Personally, it's because I look for Him to come by His spirit to correct/cleanse His church - so that they may be a true witness in the earth. What we have today is a watered down, unfaithful bride that doesn't show the nature of her Lord.

I am open to whatever the Judge of all the earth deems right, but His coming can be interpreted differently by those who wait for Him. I want more than anything for the world to know the One that loves them, and to see that what we've been pretending isn't at all what He's really like. I'm sorry if my posts have been interpreted as negative, but I want us to have the real thing so that we may give the real thing.

My sentiments exactly, elmer!! I can only base what I believe on what the Bible tells me, but I'm not so arrogant to believe that I have everything interpreted correctly. In fact, none of us do. I am also open to whatever the Judge of all the earth deems right.
