WHEN
?
Only
GOD KNOWS
ÒTOP
SECRET OF THE AGESÓ
ÒDONÕT EVEN ASK!Ó
Why
God wonÕt tell,
The
Bible predicts the Nativity of Christ.
The Events of His life
His
Crucifixion and His death
His
resurrection and His ascension!
With
the promise of and the manner of His return.
Only the mind of God holds the secret of WHEN?
(Ask yourself) #1 #2 #3
#
1WHY DO YOU WANT TO KNOW!
#2 What would you do differently, if
you did know?
#3
Would that please God?
A number of Bible references speak
to this. Here we list a few.
Enough to show what God expects of
us.

KEEP
THE FAITH
WATCH AND WAIT - - - - - - -
Jesus spoke to this over 2,000 years
ago and counting.
Each generation asks, will this be the time? Will we live to see it? We are reminded: The promise is that He will come. Not that
we will see our next birthday, nor Christmas, but perhaps today we shall see
Him, face to face!
If there is something you want to say, a thank you, that you think
appropriate, or an apology note to write, do it now.
That is why God doesnÕt set a date or tell us what day it is to be.
Mean
time, we await His promised return.
Through the centuries, countless men have predicted His return, each one has been wrong. In our
time, followers of these men have left their dead bodies in layered piles. For
others to bury.
Read what Jesus said when His
Disciples asked the timeless question.
ÒIt is not for you to know about dates or times, which the Father has set
within His own controlÓ ACTS 1:7- 8
But about that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven,
not even the .Son; only the Father Matt:24, 16
ÒWe are arrogantly wrong, to ask.Ó
(nw)
Jesus saysÓ Happy that servant
who is found at his task, when his master comes.Ó Hold yourselves, ready,
therefore, because the Son of Man will come at the time you least expect
HimÓ. Matt 24:44
The obvious lesson, for us is simple, direct and imperative.Ó Let us be
perpetually ready for His return, with our Faith intact.Ó nw

It follows that the Christian should not try to out guess God. His time is better spent taking JesusÕ
request to Keep the Faith as we wait for ChristÕs return.
