I do not know when Christ is coming back. No one knows. But I do think the environment is getting more and more to the point where we can look for his return.

Tragically, some people believe they are going to heaven when they die just because a few drops of water were sprinkled over their heads a few weeks after their birth. They have no personal faith, have never made a personal decision, and are banking on a hollow ceremony to save them. How absurd.

We have the freedom to pray and the freedom to love the God of our heart. And we have been forgiven by the only one who could condemn us. We are truly free.

Our tendency is to be converted to church and not to Christ.

You can do something no one else can do in a fashion no one else can do it.

Engage with the Bible. Meditate on it day and night. Think and rethink about God's Word. Let it be your guide. Make it your go-to book for questions. Let it be the ultimate authority in your life.

I think you have to be very careful about any story that puffs you up.
