The Second Coming will not catch the children of light unaware

(Before It's News)

 

"And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Luke 6:46

In addition to telling his disciples to love and forgive one another Jesus commanded them to watch. He did not insist that they be right as far as the exact timing of events and in fact gave parables depicting a 'delayed' return and certainly an unexpected one for most of the world…so likely prophetic timelines will be adjusted by watchers until the very end of the age.

In Matthew 24 his disciples came right out and asked "what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?" Jesus' answer consumes the next 38 verses followed by the admonishment "Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come."

 

28Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:

29So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.

30Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.

31Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

32But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

33Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

34For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

35Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

36Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

37And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

 

Mark 13

 

1But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

4But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

5Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

6Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

 

1 Thessalonians 5

    Yeah sure

    God: First I’m going to create humans with original sin. Then I’m going to impregnate a women with myself so I can be born. Once alive I’m going to kill myself as a sacrifice to myself. So I can forgive humans for the crime I committed them to in the first place.

    B,b,b,barking mad.

  • He is a hard man to understand…but I like a challenge :)

  • Important point, Sharon, which seem to be forgotten every Time. One moment it’s just like always and the next thing you know nothing will ever be the same.
    I liked the analogy to a pregnant woman – very true.

    Yours from the Holy Land,

  • Eagle, being a new papa you are recently experienced in life changing overnight…after 16 years it is hard for me to recapture just how that feels. We are now expecting the birth of a new world (and a new us) after Oct 28th and this is one ‘baby’ that’s never been born before.

    I’ve never been inclined to visit the Holy Land…i also said I would never live in California, but ended up there for seven of the most important months of my life in 2006/7, so i don’t pretend to know my future anymore.

    what I know is that Life can change on a dime, Sharon

  • That’s 3 different pop-up ads from your page alone — 4 if you count the page-interrupting join-us-now screen requiring either to signup or login. i literally created an account Just so i could tell you that your greed for advertising is now preventing at least * t h i s * once-faithful reader from ever visiting your page again. i literally was not even able to X out of those ads on my cellphone (which is very frequently the Only mechanism i have to read your feed) it does seem that ye have chosen which house ye shall serve but that’s in keeping with the last days isn’t it? gotta choose that greed over practicality eh?
