For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
“Who shall be able to stand?”
The question is rhetorical in many respects. It is meant to express the incredible wrath of the day. It’s nothing like anything anyone has seen before.
Generally, as bad is it gets, most people can manage. It might be hard, painful, miserable, but it’s doable. None of us like going through tough times. Some people don’t survive them but by in large the world goes on.
The point of this is that the world will not go on – at least not like it was before. When the great day of His wrath is come the heaven will pass away and the earth will melt with fervent heat. Sun moon and stars will fall. The great day of God’s wrath is such that there is literally no one able to stand up to it.
- No one but God Himself.
- No one but those hidden in God in Christ.
The world has known some strong men. There are stories of people who have endured the worst the world could do, and they’ve come out the stronger for it. Not so when the great day of God’s wrath comes.
There is only one safe place.
That’s inside faith in Jesus Christ.
