You are misreading scripture. He is coming “Soon” after certain things happen, not “Soon” as in this lifetime, next year, or tomorrow.
...but I believe that you *know* that you are misreading scripture. You want people to behave today as if He is returning tomorrow, so you let your little “Soon” lie slide.
Because it benefits you.
Hmmmm ..?? “Coming soon”.
I believe it was Jesus’ disciples who also claimed “Jesus was coming soon”; and this occurred shortly after his death two thousand years ago.
Don’t worry; the Bible clearly says that “the father knows” when Jesus will return .. and until then I’ll keep reminding people there is still a little time to get your ticket to heaven.
BTW ... Roll Tide!
You have no authority in Scripture to make claims that Christ is not returning soon, or in our lifetime, and then you accuse me of misreading Scripture. On top of that, you falsely claim this discussion “Benefits” me in some way by believing what Christ said. “Can’t you discern the signs of the times.” You are an anti-Chriistian with your mocking and opposing. I estimate that is motivated by your love for this world, and the fact that you don’t want to face God. As I said, good luck to you. Every day in the headlines tells us we are closer.
