Rev. 19:19b



19 And [kai] I saw [eido] the beast [therion], and [kai] the kings [basileus] of the earth [ge], and [kai] their [autos] armies [strateuma], gathered together [sunago] to make [poieo] war [polemos] against [meta] him that sat [kathemai] on [epi] the horse [hippos], and [kai] against [meta] his [autos] army [strateuma].     KJV-Interlinear

 

 

19 And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war against Him who sat upon the horse, and against His army.     NASB



Just as it is today, and any day of history for that matter, the popular public statement of the time is ‘Peace, peace.’   So, it will be in that future time at the end of the Tribulation.  People will still be saying ‘Peace, peace.’  And, the facts all indicate that there is no peace.  Only spiritually negative people do not see the truth of life.


Jer. 6:14

14 ‘And they have healed the brokenness of My people superficially, Saying, 'Peace, peace,' But there is no peace.     NASB


By the time of the end of the Tribulation, the world will have undergone six years, plus, of the most horrible historical disasters and troubles that it has ever experienced in all of human history.  Yet people will use superficial rhetoric to convince each other that peace is imminent, rather than disaster.


This is a typical ploy of the news media, which is even supported by the comments of celebrities, professors, politicians, and anyone else who wants to get their face in the limelight of publicity.  Even common folks use this tactic in gossip in order to gain the attentions of people.   


Why?  Because their comments are arbitrary, ambiguous, and it is difficult for anyone to come back on them for their random or malicious comments.  When a target is in view, gossips will use lies in order to get them into trouble.  Politicians, news media types, even celebrities are only interested in getting themselves in the limelight, causing trouble for those to whom they are directing their criticisms.  Their objective?  To cause the downfall of their opponents or their enemies, however you wish to describe them.


No one seriously thinks that there are any repercussions (to themselves) resulting from their loose comments. Their objective certainly is intended to bring damage to their opponents.  This is a common tactic in politics as well as social gossip.  Say anything, do anything in order to defeat your opponent, cause them harm, or get them out of power.


If the comments are negative enough, and continue long enough, then the wear and tear on the general public will bring the desired results.  At least, this is what spiritually negative people think.  And, if the general public becomes spiritually negative, then that is exactly what will occur.  Stupid people follow stupid ideas.


Spiritually negative people say what people want to hear, regardless of the facts.  And, when truth is attacked in this way, then trouble will come along sooner or later and get everyone.


It is true in our current day, and it will certainly be true in the Tribulation.


For six years, storms, famine, crime, disasters of nature, mini wars and so forth will kill off over half of the world’s population.


If that were all to happen today (assuming that two billion leave at the rapture), then the four and a half billion people left will die off at a rate of over one million people per day, every day, for six years (4.5 billion divided two (to get half of the population), divided by six years, divided by 365 days).


If you thought that, the disaster of that tsunami of a couple of years ago was dramatic (where over 200,000 people died), then increase that loss of life by five times, in a disaster occurring everyday for six years in a row.


And, if all of this does not happen for another hundred years, and the population left behind after the Rapture is perhaps fifty billion or more, then you can see that the loss of life will be beyond staggering.  Even ten times greater than the above calculation with well over ten million people dying everyday.


Wouldn’t someone begin to wonder whether the world was cursed? 


And, we know that these disasters will not occur on a daily basis, so the loss of life in fewer disasters, will be staggering.


Yet, despite all of this, ‘Peace, peace,’ will be the popular cry.  This is the strong delusion resulting from the rejection of truth.


Simple gossip, simple political rhetoric, simple indifference toward truth, does have repercussions.  For you the individual, your spiritual life is destroyed, along with your future.  For the world, oil research is prevented, nuclear power research is prevented, crime punishment is softened, terrorist pursuit is frowned upon, and so on and so forth.   The world eventually suffers for all of these policies.


Masses of people demonstrate their collective spiritual strength or weakness in elections, or in objective opinion polls.


When truth is rejected then public opinions, public policies, public decisions and actions fail miserably.  Spiritually depleted people pursue whatever is popular, and the media, or whatever the publicity medium happens to be, determines what is popular.  People react or over react to the news of the day.


‘Peace, peace.’  That is the popular cry today.  A simple phrase used today for not wanting to get involved or for avoiding or preventing some activity.  But, in the future, this phrase will be used in a more dramatic fashion as masses of peoples refuse to see the truth, and simultaneously gather together for the most violent conflict ever.
