The wrath of God, the great tribulation, is coming upon this world because of the increase of evil in this present world. The evil we see today is a sign showing us the closeness of the coming of Jesus and the wrath of God that will come at the end of this present world.
No man knows exactly when the great tribulation will come or when Jesus will return to gather the elect from off this present earth, but we have signs.
When we see the leaves appear on the trees don't we know spring is upon us?
Jesus explains to us in Luke 21, that it will be the same today.
As the wickedness increases around us and men approve wickedness, this signals the pending wrath of God that will come upon this world.
One of the signs is increase of homosexuals, as it was in the day of Sodom before God destroyed Sodom. (Genesis 19)
What God says in Bible about homosexuals and lesbians:
Romans 1:26-27 ... For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
So we know this is one of the sins which brings the wrath of God in the destruction at the end of this present world. As we see the increase of this sins, we can know the wrath of God is not far away.

Genesis 19
And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
(Angels look like natural men. Angels do not have wings. Cherebims have wings, not angels.)
2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3 And he (Lot) pressed upon them greatly;
(Lot knew the evil of men in Sodom and he was trying to protect these 2 "men" from the evil that he knew could come if they remained in the street of Sodom overnight. Lot did not know these 2 men were actually angels of God.)
and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
(These homosexuals were from every quarter of the city of Sodom. Sodom was filled with homosexuals.)
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
("know them" ... have sex with them)
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
(Lot knew the wickedness planned against these 2 strangers by the men of Sodom. It is amazing that Lot called the men of Sodom "brethren", and that Lot chose to live among the wickedness of this city for Lot could have lived anywhere. Yet Lot was righteous for we read that in II Peter 2:7-9 And (God) delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: 8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
Genesis 19
8 (Lot said) Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
10 But the men (the angels) put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
11 And they (the angels) smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
(Angels have great power of God.)
12 And the men (the angels) said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:
13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.
15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
16 And while he lingered, the men (the angels) laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
(The 2 angels literally drug Lot and his wife and his 2 daughters out of the city of Sodom.)
17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he (the angel) said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
(Then Lot fights against the word of God that is carried by the angels of God.)
18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:
19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
22 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26 But his wife (Lot's wife) looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

To us today God says:
* Separate yourselves from those people who call themselves Christians but they reject portions of scripture and go in another way. For they are anti-Christ, opposite from the Word.
* Follow those scriptures that are brought to you by the Holy Spirit for they are stepping stones leading you to the right place in the sight of God.
The wrath of God, the great tribulation, is coming upon this present world before God destroys this heaven and earth.
(The plagues of God that are coming: Revelation 8-16)

That which we must do throughout the day, each day.
Philippians 4
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Is there anything that troubles you? any person? any fear? any dread?
If so, this means you have not discussed it with God in prayer or you have not yet heard from God about the matter or you have not focused on that which God said to you about the matter.
In that case, you need to talk with God again and really get it established by God and focus on that, doing what is right in the sight of God.
Then you can live in peace instead of torment.
