January 14th, 2011 | Prophecy | No Comment  
Micah and the Endtimes Micah, who prophesied contemporaneously with Isaiah, spoke of the latter days when God would come to bring both judgment and peace. This two-fold  purpose of eschatology is often downplayed to pit one against the other. We're told that if God is coming to judge the nations, then he is not bringing peace or salvation.

According to Numbers chapter 10, Israel learned the meaning of the use of the trumpets through the instruction of Moses. Specific details for the gathering of the assembly, advancing, going to war and in the accompaniment with the appointed feasts were assigned to the blowing of trumpets.
