GOODMORNING- THE SECOND COMING
Second Coming of Christ – No One Knows When
The Second Coming of Christ is plagued by many false teachings. Prediction books have even been written picking the exact day of Jesus’ return. These books may sell many copies, but they mislead their readers. There’s one guarantee: As soon as someone predicts the day or time of Jesus Christ’s second coming, that prediction is wrong. Why? Simply, only God the Father knows when it will be — Jesus doesn’t even know. Jesus told His disciples:
“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” “Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with the hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.” “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.” (Matthew 24:36, 40 & 42)
Second Coming of Christ – Signs for Keeping Watch
We could just shrug our shoulders and casually wait for the Second Coming of Christ. However, Jesus wants us to “keep watch.” A great way to keep watch is to know what the Bible reveals about upcoming events and compare those to what we see happening today. There are nearly 100 biblical passages discussing the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The key events can be summarized with the acrostic: S – E – C – O – N – D.
S…Sudden. As we saw above, no one but the Father knows when. However, we do know it will take place “as lightning.” Matthew 24:27 says, “For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.”
E…Essential. One of the foundations of the Christian faith is Jesus’ second coming. It is spoken of by Jesus and many others in the Bible. Jesus will physically come again for all His believers and for His final judgment. Unfortunately, some Christian cults teach that Christ “secretly” returned already. As you read what the Bible says about the Second Coming of Jesus, it will be obvious that it hasn’t happened yet.
C…Christ’s Final Judgment. The Bible declares that Jesus will be the final judge of the world (John 5:22, Acts 10:42 and 2Timothy 4:1). Some of the additional verses describing the second coming, resurrection of the dead, millennium, and final judgment are located in Acts 17:31, 1Thessalonians 4:13-5:11 and Hebrews 10:27.
O…Obvious. There are over 6 billion people on the planet. God only knows what percentage are truly Christians, but let’s use a conservative number like 10%. If this is true, over 600,000,000 people will vanish from the earth simultaneously according to Matthew 24:40. There will be no mistaking when Christ comes back for His Church!
N…No One Knows When. In Matthew 24:36, Jesus said only God the Father knows when. God is outside time. God already knows every prediction regarding Jesus’ return that has ever been or will ever be made. Since Jesus said that no one knows about that day but the Father, NO ONE KNOWS!
Second Coming of Christ – The “D” is for “Doubters”
As we get closer and closer to the Second Coming of Christ, there will be increasing and widespread doubt about whether Jesus even existed. People will also start wondering if God really exists and believers will leave the Christian faith (2 Thessalonians 2:1-4, 1 Timothy 4:1-2, and 2 Peter 2:1-3). Do you think we’re already seeing these signs?

After talks that his United States work permit was denied, approaching his upcoming tour, and that he is at odds with his Downsound Records ‘boss’, Joe Bogdanovich (after their recent reunion), Fantan Mojah is denying all those rumours which he said has been plaguing his career.
Speaking with the STAR Mojah said, “Rasta nuh inna di passa passa suh wah dem a try put up pon dem website nuh really matter enuh because nutten nuh guh suh. Me as a man cyaan get involved inna family affairs. Joe’s family business cyaan mix up inna business. A music mi come ya fi do suh a dat mi a do!”
troubling
He continued, “People inna di streets a ask mi how mi sign to Downsound Records an dem nah hear nutten from mi but dem mus know that wi a do the work for Downsound and also for other productions out there.”
He went on to address another issue that has been troubling him for some time now.
“Dem a seh mi guh embassy wah day an dem revoke mi visa,” said Mojah.
He added that this was not the case saying, “Mi have a ten-year visiting visa for America. Mi three-year work permit up wah day yah and wi put it in back fi renewal. All a dat in the process wid the lawyers and everything. Mi woulden even think fi fly guh America guh work pon mi visiting visa. Dem gi mi a work permit to work on and mi nah guh be doing nuh shows without it or pon mi visiting visa.”
Mojah said he sees no reason why his visa would have been revoked.
“Mi is a good citizen of Jamaica that do good reggae music. Why America woulda waan deny mi a visa? I’m not a terrorist or anything. I’m abiding by the US law. Dem neva deny mi nuh permit,” he said.
visa revoked
When contacted, Bogdanovich shared similar comments saying, “I don’t know anything about his visa being revoked. From my knowledge it has expired and is being renewed.”
He went on to say that all is well in the Downsound Records camp and he is very pleased with the work that they have been doing, especially the crowd reception of their performances at the recent Excellence in Music and Entertainment Awards (EME).
Fantan Mojah had recent performances at Follow Di Arrow and Spring Break which he said went extremely well and he has been extremely busy organising his Reggae In The Valley stage show set for this Saturday at the Appleton Sports Complex in St Elizabeth.
“The fans a tek to the music so big up all the disc jockeys and everyone who tek part inna mi career. Joe a di man, a him buss mi an mek people know bout mi,” laughed Mojah.
