A Chariot of Fire

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from A Chariot of Fire: The Cars in Prophecy and History, With the Wonders of Rapid Traveling and Significance of the Modern Railway System The Lord hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm and the clouds are the dust of His feet (Nah. 1: 3.) He whose car the winds are and the clouds The dust that waits upon His sultry march, When sin hath moved Him and His wrath is hot, Shall visit earth in mercy, shall descend Propitious in His chariot. Cowper's Task. 1 It is obvious that the poet, in thus describing our Lord's return from heaven, not only drew on the sentiment quoted above from the inspired prophet, but, as can be seen, well nigh makes use of the prophet's words. Evidently the whole trend of this first chapter is adventual. Not alone temporal judgment is intended in the severe words, nor temporary deliverance meant in the glowing promises. On the contrary, verses 3 and 5 open up Advent, and bring the final conflagration. Very solemnly and firmly does Rev. Dr. Gill relate these to "The last day when the world and all the wicked inhabitants of it will be burnt up, as in 2 Pet. 3: 10." (Com.) Verses 7, 9, 12 are, as Jerome wrote, couched in terms of comfort for the church of Christ, and are too strong and far reaching to indicate only a temporal deliverance from Senacherib and Assyria, - for affliction did often rise up upon Israel in subsequent years.
