What About The Return of Christ?

"But of that day and hour no one knows, no not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only." (Matthew 24:36) I am one that does not like to get caught up in the controversy over this subject. While we study the different millennial views, we lose sight of the fact that "no one knows" when Jesus is going to return for His church. And whether you believe in the Pre-Millennial view, the A-Millennial view, or the Post-Millennial view, etc., it is not as important as the Pro-Millennial view, and that is the view, that we are all for Jesus returning, and we are ready to go home with Him, when He comes. The Apostle Paul told the Christians at Thessalonica in his first letter to them: "For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night." (1 Thessalonians 5:2) We will not know when Jesus is coming, but perfectly we will know that His coming will come unexpectedly. The question that should be of serious consideration is; "Are you ready, right now, if Jesus should return for you?" Have you accepted Him as your Savior? When He returns, will you be one of the saints who will be meeting Him in the air? (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) While time is spent debating the various end-time views, let us not lose sight of the opportunities to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, with many who have not even placed their lives, in the saving arms of Jesus. As a Christian teacher, I would rather have us as Christians, be more prepared to share the Gospel, over being knowledgeable of end time events. Some may think that this is being narrow, but I believe it is being imperative! GP
