The March to Death

"Death, eternal death, will soon be the portion of all who reject Christ. All heaven is looking on to see what is being done by those who know the truth.
Many are in the condition that Christ speaks of as "neither cold nor hot." The works of such testify against them that they are not walking, and working, and praying, and teaching the word of life.
The world,
who act as though there were no God,
absorbed in selfish pursuits,
will soon experience sudden destruction,
and shall not escape.

Many continue in the careless gratification of self

 until they become so disgusted with life that they kill themselves.

Dancing and carousing,
drinking and smoking,
indulging their animal passions,
they go as an ox to the slaughter.

Satan is working with all his art and enchantments to keep men marching blindly onward,

until the Lord arises out of His place to punish the inhabitants of earth for their iniquities.

The whole world appears to be in the march to death."

Manuscript Releases vol.18 p.41 E.G.W.

And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground,

both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven;

and they were destroyed from the earth:

Genesis 7:23

For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage,

until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away;

so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Matthew 24:38,39
