Convergence, The Last Days

The Tribulation Judgments: God’s Wrath on a Rebellious World

The convergence of politics, economy, and religion reaches its peak in the Antichrist’s system. But this is not the end of the story. When mankind unites in rebellion against God, the Lord Himself responds with direct judgment.

The Bible describes this period as the Tribulation — a time when God’s wrath is poured out on a rebellious world. It is marked by escalating judgments that shake every part of creation and expose the futility of human power.

Headlines like “Global Catastrophes Intensify” and “Unprecedented Disasters Shake the World” already foreshadow what Scripture says will come on a global scale.


Agenda 2030: Man’s Futile Solutions

Agenda 2030 emphasizes climate action and sustainable development:

  • Goal 13: Climate action — humanity’s attempt to “save the planet.”
  • Goal 11: Sustainable cities — visions of resilience and safety.

Yet the Bible declares that no global agreement or human plan will stop what God has decreed. Cities will fall (Revelation 16:19), and the earth itself will reel under judgment.


Current Events in Motion

  • Natural disasters intensifying — earthquakes, floods, fires, and storms.
  • Climate initiatives framed as humanity’s chance to control the earth’s future.
  • Global cooperation on crises foreshadowing the collective response during the Tribulation.
  • Echoes of Revelation’s plagues already appearing in smaller form: pandemics, famine, and economic disruption.

What we see now are birth pains. The fullness will come when God’s judgments are released.


Prophecy Foretold This

Revelation describes a sequence of escalating judgments:

  • The Seal Judgments (Revelation 6, c. AD 95): conquest, war, famine, death, martyrs, and cosmic disturbances.
  • The Trumpet Judgments (Revelation 8–9, c. AD 95): vegetation burned, seas turned to blood, waters poisoned, darkness, locusts unleashed, demonic armies released.
  • The Bowl Judgments (Revelation 16, c. AD 95): painful sores, seas and rivers turned to blood, scorching heat, darkness, Euphrates dried up, and the gathering of Armageddon.

Other prophets echoed these truths:

  • “Behold, the Lord makes the earth empty and makes it waste, distorts its surface and scatters abroad its inhabitants… The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants… Therefore the curse has devoured the earth.” (Isaiah 24:1–6, c. 700 BC, NKJV)
  • “And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: Blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.” (Joel 2:30–31, c. 835 BC, NKJV)
  • “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.” (Matthew 24:21, c. AD 60, NKJV).

These judgments are global, devastating, and undeniable.


Why This Matters

  • God’s sovereignty overrules man’s control. No agenda, treaty, or policy can stop His decrees.
  • His wrath is purposeful. It brings justice, exposes rebellion, and prepares for Christ’s kingdom.
  • Urgency is required. The time to repent and believe in Christ is now, before these events unfold.

God’s Pattern of Judgment and Deliverance

God has always distinguished between the rebellious and His own:

  • Egypt (Exodus 7–12, c. 1445 BC): Plagues fell on Egypt but Israel was preserved.
  • Sodom (Genesis 19, c. 2000 BC): God judged the city but delivered Lot.
  • The Flood (Genesis 6–9, c. 2300 BC): God judged the world but preserved Noah and his family.

So it will be again: God will judge the world but preserve His covenant promises and bring His kingdom.


A Call to Watchfulness

  • For unbelievers: these warnings are mercy — flee to Christ while there is time.
  • For believers: comfort in the Blessed Hope — “For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Thessalonians 5:9, NKJV).
  • For all: know that no global agenda can stop God’s plan, but His mercy is available now through Jesus Christ.
