Trust God Over Man’s Predictions
August 24th, 2015
Matthew 24:36-51
People have long predicted the time of the apocalypse, the end of the world, the second coming of Christ, judgment day, etc. The have developed convincing theories and prophecies based on anything from the Holy Bible to the Mayan calendar. Have any of these predictions ever come true? We’re still here, aren’t we?
In the days approaching the year 2000, the “Y2K” scare swept across the globe, with many people fearing not only a worldwide computer crash but also the apocalypse. In 2012, some suggested that the world would end on December 21st, since the Mayan calendar ended on that day. These dates arrived and passed. We’re still here!
As intelligent and educated as any of today’s “prophets” may be, they often overlook one critical flaw in their theories. The Bible says that no one knows when that day will be (Matthew 24:36). In fact, Jesus said that only the heavenly Father knows the day of His return. It’s good to know we belong to a God who has control over time. Trust in God, and be ready for Christ’s return, even if it’s today!
