Just my two cents, but as Christ made very clear, nobody knows when the end will come. Not even him. Only the Father knows the hour.
Christ gave us the signs to look for, yet Christians have been analyzing and looking for signs of the end of days for the past 2000 years. And every generation for the past 2000 years has found reasons and justification in their own time of proof they were in the last days. All to no avail.
Rather than run around in circles chasing my tail and worrying about when the sky will fall, I try to focus on the Word, Christ’s warning and live the best Christian life possible. The end will come in the Lord’s perfect timing. We just need to be prepared for our own end when the time comes, regardless if it is from old age, illness, traffic accident or a random bolt of lightning. Everything else is a distraction and a waste of time, energy and faith.
So why worry about it. It’s all just mental masturbation.
That’s how I see it for what it’s worth.
“mental masturbation..”
Yes this sounds like a topic definitely not for you. Carry on!
True, no one knows the DAY or HOUR.
But when the disciples asked Him for signs of His near return He answered them in Matthew 24 and gave it to them. We can know the general time frame. Days and hours are specific.
So why to rapture deniers always love to presume the worst about people and on that basis falsely accuse them of believing and doing things they don't do?
It's called projection on your part. We don't all act like you would if you believed in the rapture.
We are told to watch..
Matthew 24:42
Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
There are many admonitions to watch .. watch for what?
Signs of his coming.
Why?
Personally I think being a bit on edge gives a bit of urgency to get the job done.
Just a thought.
