Our paragraph topic is: (The sign of the last day) Part 8.
How is it that we have these words from Christ and yet do not understand their meaning. Their literal meaning is plain to see but what do we comprehend from their figurative meaning? Is there more to understand? Are we missing the truth of what is being said? Christ often spoke in parables. He said: "To him who has shall be given, and he shall have abundance, but from him who does not have even that which he has shall be taken away."
Do we have? Or do we not have? That is the question that we should ask ourselves. Can we understand the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven that we may have abundance? Abundance where? Here on earth or in heaven. Which do we want? Which do we desire?
Christ tells us: "For as the lightning comes forth from the east and shines even to the west," the same will happen when he comes on the last day. All will know and see, as they see the lightning coming forth. He will come forth for all to see and know.
There will be no hidden mysteries, no secret meetings no press conferences, no announcements, all will know, and all will see what is plain to see as the lightning in the sky. His coming will be on the last day. He told his disciples, and he gives us his message now for all to know and see. Those who desire to know will see and believe. For some have and some have not. And for those who have they will have abundance.
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.
