In Revelation 18:4-5, God says to us:
“And I heard another voice from heaven saying,
“Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and
lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven,
and God has remembered her iniquities.”
The voice of God, crying out: “Come out of her, my people”, “Do not share her sins”, “Do not receive her plagues”, “Come out of her, my people”, continued to resound from my hearts.
What we can realize from these words are:
The Lord’s people can also receive plagues.
If we do not come out of it, we will be partakers of its sins.
If we share in her sin, we will suffer the plagues that she will suffer.
The reason for God’s earnest cry for us to come out of her is so understandable.
The Lord desperately wants us to get out of it.
But do we know what it is to get out of her, how can we come out of her, and from where do we have to come out?
We will need an honest question to ask if we know the answers to these questions and that question will be a very important question for all of us living in these end times.
