“Doom! Doom! Doom to everyone left on earth! There are three more Angels about to blow their trumpets. Doom is on its way!”
Sheesh! talk about a downer! This one is REALLY dark and depressing. The first time through it took me aback. But, after our conversations over the last couple of days, I'm trying to look at it differently. This is a display of power and complete dominance. This is the Christ we serve. To think that he came to us the first time being completely vulnerable, weak, and to serve.....and this time exactly the opposite. Its crazy to think about.
He is in control.
You want to be on his side.
"keep the porch lights on and be ready, you don't know when the master is going to return"....i'm paraphrasing here, but I remember reading that verse, and it certainly applies here.

Well I like your take, I never got past the doom part! I thought maybe you were quoting Motel 6 at the end. He brought us into this world and he can take is out--he has all the power.
