Bible Note: Hi Shythiyl, Well said. You know, Jesus held the people of His time accountable to know the prophetic times they lived in. Luke 19 42 saying, "If you had known in this day, even you, the things which make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your eyes. 43 "For the days will come upon you when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, and surround you and hem you in on every side, 44 and they will level you to the ground and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation." But some knew, and they rejoiced, from His birth, Simeon, and Anna, to the prophesied day as they cried out "Hosanna!" Save now! Even so we are accountable to know our prophetic times. 1 Thess 5:4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief; And its not like we won't be able to know. Luke 21 31 "So you also, when you see these things happening, recognize that the kingdom of God is near. 32 "Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all things take place. 33 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away. 34 "Be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come on you suddenly like a trap; 35 for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth. And as I see the day drawing closer, as all the pieces are being moved into place, as the earth's convulsions increase, I rejoice, and my spirit cries out "Save now!", for I too believe He is coming soon! I also feel the heart of a song by Don Francisco, I don't recall the name: "The Father's voice is calling with an urgency I've never heard before, To come in from the darkness now before is finally time to close the door" Lift up your head, for your redemption is drawing near! Love in Christ, Mark |
