What about God's Warning?

Before disaster happens God always gives His people a warning. In the time of the Exodus, He let the captive Israelites know about the last plague to strike Egypt:

Exodus 12:12
"On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn—both men and animals—and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD."

Not only did God warn them about the coming destruction, he also let them know how to be protected.

Exodus 12:11
"...Eat it in haste; it is the Lord's Passover"

Exodus 12:13
"The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt."

The blood of the Passover was the sign that ensured their protection from the last disaster; this was the Word of God. Even though slaughtering a lamb and putting the blood on the sides and tops of the the door frames of their houses may have seemed nonsensical, or against the common thought, those who kept it had the promise of God. They did not receive any death or destruction. As God said, the plague passed over them. After their act of obedience, God freed them from slavery, as God promised.

What about those who did not obey the word of God,
and did not heed the warning from God?

Exodus 12:29-30
"At midnight the LORD struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock as well. Pharaoh and all his officials and all the Egyptians got up during the night, and there was loud wailing in Egypt, for there was not a house without someone dead."

For those who did not listen, the result was tragic.

What about nowadays?
Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother are warning us about what will happen soon...
