I enjoy looking at forecasts because I like to have a general idea of what the weather is going to be like for the week. But, this one is a little scary!!! Just for the sake of discussion, suppose the end of the world REALLY IS GOING TO BE HERE ON FRIDAY???? Or, to put it another way, what if you had only 2 DAYS TO LIVE??? Would you live those days differently? Why? Just suppose, for a moment, that EVERYTHING THE BIBLE SAYS IS REALLY TRUE!!! Next, consider the following passage along with those thoughts....
2 Thessalonians, Chapter 1
3 We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you towards one another abounds; 4 so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure. 5 This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer. 6 Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you, 7 and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, 8 giving vengeance to those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus, 9 who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might, 10 when he comes to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired among all those who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed) in that day.
I really do not know if the world is going to end on Friday!!! If it doesn't-great!!! If it does... I get to see Jesus!!! How about you?????? Or will you just change the channel to get a second opinion??
