The prophecies and the current events unfolding before us that are fulfilling them are clear to those of us who have been studying our Bibles. Unfortunately, most of the world is ignorant of the connection. Some just don’t know the prophecies exist and the ones who have read them don’t take them seriously. That the secular world remains in this ignorance is understandable. That the “modern church” does is inexcusable.

Here is what the notable prophet said about the Israelite “watchmen” of his own time:

Ezekiel {3:17} Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. {3:18} When I say unto the wicked,
Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked [man] shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. {3:19} Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor
from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

There is no reason to think this is not applicable to modern-day “Watchmen” and it seems very clear that most of them fall into the first category.

Though God has with great patience and held back the destructive forces surrounding us at all levels, giving clear warnings that they were coming across the centuries, this is a situation that the Bible tells us cannot go on indefinitely.

The human race will have to be called to account. Evil cannot be allowed to go on unchecked and unpunished. It looks like that day is just up ahead, itself just as unseen and unknown to most of humanity as all those warnings it has been given for so long.
