REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Thirty Two - Jehovah's Wrath Against "the Earth" - Conclusion

The contents of this bowl strongly emphasize the choice that lies before humans.  They must suffer either the world's  disapproval or Jehovah's indignation.  Mankind has been put under compulsion to accept the mark of the wild beast, with the intent that "nobody might be able to buy or sell except a person having the mark, the name of the wild beast or the number of its name."  (Revelation 13:16, 17)  But there is a price to pay for this!  Jehovah regards those who accept the mark of the as being stricken wit "a hurtful  malignant ulcer."  Since 1922 ethey have been marked in public as having rejected the living God. Their political schemes have no success, and they suffer anguish. Spiritually, they are uncleann.  Unless they repet, this "hurtful " illness will be terminal, for it is now Jehovah's day of judgment.  There is no neutral ground between being a part of the world's  system of things  and serving Jehovah on the side of Christ - LUKE11:23; compare JAMES 4:4.
