A NUCLEAR BLAST

     Isa 5:11,12–WOE TO THOSE WHO RISE EARLY IN THE MORNING TO RUN AFTER THEIR DRINKS, WHO STAY UP LATE AT NIGHT TILL THEY ARE INFLAMED WITH WINE…BUT THEY HAVE NO REGARD FOR THE DEEDS OF THE LORD, NO RESPECT FOR THE WORK OF HIS HANDS.(NIV?)

     Isa 5:11–WOE UNTO THEM THAT RISE UP EARLY IN THE MORNING, THAT THEY MAY FOLLOW STRONG DRINK; THAT CONTINUE UNTIL NIGHT, TILL WINE INFLAME THEM!

      Isa 5:22 NIV–WOE TO THOSE WHO ARE HEROES AT DRINKING WINE AND CHAMPIONS AT MIXING DRINKS, WHO ACQUIT THE GUILTY FOR A BRIBE, BUT DENY JUSTICE TO THE INNOCENT.

     Pv 20:1–WINE IS A MOCKER, STRONG DRINK IS RAGING: AND WHOSOEVER IS DECEIVED THEREBY IS NOT WISE.

     Pv 31:4–5–IT IS NOT FOR KINGS, O LEMUEL, IT IS NOT FOR KINGS TO DRINK WINE; NOR FOR PRINCES STRONG DRINK:–LEST THEY DRINK, AND FORGET THE LAW, AND PERVERT THE JUDGMENT OF ANY OF THE AFFLICTED.

     Hab 2:15–WOE UNTO HIM THAT GIVETH HIS NEIGHBOUR DRINK, THAT PUTTEST THY BOTTLE TO HIM, AND MAKEST HIM DRUNKEN ALSO, THAT THOU MAYEST LOOK ON THEIR NAKEDNESS!

     Mt 24:48–51–BUT AND IF THAT EVIL SERVANT SHALL SAY IN HIS HEART, MY LORD DELAYETH HIS COMING; AND SHALL BEGIN TO SMITE HIS FELLOWSERVANTS, AND TO EAT AND DRINK WITH THE DRUNKEN; THE LORD OF THAT SERVANT SHALL COME IN A DAY WHEN HE LOOKETH NOT FOR HIM, AND IN AN HOUR THAT HE IS NOT AWARE OF, AND SHALL CUT HIM ASUNDER, AND APPOINT HIM HIS PORTION WITH THE HYPOCRITES: THERE SHALL BE WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH.

     Lk 12:45–46–BUT AND IF THAT SERVANT SAY IN HIS HEART, MY LORD DELAYETH HIS COMING; AND SHALL BEGIN TO BEAT THE MENSERVANTS AND MAIDENS, AND TO EAT AND DRINK, AND TO BE DRUNKEN; THE LORD OF THAT SERVANT WILL COME IN A DAY WHEN HE LOOKETH NOT FOR HIM, AND AT AN HOUR WHEN HE IS NOT AWARE, AND WILL CUT HIM IN SUNDER, AND WILL APPOINT HIM HIS PORTION WITH THE UNBELIEVERS.

     Ro 14:21–IT IS GOOD NEITHER TO EAT FLESH, NOR TO DRINK WINE, NOR ANY THING WHEREBY THY BROTHER STUMBLETH, OR IS OFFENDED, OR IS MADE WEAK.

     1 Cor 15:32–IF AFTER THE MANNER OF MEN I HAVE FOUGHT WITH BEASTS AT EPHESUS, WHAT ADVANTAGETH IT ME, IF THE DEAD RISE NOT? LET US EAT AND DRINK; FOR TO MORROW WE DIE.    What would it be like for you in those last few seconds when a nuclear blast takes place?
   First, expect no warning, or perhaps an air raid warning may go off—perhaps not.
    To begin with, there will be a flash of light. It will be so intense that it instantly fries anything that comes in contact. The temperature, for an instant, is in the millions of degrees. Fires will erupt in various places.
    The heat from the flash is intense. Many will die immediately.
   People's eyes are instantly gone, if their eyes are facing the light. Eye lids do little to protect the eyes.
    People may be standing on a sidewalk. Then, when the blinding flash occurs, the light and heat will turn the sidewalk a darker color and vaporize anyone standing there, leaving an impression of their shadow on the sidewalk.

    This is followed by an ear-piercing noise with the ground shaking and collapsing (depending on the distance a person is from the blast and the size of the blast).
   The blast (or shock wave) rushes out from the center at the speed of sound—slightly over 700 miles an hour.
   This is far faster than the speed of a tornado, and it is in all directions. The power of the blast is unbelievable. Everything in its path is flattened instantly. As the blast rushes out several miles from the center, it becomes less powerful depending on the size of the bomb.
   Then the blast, with it's debris, reverses direction and is sucked inward at the same speed. Anything that might have withstood the first blast may be destroyed by the implosion at over 700 miles an hour.
   A huge fireball also appears.
    Then there is the third part of the nuclear explosion—the radio-active killer. This we call the silent killer. There is more than one kind of this killer. It cannot be seen. It is not heard. It is the invisible rays. It might be compared to an x-ray machine multiplied so many times, how can it be measured? These invisible rays can destroy and kill.
    Depending on the dose a person receives, they might die instantly, or may suffer for many years. They may die a very slow, agonizing death. Other diseases may come forth, such as cancer. In addition, radio-active dust is in the clouds, and it rains down on everything for huge distances. The radio-active clouds travel as the wind directs it. Anyone even in the vicinity of where the blast went off many years later can become radio-active and die. It can kill grass, trees, animals, insects, birds, people—just about everything. It does not easily penetrate thick cement structures or several feet of water.
   When the smoke clears there may be a crater. It depends on the size of the hydrogen bomb. It also depends on where the explosion takes place, example, a high air drop, a low air drop or an underground explosion.
