Hello @Hitch,

I have no idea when. None whatsoever. I look at the times, and the events taking place around me, and I feel it must be soon: but yet there is still much to be done too, I feel. No man knows the day or the hour, we have to leave it with the Lord, and be ready.

It is not the 'coming' of the risen Lord that I look for: but His 'appearing' in glory, immediately prior to that, for that is when the church which is His body will be manifested with Him there.

' If ye then be risen with Christ,
seek those things which are above,
where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
When Christ, Who is our life, shall appear,
then shall ye also appear with Him in glory.'
(Col 3:1-4)

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris

That's far better than screaming SOON !!! then being unwilling to define the term .
