The End is Near, Are You Ready?
We are to be on guard, and alert constantly for the return of Christ. Neither the Angels or even Jesus Himself know the exact time or day of the return of Christ, when He comes to get His church from the earth. As Jesus is the head, and we are the body of Christ, and because we have the mind of Christ (1Corinthians 2:16) we could possibly tap into when He will return if He knew. The bible says no one knows the hour of His return. If Father God told Jesus, we being the body of Christ would have insight to it (Mark 13:32). The Idea is to live ready, always seeking the Lord’s approval in all we do. There’s a parable of the ten virgins in the Bible who were asked to come to the great marriage feast (to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior, is today’s invite). Five of the women did not prepare by having enough oil in their lamps. So as the five went out to get oil for their lamps so they’d be ready for the great wedding day, the bridegroom returned. Only the other five who were ready went in with the bridegroom. The door was shut to the others who were not ready. This parable is indicative of the return of Christ. Are you ready or are you trying to get ready for when the bridegroom returns. We should be ready at all times, be on guard and be alert, because all the signs of His return are on the table like never before. Look around you, things on planet earth are at their worst like never before in the history of mankind. Don’t be like the five foolishness women who were not ready.
