenting of national and personal sin.
