JUDGMENT DAY COMING
Woe to you who desire the day of the LORD!  Why would you have the day of the LORD?  It is darkness, and not light,  as if a man fled from a lion,  and a bear met him, or went into the house and leaned his hand against the wall,  and a serpent bit him.  Is not the day of the LORD darkness, and not light, and gloom with no brightness in it? (Amos 5:18-20 ESV)

There is a large segment of western church-goers who are extremely fond of saying the following:
“I can’t wait…”; “Come take me away, Jesus (also known as “Calgon Theology”) or “I wish the Rapture would happen right now” or name your variation of any of this. Usually these statements are made by pew-sitters. These are the majority of Christians in our churches who come in weekly for an hour or so, in order to get their weekly inoculation of what they think they need. They then go about their lives for the rest of Sunday and the following days, thereby leaving no distinguishing mark between then and the next guy. We all know people like this.

We have all been around enough sincere believers to know that weak pewsitter from the “real deal” or the remnant. The remnant are very few as Jesus Himself said when He spoke about the “elect”. When He prayed in John 17 for this future followers – the saved, the elect – He said “I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.” in John 17:9.

In Exodus 3:14, we read “God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM”; and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you. Then later on, in the New Testament, Jesus revealed just Who He was when He told the pharisees who were crudely questioning Him:““Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am! ….(John 8:58)

“I AM WHO I AM” is the English of the original paleo Hebrew which Moses wrote. It is the unpronounceable tetragrammaton YHWH (or YaHWeH) or the Mighty Most Powerful God of Heaven.  This is the LORD you see in all caps in your Bible and mine. It is the word which we use as Jehovah.

More importantly, Yahweh, is Jesus! He said so Himself.  It was Jesus Who went with Moses in the Pillar of Cloud and Fire through the Wilderness; it was Jesus Who met with Moses in the Burning Bush and then gave Moses the Law and more, which he then wrote down.  It was Jesus Who visited Abraham personally in Genesis 18, right before He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.
