THE DAY OF HIS PREPARATION
By Bertrand L. Comparet
The various Bible prophecies deal with many events, occurring
at different times. Some of these have been completely fulfilled in
the past. Others are on such a grand scale they seem to have a
double fulfillment, a partial fulfillment in the past and a greater one
in the future. Yet others deal only with events still in the future.
Which of these speak of our own times? The only ones still
awaiting fulfillment are those, which deal with the end of the
present age and the coming of the kingdom of Yahweh. Isaiah,
Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Nahum, Zechariah, Matthew, Mark, Luke
and Revelation, all contain major prophecies concerning our own
times.
These prophets make it clear that the present age will end in
terrific violence. Look about you and see why. Despite the good
intentions of the few, despite the general acceptance of Christianity
by the white nations of the world, yet the present world order is
satanic in its major outlines. Even the white Christian nations have
been infiltrated and corrupted by the anti Christians. To seek
coexistence with evil, to pray for peace on terms acceptable to
Satan, is to turn our backs on Yahshua, the only source of real
peace.
The coming attack by Russia under anti Christian leadership is
clearly foretold in the Bible. More than a century and a half ago,
when Russia was too weak to be a menace, Bible students
identified Russia as the great enemy in Ezekiel chapters 38 & 39.
When will this happen? The prophecies are not dated, but they
state warning signs that the time is at hand. One of these is given
by the prophet Nahum. In a strangely penetrating vision he says in
Nahum 2:1, "He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face:
keep the munitions, watch the way make thy loins strong, fortify
thy power mightily".
An enemy so powerful that he has shattered many nations now
confronts us. We must stockpile munitions to be ready to meet his
sudden attack. We must watch the way, send out our U‑2 airplanes
to watch every way they might attack us. Fortify our power
mightily, set up a ring of air and rocket bases from which to rain
destruction upon the attacker.
Our military experts warn us that we do not spend enough on
our defenses and they are certainly right. Why can't we spend
more? You know why, when you look at your income tax bills for
the last 50 years. We have already spent all that we have our
pockets are empty. We pay more taxes than all the rest of the free
world combined. Our national debt is greater than the combined
debts of all the rest of the world, where has it gone? Billions of it
have gone to strengthen the very enemies who now threaten war
against us. This also was prophesied; the future holds no secrets
from Yahweh. 2,600 years ago Nahum 2:2 recorded, "The emptiers
have emptied them out."
You know who the emptiers have been, those falsely calling
themselves liberal, when they were only liberal with other people's
money! Even this evil masquerade was prophesied. Isaiah 32:5
speaks of the time after this age has ended, when the kingdom of
Yahweh rules the world. Isaiah states, "The vile person shall no
more be called liberal".
This deliberate ruin of their own nation, to carry out a socialist
policy, is against the laws of Yahweh. Many prophets warned
against this. Ecclesiastes 12:5 states, "Give not thine honor to
another, nor the things that are profitable unto thee to a strange
nation. Give not to the ungodly: hold back thy bread and give it not
unto him, lest he overmaster thee thereby: else thou shalt receive
twice as much evil for all the good thou shalt have done unto him."
Deuteronomy 23:6 states, "Thou shalt not seek their peace nor
their prosperity, all thy days forever."
Your wages go down the rat holes of taxes and inflation. Truly as
the prophet said in Haggai 1:6, "He that earns wages, earns wages
to put into a bag with holes." How true!
When is the attack coming? Let's go on with Nahum 2:3‑4, "The
chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his
preparation." The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall jostle
one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like
torches, they shall run like the lightnings".
This sign could not be understood until our time. Many of you
can remember when few people could go anywhere except by
streetcar or train, then came the automobile. It carried us to and
from our work. It released us to wander the highways like gypsies
until, as the prophet Daniel said, many shall run to and fro. How
accurate the quaint language of Nahum is. "The chariots shall rage
in the streets". Go out on the main streets in and out of the big
cities at the rush hours. Hear the angry horns, watch the reckless
drivers weave from lane to lane‑shouting insults at whoever beats
them to an opening in the mob. "They shall jostle one against
another in the broad ways."
Isn't that why you pay for collision, liability, medical and hospital
insurance? "The chariots shall be with flaming torches. They shall
seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings." The words
translated torches, mean lamps, shining, throwing light. It could
well be translated, "The chariots shall be equipped with shining
lamps". Drive the great highways at night and watch where
oncoming traffic comes over the crest of a hill toward you, 3 or 4
lanes abreast, a great river of light flowing toward you. How
accurately the prophet describes these things 2,600 years before
even the names for these things had been coined!
For what purpose is this vision, just to anticipate our modern
progress? No indeed, Nahum warns us that this occurs in the day of
His preparation. Whose preparation? Our great enemy, about whom
Nahum has been talking. Since the coming of the automobile, two
great world wars have destroyed all the great empires except that
of the beast kingdom of anti Christian communism. We now see
dictatorships more powerful, more evil and cruel than ever before
in history. The invention of the atom and hydrogen bombs now
give stern meaning to Yahshua's warning in Matthew 24:22,
"Except those days be shortened, there
should no flesh be saved".
No wonder that the prophet Habakkuk in Habakkuk 3:16 said
about this, "When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at
the voice, and I trembled in myself, that I might be at rest in the day
of trouble: when he cometh up into the people, he will invade them
with his troops".
In the day of His preparation, there must be our preparation also.
We cannot cringe in cowardly submission to evil. Our purpose, our
glorious destiny in this world is to destroy evil. Yahweh told us
through the prophet Jeremiah 51:20, "Thou art My battle axe and
weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations and
with thee will I destroy kingdoms".
Isaiah 54:17 promises, "No weapon that is formed against thee
shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise up against thee in
judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants
of Yahweh and their righteousness of me saith Yahweh."
