AT present the gospel trumpet is resounding through the world, calling all men to repent and to turn to Christ who died for our sins and lives to save all who confide in Him.
But the day is coming when, as in the case of Jericho of old, the trumpets of judgment will sound, proclaiming the end and doom of this present evil world, which has been arrayed for so long in fierce conflict against God and His saints.
When those trumpets sound the world will crumble, and will soon be superseded by an entirely new order when righteousness will cover the earth as the waters cover the great deep.
As we see these things beginning to come to pass, our hearts will be kept in peace if we walk with God and remember that all has been foretold and that He is working in all things according to His foreknown plan!
“Hark! how the gospel trumpet sounds,
As through the world the echo bounds,
Proclaiming to a ruin’d race,
That through the riches of His grace,
Sinners may see the Saviour’s face,
In endless day.
And when, through grace, our course is run,
The battle fought, the vict’ry won,
Then crowns unfading we shall wear,
The glory of Thy kingdom share,
With Thee, our glorious Leader, there,
In endless day.”
