1 | Searching for the truth | Matt 24:14 | FytRobert | 80243 | ||
Hi, I have posted the following a couple of days ago but I have not received any helpful pointers. The following questions represent my current thinking but I am not sure that I am on the right track. Your helpful comments and guidance will be much appreciated. 1.Jesus will come again only after several events have come to past as stated in the bible.So, He will not come to-night, next week nor the week after? 2.After about 2000 years we are now in the midst of the events. 3.May be another 2000 years hence,before Jesus comes again? 4.Human life on this earth is comparatively short and it is very likely that this generation will depart from this world much earlier than Jesus coming.In view of this, it is better to prepare oneself immediately and before death to walk the path of Jesus.Simply because we do not know the hour nor the day of our migration to...? 5.So, in our attempt to bring in convertsour emphasis should be on our departure which is imminent rather than Jesus coming? With Love in Christ. FytRobert |

Scripture ... Matt 24, 2 The 2-3, 2 Pet 3 ... FytRobert, God's day to you. 1. Jesus will come again only after several events have come to past as stated in the bible.So, He will not come to-night, next week nor the week after? .... It depends on your view of prophecy. Some say all is fulfilled. I think the some events of the Matthew 24 haven't been fulfilled. I also believe that He is also waiting for the last person to be saved. (2 Pet 3:9) 2.After about 2000 years we are now in the midst of the events. ... Yes, we are in the midst of prophecy. I see 2 Peter as yet in the future, too. 3.May be another 2000 years hence,before Jesus comes again? ... Maybe, or it could be sooner or later. His time is different (2 Pet 3:8) 4.Human life on this earth is comparatively short and it is very likely that this generation will depart from this world much earlier than Jesus coming.In view of this, it is better to prepare oneself immediately and before death to walk the path of Jesus. Simply because we do not know the hour nor the day of our migration to...? ... We do not know (Matt 24:36). 5.So, in our attempt to bring in convertsour emphasis should be on our departure which is imminent rather than Jesus coming? ... Neither. It should be how we should live in preparation for both. 2 Thessalonians 3 talks about people being lazy and other things ... probably waiting for His return (see chapter 2). Searcher |
