A brief word...


....according to Acts 2:17 the last days began at Pentecost, when the Church was founded. No one knows how long it will last. Jesus specifically told the apostles it wasn't their business to know. Acts 1:7.

All who have ignored this clear counsel have been proven wrong and only bring the Good News into disrepute.

It's natural to look at modern moral abominations and
wonder how long it will continue. But making predictions and linking political leaders with them is not only a waste of time, but showing disrespect for the government, which Christians are commanded not to do. Titus 3:1, 2 among other texts. (This is especially hard for me, a born lampooner.)

There were about 400 years of silence between when Jacob and his family went down to Egypt and when Yahweh delivered the Jews through Moses.

There was about the same length of time from when Malachi was written to when John the Baptist appeared announcing the Messiah. No prophetic proclamations in between.

It's been nearly 2000 years since the Apostle John died at the end of the 1st century.

But this is the big one. It'll happen suddenly and take everyone by surprise...just like the flood, and Sodom and Gomorrah.
