Grenfell Tower. When Things Go Wrong

The photos this morning resemble a horror movie. All  24 floors of the Grenfell Tower completely engulfed in flames and a column of black smoke rising over South London.
There had been a horrible calamity with loss of life and severe injury.
A whole residential apartment block had gone up in flames resulting in the complete destruction of the building.
It is worthy of note that, as reports come back from the fire crews sent to fight the blaze, a system of safety procedures failed to function.
The large metal fire doors to the building were locked and remained so until the frames around them burned down.
The dry rising mains (large empty water pipes within the tower) could not be charged from the water mains outside the building.
Internal fire alarms failed to function while everything around them was going up in smoke.
It remained for the residents themselves to bang on neighbour's doors and then run for their lives.
More news will be forthcoming BUT let me be clear my friends, such events have been allowed to teach the rest of humanity a lesson.
For fifty five years of my life I have been telling people across the earth to prepare themselves for the coming Day of God. 
The Apostle Peter describes it thus "When the heavens shall be on fire and the elements shall melt with fervent heat."
He therefore concludes. "Make your peace with God and prove it by your godly conduct and your daily obedience to His Word and Will down here on earth."
The best safety procedures known to man.


Be ready.
Ian
