It comes:
On
the proud and lofty.
As
a destruction
Cruel,
with wrath, anger and desolation
To
destroy sinners
As
a day of vengeance against His adversaries
As
a day of battle
It is near; at hand.
It will be a cloudy day.
I is the time of the
heathen.
It is great and terrible
and dreadful and notable.
It will be preceded by a
dark sun, bloody moon, and the coming of Elijah.
It will affect
multitudes.
It is a day of darkness.
It will cause mighty men
to cry.
It will come as a thief
in the night.

heavens will pass away with great noise, elements will melt with fervent heat,
the earth and the works therein will be burned up.
There will be a shaking of
the heavens and earth.
