DEATH TO THE CITIES!     GP 373   30/11/75

         1. ALL FORMS OF GOD'S CREATION ARE REPRODUCTIVE, REGENERATIVE. It's continually being reborn & repaired, repairing itself & its own wounds & its injuries.--Think of it!--Man has yet to create any kind of machine that repairs itself! God created a machine that repairs itself! God's created life is creative, productive, reproductive, regenerative & multiplies.
         2. BUT WHAT MAN MAKES IS TOTAL WASTE & TOTAL DEATH! GOD HATES CITIES! Cities are the glory of MAN--Man's greatest achievements are his cities. That's what he brags about more than anything else, his big buildings & his big cities.
         3. THE THINGS MAN'S BUILT ARE PURE DEATH! There's NOTHING alive about them. They are death & dead to begin with & can only continue to die unless Man keeps patching them up & patching them up. Eventually they get past the point of repair to where he can't even patch it up anymore. It totally rots & wears away & collapses, as you can see by all the big buildings of the past glorious history of past civilisations. Where are they today?
         4. WHEN MAN STARTS BUILDING THESE THINGS WHICH WERE NOT OF GOD IN THE FIRST PLACE, he's headed on a crash course to destruction! All of the various means of rapid transportation that are faster than a horse are not of God! Anything that's faster than a horse is TOO rapid.--God hates cars! In fact, manmade rapid transportation today kills more people than anything else besides old age! If old age doesn't get you, rapid transportation will!
         5. So MAN'S INVENTIONS are actually nothing but DEATH-DEALING. They're not only death & dead to begin with, but they're also DEATH-DEALING! That's all the Devil's system, as his whole idea is destruction. So he has Man continually busy building machines & engines & weapons of destruction.--Not only war, but rapid transportation!
         6. AND WHEN MAN STARTS FOLLOWING THE DEVIL'S WAY OF BUILDING BUILDINGS THEY ARE GOING TO KILL HIM, means of RAPID TRANSPORTATION that are slaughtering him by the millions already, buildings that all it'll take is a little shake & down they come & are going to kill him by the millions when it happens! I'll never forget that vision I had when I saw all those buildings falling! They were just toppling like DOMINOES, horrible, all the towers falling!
         7. IN THE BIBLE GOD CALLS THEM TOWERS--& all He has to do is shake the Earth just a little bit & down they come! It seems to me rather significant, isn't it, that the most destructive disaster that there is is an EARTHQUAKE. But what does it destroy? Why does Man consider it the most destructive form of disaster or catastrophe? Because it destroys his BUILDINGS, his PROUD CITIES! It destroys Man's pride, his vain creations!
         8. AS TOYNBEE THE HISTORIAN SAID, "CITIES ARE MAN'S FESTERING SORES ON THE BODY POLITIC! THE CURSE OF CIVILISATION IS ITS CITIES!" Take NEW YORK CITY for example now: They don't know WHAT to do with it! But one of these days it's going to be totally abandoned, just a wreck! Because the people can't get food there, they won't have water there, & then what's going to happen?--The people are going to DESERT it!
         9. THEIR CITIES ARE SO VULNERABLE, so TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON THE ARTIFICIAL MEANS OF SURVIVAL, electricity, gas, sewage, piped water & shipped-in food & all that, they're going to be the first to go!
         10. DISASTER KNOWS NO RICH OR POOR, they're all on the same level when the earthquake comes, all brought down to the same level.
         11. The POOR MAN who's already living in the HILLS is a lot safer than the guys at the top of those SKYSCRAPERS!
         12. SO WHEN IT HAPPENS, THE ONLY SAFE PLACE TO BE IS IN THE LORD, amen? Because all of Man's inventions & creations are going to be destroyed. The best place to be will be where God's creations are, the fields & the plants, the trees & the flowers, praise the Lord? TYJ!
         13. THE DAYS WHEN THE TOWERS WILL FALL! "The Earth shall reel to & fro like a drunken man," it says in Isaiah 24:20. That's when the whole Earth is going to shake, the whole Earth is going to tremble before the Lord, the days of His judgements.
