"And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him" - Jude 14,15

We have no record in the Old Testament of this prophecy, but he Holy Spirit preserved it and has given it to us through Jude in order that it may speak to all who reverence the Word of God today. The prophecies as to the Lords coming in judgment will be as literally fulfilled, and as certainly, as were those that referred to His first coming in grace. No one is ready for His second advent who has not availed himself of the redemption which He has wrought out when He appeared the first time to settle the sin question. All others may well tremble at the thought of His imminent return. - H. A. Ironside

When the holy have gone to the regions of peace, To dwell in the mansions above

When their harmony wakes, in the fullness of bliss, Their song to the Savior they love.

Say, O sinner, that livest at rest and secure, Who fearest no trouble to come;

Can thy spirit the swellings of sorrow endure, Or bear the impenitent's doom?
