WHEN WILL HE COME?

Luke 2:26-27
26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. NASU
** I’ve heard a lot of speculations about the return of Christ. Many have put dates on it and some have predicted different times of the year or ? what do I believe? I believe He is coming back. When? I hope today! I choose to live my life as if He will return each day I wake up. I mean, how can you go wrong with that type of lifestyle? I also know that Jesus said to us “occupy until I come.” So I just don’t go outside and look up everyday and wait for Him to show up. I occupy myself with things that will make Him happy when He comes back knowing that I was thinking about Him everyday. The day of the Lord’s return should not be a surprise to any of His followers. 1 Thess 5:4
4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief; NASU
Why? Because we expect Him any day and we live our lives as if today was the day. The downside to this is if you are an impatient person and after 4 years of expecting Him to come back, you get distracted thinking that He will not come back for a while. What happens is we forget we have a job to do and get our minds on the wrong things. We forget there is a world that is dying and people are going to hell every day and we are focused on why He has not come back for us. Believe me, if we can keep our minds on doing His work and rescuing people from an eternal hell then time flies so fast, before you know it we will see His face! It may or may not be through a rapture experience but we WILL see His face! And isn’t that what it’s all about in the first place? Have we forgot what we were in this for in the first place? HIM! We do what we do because He so loved us that He gave His life for us. How great it is to know that one day weather thru the rapture or that my time on earth is done, I will behold Him in all of His glory and will wrap my arms around Him and never let Him go! I can’t wait!
