Definitely a good thing to think about, whats interesting is the scriptures tell us those rich people, governors, rulers, and kings of the earth who try to hide in bunkers or mountains or get away, will actually be killed.

Here is just a small sample of the many:

Quote
Job 34:22

There is no dark place, no deep shadow, where evildoers can hide.


Quote
Amos 9:3

And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them:


Quote
Isaiah 2:8-12

Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made:

And the mean man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself: therefore forgive them not.

Go into the rocks, hide in the ground from dread of the LORD and the splendor of his majesty!

Human pride will be brought down, and human arrogance will be humbled. Only the LORD will be exalted on that day of judgment.

For the LORD of Heaven's Armies has a day of reckoning. He will punish the proud and mighty and bring down everything that is exalted.


Quote
Revelation 6:15

And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:


All these verses and many more talk about it.

Will the rich men be able to Hide from the LORD and His armies and when He seeks them out at the end of the age?

Can anyone hide from He who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb?

It depends on if these rich and powerful men are putting their trust in their possessions or God? Hence the verse that reads that you cannot serve both God and money.
