1 | Need more on THE HOUR and the ALL who he | Rev 20:5 | charis | 7362 | ||
Dear Isabel, If I may ask, what is the purpose of knowing the answer to this question? Please, I mean no harm. I understand that all believers should desire to know more about God, His plan, and how to live in Him. When I was a new believer, I was stricken with a curiosity about the end times. I am not that 'old' now, but I can no longer see that point in striving for that which is hidden, and will remain hidden until the return of the Lord. Please remind me. If possible, tell me where in the Word we are encouraged to seek after such answers. Again, please do not be upset with me. I see a lot of focus on these things, yet no one has explained from the Bible why they spend so much time on them. In Christ Jesus, charis |

Brother charis: I am working on a new book about The End Times, and I saw this site as an opportunity to glean wisdom from others, especially about a topic that can have serious ramifications for those who postulate theories based on conjecture and inference, rather than allowing scripture to validate and verify other scripture. I'm solely using all and whatever resources available to ascertain truth. As a teacher and a writer, I feel an obligation to seek whatever answers may lie out there, rather than depending solely on my own conclusions. I'm also trying to adhere to James warnings:James 3:1 Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2 We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check. 3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4 Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go.5 Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark,(James 3:1-5.)" I guess the purpose of all this, Brother Charis, is that I don't want to get in trouble with God! Yours In Christ! |
