Then? When? When we all get to heaven? When is then? Ever notice how "Now is when, and then is when, but now is never then?"
Looking up don't mean you're going to heave, nor do any man know when he's returning.
while reading cgneustar site "
WHAT YEAR THE SECOND COMING WILL BE, THE MILLENNIAL SHABBATH OF THE YEAR 6000 YB, YOVELS, AND THE 1290+1335 DAYS OF DANIEL"
this was quoted, "
To foreshadow the length of time he appointed for this heaven and this earth to exist, 7,000 years total,". this isinteresting.
And if we used the analogy given, “
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Master as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day”.
We’re still not sure of the exact time because, Matthew 24:36 states, "But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only”.
Now if we use the 7,000 years scenario we have a slight problem. Time ran out for man on the cross, approx 6,000 have expired (according to some expert, NOT ME or MINE NUMBERS). But since we’re in grace Now, it’s been a little over 2,000 years since our Lord left, meaning it’s been only a couple of days… 2 days. a 1,000 for each day, so do we reset the clock? for the Lord been gone just a little over 2,000 years, so do we have 5,000 more to go? No, because we still don’t know. Supportive scripture, Romans 9:27 "Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
Romans 9:28 "For he will finish the work,
and cut [it] short in righteousness: because
a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
Romans 9:29 "And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha". well there is a remnabt that shall be saved. so the beat goes on. now how long? we still don’t know how short his work in righteousness is, so we still don’t know, look back to Matthew 24:36. "But of
that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only”.
So instead of anyone saying we he will return on......, just say what the Lord said, Revelation 22:12 "And, behold,
I come quickly; and my reward [is] with me, to give every man according as his work shall be”.
And we should be ready at all time for we know not the day nor the hour our Lord returns.
