Jesus Wants Us to Prepare for His Soon Return ㅡ
“The great day of the Lord is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the Lord: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.” (Zephaniah 1:14)
The nations are in unrest. Times of perplexity are upon us.
The waves of the sea are roaring; men’s hearts are failing them for fear and for expectation of those things that are coming upon the earth; but those who believe on the Son of God will hear His voice amid the storm, saying, “It is I; be not afraid”....
We see the world lying in wickedness and apostasy. Rebellion to the commandments of God seems almost universal.
Amid the tumult of excitement with confusion in every place, there is a work to be done in the world.
All heaven is astir, engaged in preparing for the day of God’s vengeance, the day of Zion’s deliverance.
The time of tarrying is almost ended. The pilgrims and strangers who have so long been seeking a better country are almost home.
Rapidly we are nearing the time when Christ will come to gather His redeemed to Himself.
(Evangelism 18, 219)
