If this prophesy comes to pass then he should not despise His Maker for cutting him to size but should embrace every opportunity to reconcile with Him. After all His ways are perfect, impartial and above reproach.
After all as pilgrims and sojourners of this world we have every reason to obey His voice to save our souls from the forthcoming inferno.
After all, the flesh is clay and will return where it came from but the soul is immortal and will return to Our Maker. We should all be comforted with this hope of renewal and everlasting life.
