The Monday Market Plunge

It is almost too obvious to comment, yet I am compelled to comment on the market plunge on Monday. Yahoo News reported that: "The Dow Jones industrial average lost 777 points Monday, its biggest single-day fall ever, easily beating the 684 points it lost on the first day of trading after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks."

The Stewart Bible School in Scotland has explained the significance of the number 7 as:
"The number seven has deep spiritual significance. It has been held sacred by the Hebrews and other Semite peoples since the dawn of time. It represents perfection and holiness. It is used throughout the Scriptures and in this sense is the Almighty's Number. We read of:
Samson's seven locks of consecration. (Judges 16:13-19)
The seven pillars of wisdom's house. (Proverbs 9:1)
The sevenfold sign of total commitment and dependence (2 Chron. 29: 20-21)
The seven lambs to attest the conclusion of a peace treaty. (Genesis 21:28-30)
The seven fold sprinkling of blood before cleansing was complete. (Lev:16:19)
The seven week count to Pentecost, the seven year count to the sabbatical year and the seven times seven year count to the Jubilee year. (Lev. 23:15, Lev.25:1-9)
The seven candlesticks, seven churches, seven stars, seven seals, seven trumpets, seven thunders, and seven plagues mentioned in the book of Revelation etc."

If 7 is the number of completion, then 777 could be interpreted as the number of the Holy Trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Is this a sign of Divine Judgment? Or is the number a mere coincidence? I suggest to you that God signed His name to the market plunge on Monday. I suggest to you that it is a sign of the coming judgment against America for the national sins of abortion and homosexuality. God's wrath is not talked about much these days as it doesn't produce large offerings. However, the truth is that God is angry at sin. He hates sin so much that He gave His only Son Jesus Christ as an offering for it. Jesus suffered for sin; He died for sin; and He arose again to show victory over sin. America needs to wake up before it is too late. Jesus said in Luke 13:3: "except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." America, except you repent, you will perish. These are somber words for somber times; however, it is the message of the hour.
