Bible References "There's a man going around taking names" a man will one day come to pass judgment.

These events will be accompanied by trumpets, pipers, and "one hundred million angels singing". The voice of the Lord in Revelation is often likened to the sound of a loud trumpet. (Revelation 1:10; 4:1; and 8:13) Revelation 5:11 "There'll be a golden ladder reaching down." references to Jacob's dream of a ladder or stairwell (Jacob's ladder) from earth to heaven and God's subsequent blessing of Jacob in Genesis 28:12. "Or disappear into the potter's ground" is a reference to the field that was purchased with the money Judas Iscariot received for betraying Jesus as recorded in Matthew 27:3-10. The field was purchased by the chief priests "as a burial place for strangers" "It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come" is a reference to the book of Revelation. Jesus Christ refers to himself as "the Alpha and the Omega" in Revelation (1:8; 21:6; 22:13). Alpha and Omega are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, hence God is, "the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." The lines "Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still. Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still. Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still." is another reference to the book of Revelation (22:11). "the whirlwind is in the thorn tree". "Till Armageddon, no Shalam, no Shalom," Armageddon refers to the climactic battle between good and evil in Revelation 16:16. Shalom means "peace" in Hebrew. Shalam might reference Salaam, meaning "peace" in Arabic, or could refer to "Shalam" the equivalent word in Aramaic language spoken by Judean contemporaries of Jesus (and as Syriac language by Iraqi Assyrian Christians today). Or possibly it could reference the Hebrew verb Shlam meaning "to be in a covenant of peace." "The father hen will call his chickens home" is a reference to a lament Jesus spoke regarding Jerusalem as recorded in Luke 13:34. One line says "The virgins are all trimming their wicks." This refers to a parable told by Jesus in Matthew 25:7. The women who were "trimming their wicks" were ready for Jesus' return. "It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks" is from Acts 9:5. The apostle Paul also refers to the time when he was knocked to the ground by a voice from heaven in Acts 26:14. It reads, "And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is

hard for thee to kick against the pricks." The Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech here reads, "You are finding it painful to kick against the ox-goad." And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts...
And I looked and behold, a pale horse And his name that sat on him was Death And Hell followed with him The pale horse is the fourth horse.

Revelation 16:12-16 And the sixth Angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And He gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD. Isaiah 24:1-6 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word. The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and an howling from the second, and a great crashing from the hills. And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD's wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy: for He shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land. That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers "Wail, for the day of the Lord is near; as destruction from the Almighty it will come!"
Isaiah 13:6 ESV
