The attitude of the average Christian today is relax and be raptured. But He is coming... and when God gets angry you´ve no idea what it is. Like a thousand volcanoes exploding.

Great eagles fly alone great lions hunt alone great souls walk alone-alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanied. Prophets are lone men they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.

Image
To stand before men on behalf of God is one thing. To stand before God on behalf of men is something entirely different.
