Sound of Trumpets

Dread or Joy

What do you see when you look around the world today? Turmoil, corruption, cover-ups, crime, immorality, perversion, violence.  Those of us in God's church are hungry for the reality of the Feast of Trumpets, when Christ's feet will touch the Mount of Olives.  We pray that God's Kingdom will come soon.  The world does not know these things, and they are going to dread the sound of the trumpets, but for those who know what the call heralds, it will bring great joy.
