The Word of God about the end of the world and the Day of the Lord
nodded His head sighing . The countless crowd of angels was standing trembling with the fear of the right wrath of the Judge .
When the Lord reached to the half of this age , He said : “ The end of it is full of the stink of the sin , of the human things , which all are false and filthy : envy , hatred , lying , blasphemy , enmity , riots , sexual immoralities , murders , abortions , greed , love of silver , remembrance of evil things . But this is enough ! I will cut it down in half ! Let the reign of the sin come to an end ! And by saying these things full of anger , the Lord gave to the archangel Michael the signal for the judgment . Immediately , that one with his army took the most shining and unspeakable throne and left .
That host was so numerous that the earth had no room on it . And running , they were crying within the voice of thunder : Holy , Holy , Holy , and the Lord Sabaoth ! The heaven and the earth are full of His glory . And the heaven and the earth were shaken by this frightening crying . Holy , Holy , Holy , great and frightened , wonderful and glorified is the Lord forever and ever .
The Prophecies of the Devout Andrew , the fool for Christ ( Who lived in the time of the King Leon , the Wise of Constantinople , in 882 )
ONCE , while having rest , Epiphany with Devout Andrew , the disciple asked this , saying : “ Tell me father , please , how is to be the end of this world ? When is the beginning of the pains going to take place ? And how will the people know that the end of the world is coming close and by what signs will be the appearances ?
And the Devout said : “ Listen , son , for the beginning of the pains and for the end of the world and for some other things :
… Therefore , my son , Epiphany , our city will be lost because of so many evil things and trespasses , which I have told you about , that will come to take place in the world , as our Lord , Jesus Christ said that it was the beginning of evils . After the destroying of our city , the end of the world being closed , as I have already spoken about this before , and after the fullness of time of all nations , which in their turn , had ruled in different times , God will raise the scepter of the Israelites ( by antichrist ), to reign in the seventh century towards the eighth one , which the Prophet Isaiah prophesied about , saying this : “ God will raise a sign to the fullness of the nations , who ruled over the scattered sheep of Israel ( that is , the Christians ) among the nations , and the scattered Israel ( that is , the Israelites who were deceived by antichrist ) will be gathered together in the holy city of Jerusalem .” And then Israel , as then when it came out of Egypt , as the Saint Apostle Paul also confesses , who says : When the number of the nations will be fulfilled , then the entire Israel will be saved .
These both mentioned above , are the same with those spoken by the Saint Martyr Hippolytus ( pope of Rome ), who spoke about the coming of antichrist , and that the Jews were first to be deceived . And our Lord , Jesus Christ , testifies about this , saying : “ I have come in the Name of the Father and you have not received Me ; and that one will come in his name , and you will receive him .” … – Explain me more profoundly , said Epiphany , which is the hypostasis of the ages . – It is their endless extension , that is , the ongoing succession of the times and the endlessness of the years . Their essence is a very beautiful and wonderful spirit , which is set on its entire span by seven signs ( points ) ( that is , it is divided by eight periods of time ).
