We rejoice in God's holy days so why does Amos 5:18 tell us not to desire the day of the lord? The answer is that we focus on the seventh trumpet. But there are six trumpets that proceed it as well as the seven last plagues that are poured out after Christ's return. In this sermon Mr. Smith shows us the first six trumpets are caused by mankind and why God must pour out the plagues. If God does not intervene mankind would destroy the world, but his intervention and what it will bring is the source of our rejoicing.
