First, seven seals; now seven trumpets, announcing seven plagues:
The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk. Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts. (Revelation 9:20-21)
These two verses of scripture seem to confirm my opinion that no amount of punishment deters people from whatever they are committed to do. Evil is not overcome with evil, but it may be overcome with good.
What does this have to do with Christmas Day, the celebration of the incarnation of God in Jesus Christ?
