The fulfillment of the Feast of Trumpets marks a pivotal point in the history of God’s plan and purpose for bringing sons and daughters to glory in His kingdom and family. On one side of this day is gloom and doom and on the other side the return of Jesus Christ the resurrection and change of the saints. God and Christ are going to judge the world and usher in peace for all of humankind if they choose to turn to him in heartfelt repentance. Judgment is not on the house of God and we should personally and collectively prepare for the fulfillment of this great day.
