The bottom line; trying to figure out when has nothing to do with what Christ has tasked us with...nothing.
There’s too many Christians who want to be “raptured” from their responsibilities.
noone is saying it does- there’s no reason you can’t be about the father’s business and look for His coming as well- we are capable of multitasking- just keep an eye out for the middle east wanting to lure Israel into a ‘peace deal’- that’s one of the big signs- the temple is another big one- IF we see those things, then we might wanna sit up and take note-
We are also coming up on the end of a ‘generation’ that the word speaks of- it certainly can’t hurt to keep an eye on current events during this time- IF we’re wron-g- then oh well, no harm done- IF we’re right, then We’ll be resting with God- it’s a no lose situation- it’s not like people who watch are so locked into watching that we can’t function outside of the watching or anything
