Gulf Oil Spill – What’s next?
The Gulf Oil spill has clearly been a catastrophe, written about in my previous blog. So, what’s next? Can the Bible help us to see what’s next following this disaster? It has already been suggested that the oil spill which looks very much like dead man’s blood could be the second bowl of God’s wrath poured out upon the world during the Great Tribulation. The Bible says, “The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it turned into blood like that of a dead man, and every living thing in the sea died” (Revelation 16:3). If this is the case then the next bowls of God’s wrath should soon follow in sequence allowing us to see His plan to awaken the world of its outrageous sin and need for repentance. The sequence will shock even the doubters amongst us and hopefully encourage them to read the entire Revelation for themselves.
Again, as already noted in my previous blog, this oil spill will eventually find its way into our great rivers and springs of water. It has just been reported that oil has seeped into Lake Pontchartrain and suspected to be in the rain soaking most of the gulf coast and central Texas. It is not a far reach to imagine that this oil can also get into the water table, thus polluting our drinking water and causing untold health risk. The Bible says, “The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say: ‘You are just in these judgments, you who are and who were, the Holy One, because you have so judged; for they have shed the blood of your saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink as they deserve” (Revelation 16:4-6). Now that I have your attention, what is the next bowl of God’s wrath being poured upon the earth?
“The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire. They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but refused to repent and glorify Him” (Revelation 16:8). The Eastern part of the United States has been experiencing a record setting heat wave these past few days, but I am afraid this is only the beginning. I am sure scientists and climatologists will attempt to explain this a way as they do Global Warming, but in a very short time they will be convinced that this is beyond explanation as scores of the population are rushed to emergency rooms or found dead. Recent medical studies have shown that humans can only survive a limited number of hours in intense heat before dehydration sets in and brain cells begin to die leading to death. Friends, this is only the first of July and what lies ahead will paralyze this nation (perhaps the world) and lead directly into the next bowl of God’s wrath.
“The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. Men gnawed their tongues in agony and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but refused to repent of what they had done” (Revelation 16:10). It does not take much imagination to discern what happens next. As the heat index rises it will put an unbelievable strain on an already over extended electric grids which are in desperate need of upgrading. I recently completed a study on these aging electric grids and was shocked to realize that with the exception of Texas, there are only two electric grids in the United States, one for the Western part and one for the Eastern part of the United States. It would not take much strain from one portion of either of these two grids to cause a cascade affect putting most of the United States in total darkness. Imagine if you will, the horror if all computers immediately went off line, along with air conditioners, refrigerators, and needed hospital equipment with people left sitting in the dark. This in itself would be a disaster of a biblical proportion. If we added to this a spiritual darkness it would be devastating with unchecked immorality, complete anarchy, and mass hysteria.
Now what follows are the last two bowels of God’s wrath. Let me suggest that you go to your Bible and read them for yourself and if you would like a fuller explanation then you can read my book, “Final Warning, because the hour of His Judgment has come.” Either way, my friends, it is time to prepare for the Great Tribulation by coming to the truth, trusting in Jesus Christ alone, and remaining faithful to Him. I implore every Christian to pray that they are prepared to meet Christ at His magnificent return to punish the evil doer and visibly rapture in Church in glory.

Before we ask that question, why is Haiti suffering, our hearts first cry out for all the pain and anguish of the Haitian people. We can only imagine the great fear in the hearts of the Haitian people as they face an uncertain future where death and destruction may escalate in the coming months. There is already fear of anarchy as lawless thugs begin to roam the inner streets with machine guns and machetes. As believers in Christ compassion would lead us to do everything we can to relieve their untold suffering. It might be giving to our local church to fund a relief effort. It might be going our self or sending others to help in the relief effort. But as true Christians we would also be led through the Holy Spirit to help them understand what is happening in the world and help them make an appropriate response to the mercy of God.
I am devoted to podcasting the truth and helping Christians to stand firm in the last days. In a world that has rejected absolute truth and where everyone’s opinion is just as valid as the next we need to seek guidance from God’s unchangeable Word.
If you are drawn to this blog then apparently you are not unaware of the prediction that the world is supposed to end on 12-21-2012. After doing considerable research on this prediction I find that my own Biblical convictions concerning the end time has not changed. Having said that, I am still amazed at the coincidences that have surfaced during my research, not to mention the many other calamities slated to happen in the year 2012. So what is the Christian to think? Should we be concerned about this exact date setting for the end of the world? I would answer emphatically no! Based on God’s Holy Word to us, Christ said, “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” (Mat. 24:36) But even this holy Word does not negate the fact that the whole world may be aware of the season, but still harden their heart toward the one true God who can save them from eternal damnation.
