Sound The Trumpet!
"In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last
trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will
be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed."
1 Corinthians 15: 52
Years ago, a strange phenomenon had residents of Hawaii
scratching their heads. It’s an occasional sound of a trumpet
that can’t be explained.
Some people speculated the eerie sounds are caused by tidal
waves, underground earthquakes, or shifting sand dunes. Some
people have called the sounds “unearthly.” A few people wonder
if the sounds come from extraterrestrial beings.
Who knows? Strange phenomena happen all the time. But one
thing we know for sure: One day the trumpet will sound, which
signals the return of Jesus Christ in the skies above our
planet.
The Bible says, “For the Lord Himself will descend from
heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and
with the trumpet of God” (1 Thessalonians 4:16). It’s
going
to be a trumpet loud enough to wake the dead!
Despite the chaos of the world around us, we can be
confident that Christ will return for us. We can almost
hear the trumpet sounding now!
"Human history, as we know it, will end with Your
loud command, with the voice of the archangel,
and with the blast of Your trumpet."
