*/The day of the /**/Lord in the scriptures is a /day of vengeance*.
It is the Day that the *LORD brings Justice* to a nation, people or town.
We have the Day of the LORD that is *during the Tribulation time and a Day of the **LORD* that is at the end of this old earth.
For the wicked it is a *day of darkness and not light*.
*Many today say they desire the day of the **Lord*, but many will find it, as Israelites did, a day of darkness and not light.
*Some are even looking for the White Throne Judgment with great anticipation; it will be a day of darkness and not light*.
Pro 29:1 “He, that being often reproved hardeneth [his] neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.”
They had taken a *resolve that they would not turn at the words of the prophets.*
