THE BIBLE SAYS OTHERWISE.
1 Thessalonians 5;5 Now as for the times and the seasons, brothers,
YOU need nothing to be written to YOU. 2 For YOU yourselves know quite
well that Jehovah?s day is coming exactly as a thief in the night. 3
Whenever it is that they are saying: ?Peace and security!? then sudden
destruction is to be instantly upon them just as the pang of distress
upon a pregnant woman; and they will by no means escape. 4 But YOU,
brothers, YOU are not in darkness, so that that day should overtake
YOU as it would thieves, 5 for YOU are all sons of light and sons of
day. We belong neither to night nor to darkness.
6 So, then, let us not sleep on as the rest do, but let us stay awake
and keep our senses. 7 For those who sleep are accustomed to sleep at
night, and those who get drunk are usually drunk at night. 8 But as
for us who belong to the day, let us keep our senses and have on the
breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet the hope of salvation; 9
because God assigned us, not to wrath, but to the acquiring of
salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10 He died for us, that,
whether we stay awake or are asleep, we should live together with him.
11 Therefore keep comforting one another and building one another up,
just as YOU are in fact doing.
It may look as though peace is being established, But the world has
been judged as too wicked to continue as it is. God will step in and
do some housekeeping. No one knows when, Not even Jesus his son.
Matthew 24;36 ?Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the
angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.
And it is not the earth that will be destroyed, but that wicked people
will be removed.
Matthew 24;36 ?Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the
angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 For just as
the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. 38
For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking,
men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that
Noah entered into the ark; 39 and they took no note until the flood
came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will
be. 40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken along and
the other be abandoned; 41 two women will be grinding at the hand
mill: one will be taken along and the other be abandoned. 42 Keep on
the watch, therefore, because YOU do not know on what day YOUR Lord is
coming.
43 ?But know one thing, that if the householder had known in what
watch the thief was coming, he would have kept awake and not allowed
his house to be broken into. 44 On this account YOU too prove
yourselves ready, because at an hour that YOU do not think to be it,
the Son of man is coming.
We have been warned. |
