Coming of The Lord 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17

Message of The Bible Christ is coming Christ has come Christ will come again

Wrong Conclusions Is Immediate Promise Untrue 2 Thessalonians 2:2 Promise Untrue 2 Peter 3:3,4 Will come, but plenty of time 2 Peter 3:10 Matthew 24:42,43; 25:13

Wrong Conclusions Already past 2 Timothy 2:18 2 Peter 3:10 “Prophecy found its complete fulfillment in the second coming of Christ, and now may be regarded as closed and consummated.” Max King in “The Spirit of Prophecy” (p. 137) 2 Timothy 2:18 2 Peter 3:10

Will It Be Soon? Songs we sing suggest such We don’t know, but: Romans 13:11,12 1 Peter 4:7 James 5:7,8 Revelation 22:20

Why View As At Hand? Brevity of life God doesn’t view time as we do James 4:14 Philippians 1:23 God doesn’t view time as we do 2 Peter 3:8

What Must I Do To Be Saved? Hear the gospel (Romans 10:17) Believe Jesus is Christ (Acts 8:37) Repent of your sins (Acts 17:30) Confess faith in Christ (Matthew 10:32) Baptized for remission of sins (Acts 2:38) Faithful unto death (Revelation 2:10)
