For years some insisted that the end of time and Jesus return was coming soon.

It it? Of that day and of that hour knoweth no man. Mt. 24:36

The 1880's saw mathematical equations relative to the pyramids
The 1914 saw prophetic words connected with WW1
The 40's saw them connect with WW2
In the 1970's
Hal Lindsey....the late great planet earth
Movie..... a thief in the night
The ten nations of the common market
Prophets have for ever told of the end of time and the return of Christ

When is the end of time? When is the return of Christ? Mt. 24:36
You can get lost in the stuff

Evangel, book learning, pre trib, post trib and what is it really about?
Be filled with his love
Do the work of God

So this is the Point of message.....
You will hear them say it is over
Surprised to hear Falwell go there
Much emotion can be raised about the end of time
I will not be among them
When is the hour? Mt. 24:36

Beware of those who lead you falsely....
Beware of those who would have you sell your homes,
give to their ministries, and then wait on a mountain top
Beware of those who would scare you
Do not follow the secret knowledge of the end of time.
Follow the fruits of Christ in your life

To some he will say ....I never knew yout
And look at what they were doing.

That means more than doing good works
It means more than being a good person....a moral person
It means that we must do the work of Christ, to the glory of Christ


For those who choose to seek out, and be filled with his love, today,
tomorrow, this year, next year, every day that God gives us, we will be ready.

Let us strive to fulfill his will and his purpose for us on this earth
Spend your time on the things that matter.
-be a loving friend
-be a caring spouse
-be a committed parent
- be filled with the love of Christ
If we do that, no matter when it is...we will be ready for his return.
