GOODMORNING-THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST
Second Coming Of Christ
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?
FACEBOOK CUSSIN TEK LIFE
A fight that started on Facebook ended in bloodshed when a 22-year-old was stabbed to death in a Brooklyn housing project after an argument over $20 she lent her boyfriend’s sister for diapers, authorities said.
Kamisha Richards was attacked Monday at 10:35 p.m. near her home at the Cypress Hills Houses on Sutter Ave. in East New York, police said.
She was stabbed once in the chest, police said.
Richards was taken to Brookdale Hospital, where she was pronounced dead a short time later.
Police later caught the suspect Kayla Henriques, 18, who is the mother of an 11-month-old boy and lives in the same housing complex as the victim.
On Sunday night, Richards and Henriques had gotten into a heated war-of-words on Facebook.
In one message, Richards wrote: “I don’t give a f–k. … U know ya sister so its not just ova $20 its the principle so don’t make it seem like I’m goin n 4 $20 she kno wat she did and she real f–ked up … this aint the 1st time she did dum sh-t…F–K THESE NOSY PPL!!!!
In response, Henriques threatened Richards.
“Dnt try to expose me mama but I’m not tha type to thug it ova facebook see u wen u get frm wrk,” she wrote.
Henriques was arrested this morning and has been charged with second-degree murder.
A friend of both women said Henriques always needed help.
“The day before yesterday she came to me looking for some pampers,” she said. “She was always low on stuff. Kamisha used to help out with the baby and used to baby-sit. She was even helping to plan the baby’s birthday party in May.”
The friend, who did not want to be named, also said Richards “didn’t like people who took advantage of her.
“The whole thing stated when she loaned her $20 for pampers.”

Police last night confirmed that deejay Shawn Storm is a person of interest and is wanted in connection with a robbery incident in St Andrew.
Police said the deejay is being asked to turn himself over to the St Andrew North police or any police station as soon as possible.
Contacted last night, Crime Chief for the St Andrew North Division, Deputy Superintendent Altemorth ‘Para’ Campbell, was tightlipped about the allegations.
Pressed further Campbell would only reveal that the incident reportedly occurred while Storm and a group of men were allegedly en route from the Follow Di Arrow stage show on Sunday morning.
“He is being asked to turn himself in,” he said. “We need to speak with him as soon as possible.”
