God gave us the gift of life and to spend it obsessing with its end is not how he intended. We are to bask in the freedom Jesus gave us and the wonderful life God has given us.

Sometimes I wonder if we pray for understanding when we read scriptures. The bible has given us a rough time for the coming of the saviour and the coming of God the Father himself. Yet in our blindfolded religious piety we see only what we wish to see, hear only what we wanna hear and therefore we crucify Christ the 2nd time. For your information Christ had come, God has equally come and all the angels are also here on earth. The kingdom of God has been established on earth ad a mustard seed audit shall grow and put down other worldly kingdoms. If you keep looking up till eternity nobody will drop from the skies. God does not do things as we men think and he will not wait for your approval to do what he need to do.

For all the real Christians out there remember that till today the Jews are still expecting the Messiah. When he came, they said he wad not the one and refused to accept him. Did their non acceptance prevent his work? Today, God is still not now ed or accepted by mankind to fulfill the scriptures in Luke 17.

The Bible says that only the Father knows when His Son, Jesus Christ will return, but this website does?

Christ said only his Father knew the time for the destruction of the world or the 'end of the world'. His coming was stated in scripture.

The Bible says in Matthew chapter 24, no-one knows the day and the hour. (of what? Of the Rapture!)

“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.” (Matthew 24 verse:36-39).

It must be noted that the "coming of the Son of Man" definitely pertains to the Rapture in this context and not to the Second coming. The reason why we can draw this conclusion is that we read, " people are eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage" in a word they live their everyday life in "peace and safety" and then "Sudden Destruction" comes upon them.
Just before the second coming of Christ, no-one will be able to live their everyday life, no-one will be able to eat and drink, marry and give in marriage as the world will already be in GREAT TERROR!
By the time Jesus comes the second time the Kingdom of the Beast will have been in full power for three and a half years. thus the day he returns just can't be an average day! Jesus must be talking about the first stage of his coming (the Rapture) which will occur on an average day. IT COULD BE TOMORROW!

as far as the second coming goes, we received signs to know it. now i mean heavenly signs - THE LUNAR TETRADS!!! look, when they occured/will occur. plus we were allowed to be able to identify the first day of the tribulation and the antichrist so we have enough information to claim that the tribulation concludes on 23 September 2015.

Of the "Rapture"? Well, I definitely believe in the Second Coming of Christ, which is biblical. The "Rapture," on the other hand, is a doctrine that did not even exist until the Protestant Reformation.

I sure hope you're still posting on September 24, 2015. I will thoroughly enjoy watching you eat your words. (By the way, do you belong to a church that teaches this, or is this just what you personally believe?)
