Some of the prophecies to come are so beyond imagining that they defy bringing into illustration. Chris Koelle did an amazing and in my opinion, supernaturally spooky job of making the book of Revelation into a graphic book. His art did manage to bring to two dimensions what is nearly incomprehensible to imagine in three.
In the photo below, it has nothing to do with the bible or prophecies or anything religious. A photographer, Lincoln Harrison, simply photographed stars with a long exposure, and ...well, let these guys at My Modern Met, (where I found Harrison's photography) explain.
"Photographer Lincoln Harrison continues to amaze us with his extensive collection of surreal Startrails. ...Recently, he produced a series in which each composition is filled with streaks of gorgeous light bursting across the atmosphere. Harrison documents the majestic night sky by using long exposures combined with a creative zoom technique, and then layering two images together in post-production."
The photograph immediately reminded me of the scene in Revelation where the stars fall from the sky. Here it is, with parallel verses:
"When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. (Revelation 6:12-14)
"All the stars in the sky will be dissolved and the heavens rolled up like a scroll; all the starry host will fall like withered leaves from the vine, like shriveled figs from the fig tree." (Isaiah 34:4)
"The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD." (Joel 2:31)
The scene will be utterly terrifying. Men will drop dead on the spot. "People fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken." (Luke 21:26). Imagine standing next to the tree and seeing this happen!
Repent of your sins and escape all these things.
Here is a true fact: "It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God." (Hebrews 10:31).
If you are saved, you are free from the chains of death! Made possible by the ONE MAN who lived a sinless life, and laid it down in voluntary submission to His Father's will, on behalf of His bride to be. Us.
