Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste,
and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof;
"It is impossible to describe the horror and despair of those who have trampled upon God's law.
To secure the favor of the world,
---they set aside its precepts
---and taught others to transgress.
Now they are condemned by that law which they have despised. They see that they are without excuse.
The enemies of God's law have a new conception of truth and duty.
Too late they see that the Sabbath is the seal of the living God.
They have been fighting against God.
Religious teachers have
---led souls to perdition
---while professing to guide them to Paradise."
E.G.W.
and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof;
because they have transgressed the laws,
changed the ordinance,
broken the everlasting covenant.
Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate:
therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned....
Isaiah 24:1,5,6
