EVEN GOD'S WRATH IS MOTIVATED BY HIS LOVE

As horrible as the events listed in the Book of Revelation are, they are motivated by the love of God for His creation.  The warnings are, first of all, for the Church in chapters two and three.  Revelation 4:1 has been viewed as picturing the event to follow the Church Age; the Rapture, the removal of the Church from this earth, shows that God warns man for just so long, and then, when He decides mankind has had enough time to repent, He stops warning and acts!

 

Revelation Chapter Two

[5] Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
[16] Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth.
[21] And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
[22] Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

Revelation Chapter Three

[3] Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
[19] As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

This is also true for the lost (unsaved) billions who have rejected Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.  Chapters nine and sixteen show that God's grace will, one day, give way to His judgments upon earth.

Revelation Chapter Nine

[20] And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

[21] Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

Revelation Chapter Sixteen

[9] And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give Him glory.
[11] And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

Call upon Jesus to forgive your sins, and call upon Him to be your Lord!

While there is still time!
