Bible Note: John Your right and thank you for the correction, I should not have used so much gusto in my response. I should have said, as things are shaping up now it looks like Islam and in particular the Islamic nations to the north of Israel may play a major role in 'End Time' prophecy, should the rapture and second coming of Christ occur in the near future. However I will go out on the limb and state quite emphatically each day brings us one day closer to Jesus’ return. :-) I think you have to admit things in the Middle East are looking more and more like buds on tress, the violence we see has an appearance of a red sky. Maybe the church should think more about the future, of the second coming, of the tribulation. The primitive church thought more about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ than about death or about heaven. The early Christians were looking not for a cleft in the ground called a grave but for a cleavage in the sky called Glory. They were watching not for the undertaker but for the uppertaker. -- Alexander Maclaren John again I receive and thank you for that correction. By the way long story short I finally got the book "Losing Our Virtue" EdB |
