Hi Mike,
I too can see your heart for JESUS and HIS coming.
In the words of my mentors Jon Courson,Grant Jefferies and
Steve Hadley who’s insight far exceeds my own I can only
reply:
Over the years, I have seen in my own life and in the lives
of others a vulnerability to instability when life gets
difficult, a tendency to ask, "Why, God? How come, Lord?
What's going on here?"
Yet, knowing we would invariably argue with Him if He
answered our questions, the Lord chooses to give us a peace
that passes our understanding (Php_4:7).
You won't find a single verse in Scripture that promises
we'll understand. Therefore, happy is the day when a man
says with Paul, "I only know in part" (see 1Co_13:12).
And as Jon always say and I concur “When the plain sense of
the Scripture makes sense, seek no other sense” and this has
really simplified my life and study of HIS word.
Blessings to you my brother as we wait for HIS soon calling
from the skies “COME UP HERE…….|”
Love in JESUS CHRIST
