AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Peter 3:8 ¶ Nevertheless, do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like one day. [Ps 90:4] |
Subject: 1 day is 1000 years, why? |
Bible Note: The problem is that it could be 20 thousand more years till Christ comes, no one knows! I hope not, but it could be, then your calculation is shot down. We have enough Scripture that is plain to understand about Christ return with out trying to second-guess or change a primary interpretation to try and mean something it doesn't. There have been numbers of people that have tried to calculate when Christ would return and they fund themselves huddled together on the top of some mountain the day after their great prediction half frozen and dumbfounded with white sheets on. So much for their witness for the Lord after a dumb stunt like that; they have just been neutralized by the adversary. Now no one with half a brain would ever listen to their message about salvation in Christ even though that message is true and without flaws. I am not saying this to be critical or that that might be your intent, I am just saying be careful or you might be opening up a can of worms for yourself. In love CDBJ |
