We are approaching a time of great wrath. God has revealed how He will decide the right time for the start of His full-blown wrath. On one hand, it will depend on how many of His sheep are persecuted and killed. The killing of a certain number by persecuting them will breach the limit God has set. This breach will trigger the start of the time of the full-blown wrath of God. It could be decades away. This is revealed in the Book of Revelation. On the other hand, God requires angels to watch the sheep, like shepherds. Now, since the deaths of the sheep are numbered, the number killed in modern times is compared with similar deaths in other times such as a thousand years previously, when other angels were presiding over the flock like shepherds. If the number killed under the shepherd in our times it is greater than were killed on the watch of shepherds long ago, the new shepherds will be condemned to fiery punishment. God has assigned a certain number of watch periods with an angel shepherding the flock through each period. We are close to the last watch period, or at the start of it. This is found in the Book of Enoch ‘Apocalypse of Animals’ vision, which tells a slightly different angle to what God has revealed in the Book of Revelation. Both revelations tell of the time following on from these persecutions as a time of wrath. Five to ten years of wrath will destroy everything. Then the Christ will come. The thousand years will begin.
