   I wouldn't want to venture a guess, but we are all only a heartbeat away from eternity in reality. We know by studying prophecy in the book of Daniel that we are living in the final moments of earth's history as we know it since all has come to pass right down to present day and the time of the clay and iron mixed feet of King Nubuchadnezzar's dream statue. Even so, no man knows the day or hour and it could still be many years before Christ's return. On the other hand, God controls all events and He could decide to allow events to speed up considerably and bring about the end sooner than we think possible. One thing is certain, he will come as a thief, when we least expect it, so we need to be ready at all times and not be as the foolish virgins.

   He will come in the hour we think not. If Jesus were answering this poll is that not what He would say?

   He left us signs to tell us that he is coming and these are being fulfilled now. It has been estimated that at the current rate that the world population is increasing, the world will not be able to sustain everyone within twenty years. People are living longer and more are being born. When shortages occur, chaos will ensue so surely he cometh soon!

   We are living in the very last days of earth's history. The earth is waxing old. We have been told by Ellen G . White that Jesus could have come in her day, but the church was not ready.
   Each of us does not know the day or hour we might die and the 2nd coming then would be the next thing we'd know.
   We need to live our lives as if Jesus could come today while occupying until He comes.

   We musn't think of the "By n By" as a pie in the Sky. We must enjoy a piece in our plate, while we wait.

   Jesus said that no one knows the day or hour of his coming. In the Greek vernacular, this also includes month, year, decade, century, and millenium. Jesus said that even He didn't know the time. For anyone to presume to know or guess when Jesus will come is boarding on, If not is, blasphemy. You are saying you know more than Jesus and that God revealed something to you that He didn't reveal to His Son.

   No one know that hour but God himself. It is rubbish conversation to spend time discussing it. If He come today, tomorrow or in 1000 years...don't matter to me. I know that He is coming.

   No one knows the day or hour but my Father only, (Jesus said). But somehow his coming seems close. Everywhere we look, evil has increased and dragged this world into a more darker tune. It will be amazing to know that when evil has exceeded its boundries, and all those who remain faithful during this time continues to trust in their redeemer, will be a great slap in the devils face. No matter how much he throws at them they will be loyal to their Savior. Jesus come soon, so we can walk with you throughout eternity.

   If people think the church is lax now - how much more lax would it be if we knew Jesus wasn't going to return until, as I recently heard, May 21, 2011 ?!?!? Rather than discuss the possibility of when, we should be spending our time preparing to meet our best Friend. If we put off bettering our relationship with Jesus now, He WILL come as a thief.

    All we know is that he will come like a theif in the night, when the world is in it's darkest hour, when the people are so busy of the worldly things. So, right now, I'm practicing to think of Him even when I am so busy with my work but, I might be caught off guard. IIt's not easy to keep yourself guarded all the time to be tuned in to Him. We have to be very vigilant. Easy said than done. We just have to think like He is coming tomorrow so we should prepare ourselves today to meet Him.

    Like the bible says no one knows the day or the hour. All that I suggest is that we all should be getting ready for that day because we dont know when he will come. All the signs are here and until every body has a chance to know about him,he will come.
12. quote 18.04.2008 09:34
    he will come when the time is right .when he is ready for who is ready and no matter how ready so ha ha or more seriously we don't know so you better be ready
13. quote 19.04.2008 17:12
    the bible say he will come as a thief in the night, no one knows when he will come. the bible also says that gospel has to be preached to all the world and then shall the end come, I don't think that has happen as yet.

    Does it matter? After I breath my last breath, that's when my next cognitive moment will be Christ's appearing. Doesn't matter if I waited 5 years, or 500. However, the uniting of the world's religions is gaining speed, the master deceiver's plans are coming together. The time to be bold for Christ is now, before the lost's doom is sealed.

    Do I think the Lord is coming soon?? Most definitely. But I have said that for all the years I have been a member of this church (since 1970). Is my faith weaker because He has not come?? NO. If we are ready NOW....then it really doesnt matter WHEN He comes.

    Matt 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angel of heaven, but my Father only. Everything in the Bible must be taken in context. Often, the Bible says something that isn't meant for everyone. Matthew 25 tells the story of the foolish virgins and the wise virgins, obviously a metaphor for those who are of God and those who are not. When the foolish virgins come to God asking something of Him, He says: "Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh." The Bible is directing the "you know not the day nor the hour" thing to those who are not keeping watch! Luke 12 gives a very similar story, about the good servant and the evil servant, where the good servant is of God and the evil servant is not of God. Peter then asks, "Who is this parable being spoken to - us, or everyone?" The Lord replies: "But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken; The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware..." The "day or hour that no one knows" is being directed not to His followers, but to the unsaved, the people who are too caught up in the cares of this life to notice these things. God did not leave his people totally in the dark as to when He shall return. And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. - Luke 21:29-32. The Parable of the Fig Tree represents the restoration of Israel. He says that the generation that sees this fulfilled will not pass away (i.e. die completely) before Jesus returns. Israel was restored as a nation in 1948. Therefore, we know that this is the generation of the Second Coming. Daniel 12:9, 10 - "And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand." This passage tells us that the knowledge of prophecy and the end times will not be known by humans until the time of the end.

    The person above me is completely correct.

    The Lord will come when all of prophecy has been fulfilled. Right now it sure appears that the 'chess pieces' here are on are aligning up straight away and pointing directly to the coming conflicts that we have been waiting for. Now is time to make sure you are saved and sanctified and ready to meet your maker... and take as many people with you as you can. I am totally amazed at how many people believe these popular 'fables' and refuse to look at the Bible. But the Bible said that that would happen.

    In as far as this question is concerned, I will neither guess nor suggest. The bible is clear, that is not revealed unto man to know the time nor the hour, but only that we should know the signs of the times. If there is one thing that is certain every second brings us closer to the inevitable, his imminent return. What we should concentrate on is our readiness to meet him whenever the event unfolds rather than when. Death nay overtake most of us before that glorious day, so let us be faithful and wait. The signs all indicate his coming is nearer than when we first believe, and that he will soon make his appearance. Soon can be in a few more seconds or another 6,000 years. Like he ask peter on anther issue, What's it to you, so too I ask myself, 'What's it to you if he should come today or tomorrow? Simple be ready now and it will matter not when he makes his appearing.
