Warning Voice
Once we know the truth, it is imperative that we share it with all, so that they too might know what is required. As the Lord Jesus told the disciples, "What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops." [Matthew 10:27]. For again how shall the people call on God if they do not believe in Him? And how shall they believe in Him if they have never heard of Him? And how shall they hear if we do not bare witness of Him and His Restored Gospel [Romans 10:13-17].
​
Jesus told the disciples the signs of His coming [Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 17 and 21], so that they might know what to look for and so they would watch and pray always. Jesus promised that there would come a day when God would withhold His blessings from the earth. That the hearts of men would fail them for fear because of those things which were to come, for the powers of heaven and earth would be shaken [Hebrews 12:18-29]. Jesus also promised that iniquity should abound in that day because the love many would wax cold [Matthew 24:12].
​
Jesus counseled that "when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh." [Luke 21:28]. Therefore, it is our responsibility to lift up our voice as like a trump, so that all who will hear, may hear.
Scriptures to Consider
Ezekiel 33:1-6 (KJV)
1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: 3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; 4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. 5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. 6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.
​
Luke 21:25-28, 34-36(KJV)
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh… 34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. 35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Hebrews 12:22-29 (KJV)
22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 …and to God the Judge of all… 24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant… 25 See that ye refuse not him [Jesus] that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him [Moses] that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. 27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. 28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: 29 For our God is a consuming fire.
