St. Matthew, Chapter 24, verse: 30c; The Tribes on earth.

 Our paragraph topic is:  (Darkening of sun and moon) Part 7. 

How do we comprehend what is being given us in the Bible?  How do we accept, make sense of, the prophecies that we read about in this chapter that Christ tells us will happen in the end of days.  This was two thousand years ago since he lived.  His words were written many, many years ago.  Are his words real?  Can we believe them to be true?  How do we accept them in our day and time?  How do we make sense of them?

Man has come a long way since the time of Christ.  He has advanced in many ways to provide for himself and his people in countless inventions to imporve life.  Transportation, education, medical improvements, lifestyle changes, housing, government, travel, food distribution, construction and many other areas that were not available two thousand years ago.  How can we believe that in our improved state of life the tribulations described will happen to us.  Is it fiction or is it prediction of that which is real to come?

What will convince us that the words Christ spoke are real?  What will help us to accept them as truth?  Do we have to wait, to see, to believe?  Or can we believe that Christ is the truth and his words are real?  He has said:  "And then will all tribes of the earth mourn."   They will see the Son of Man in heaven.   

How can we make sense of it all?  Do we deny it or accept it?  Do we rationalize it in an attempt to understand and accept or do we truly believe what is given us?  What is a leap of faith?  Is it true that faith opens the heart to the knowlesge and love of God?  One can only beleive to see, to know, to understand.  Christ said that there is power in prayer.   If we ask to know him, if we ask to seek him, if we knock to have the door of faith open to us, will we really find the truth? 

Read the sign of the times! Read the Highlighted New Testament Bible and lift the scales from your eyes that you may see, that you may know, that you may find the truth of who you are in Christ. Read it as though you would read a good book, from cover to cover, and see for yourself.  Do not study it in parts reading one passage and then skipping to another, but read it for understanding. Read it for knowledge. Read it for faith. Read it that your eyes may be opened, that your ears may hear, that your heart may be filled with the light of Christ .   The Holy Spirit awaits you. Christ seeks to know you. Open the door and let him in.

St. Matthew, Chapter 24, verse: 30b; The Son of Man.

 Our paragraph topic is:  (Darkening of sun and moon) Part 6. 

It is foretold for all to know, for all to read, for all to believe if they choose to believe.  We live in a world that does not convey a message of truth.  We live in a world apart from the truth, a world of our own making that allows us to believe as we choose.  What we believe is given to us by those who make the choices for us and provide those choices that we might accept them as truths.  Those choices makes us feel a part of the norm, a part of the accepted, a part of the crowd, not outside of it, and therefore we are accepted.

Our acceptance of the norm means not truly believing in that which is foretold as the outcome of our future, the truth of who we are.  Christ, as the ultimate fortune teller has left us a book of knowledge.  He has given us a history of his life here on earth.  He has left us an example of love and peace and patience of how we should become in life.  His example is our blueprint of what we are.  He tells us the moon will not give her light and the stars will fall from the heaven and then will appear the sign of the:  "Son of Man in heaven."  

Do you believe or do you accept the norm?

St. Matthew, Chapter 24, verse: 30a; The Sign.

Our paragraph topic is:  (Darkening of sun and moon) Part 5.  

What will happen after the tribulation of the last days, after all the destruction and chaos?  What will come next?  Christ tells us that the sun will not shine and the moon will no longer give up its night light.  He says that the heavens will be shaken and the stars will fall from the sky.  There will be total darkness.  Man will only be able to see by his own created neon light.  Batteries and electrical energy will be the source of power to bring forth light into the world in those places that have the ability to do so.  

Otherwise there will be darkness and the coming of the Son of Man will be light upon the sky like the morning sun.  Christ  says:  "And then will appear the sign."  It will be for all to see, all around the world, written upon the sky.  Look up!  See the sign!  Know that he is coming!  It has been foretold!  Christ the King is coming to save those that believe in him.

Do you believe what is written?  Do you know who you are?  Are you a child of God or a child of the flesh?  What are you made of:  flesh and bone or spirit and truth?  The soul cries out for truth.  It wants you to believe.  It wants you to know.  It wants you to see and to be assured that it is real.  Can it be so?  Yes it can!
