Luke 14:15-16


15 And another angel came out of the temple sanctuary, calling with a mighty voice to Him Who was sitting upon the cloud, Put in Your scythe and reap, for the hour has arrived to gather the harvest, for the earth’s crop is fully ripened.
  • God has to tell Jesus when to begin His judgment and return, for only our Father knows the day and hour of Jesus' return to the earth, Matthew 24:36.
  • Angel is message. So there will be a mighty message of salvation during the end times.
  • There is a cloud, so there is glory, Jesus is seated on our Father’s glory. We are seated on our Father’s glory. The angels are seated on our Father’s glory. All things work for our good because of our Father's glory.
  • And I heard every created thing in heaven and on earth and under the earth [in Hades, the place of departed spirits] and on the sea and all that is in it, crying out together, To Him Who is seated on the throne and to the Lamb be ascribed the blessing and the honor and the majesty (glory, splendor) and the power (might and dominion) forever and ever (through the eternities of the eternities)! Revelation 5:13
  • We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose. Romans 8:28
16 So He Who was sitting upon the cloud swung His scythe (sickle) on the earth, and the earth’s crop was harvested.
  • We are in this world but we are not of this world, John 15:19.
  • Even though we are here, we have been raised up to Heaven and made to sit together with Jesus where He is, Ephesians 2:6.
  • Jesus Alone judges.
  • Even the Father judges no one, for He has given all judgment (the last judgment and the whole business of judging) entirely into the hands of the Son, John 5:22
  • Jesus will judge during the Great Tribulation as He judged on the Cross, because He never changes.
  • And Jesus prayed, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. And they divided His garments and distributed them by casting lots for them. Luke 23:34
