Subject: Years of Silence? |
Bible Note: Greetings Searcher! The following is my personal opinion: Presuming that we are indeed living in these "last days," I'm not equating but rather comparing the 400 years of silence prior to the First Advent with the 400 years of the spread of the Gospel prior to the Second Coming of Christ. Reference to Matthew 24:14. It concerns me that our mainline churches have been negligent in educating their congregants about the Second Coming of Christ. The promised wrath and judgment of God to be brought upon this world is a sobering awareness that should serve as a motivator for believers to become more fervently engaged in personal evangelism and discipleship. I, for one, do not want to be ashamed at His appearing! Mommapbs |
