Destruction must happen before renewal can take place. It is said that the Law is the compassion of the Old Testament. Christ’s renewal cannot take place unless the idolatry is removed for God alone will stand against the corruption and evils of government and those who stand against Him will be destroyed for will destroy the rich who trust their wealth. There is compassion on those who humble themselves before El Shaddi but destruction on the unrepentant.  The Lamb comforts the oppressed and fights tyranny. The greatest days are still before us for it is time to rebuild our trust in Adoni. Now there is a greater hope and accomplishment though Jesus will be greater.
