The Second Coming or cookies & cake?
Thank you for your courage. I thought that I would respond to
your "easy going" approach to prophecy and to church attendance.
One thing you might consider is the fact that Christ has one church. Just
one! And another thought is the fact that it keeps the commandments
of God. [see Revelation 14:12].
To say that we should approach the second coming with statements like, "well, whatever floats your boat" seems to me like an approach that makes the second coming sound like cookies and cake.
The second coming is a serious matter. It is the end of time. God
does have an organization that has the "gift of prophecy", pastors, teachers,
and the such. It is not like Jesus told us; "Stay home and eat popcorn, you
know, whatever floats your boat."
I do not mean to sound harsh but in Noah's day only one boat was
floating. Those who sat around and ate popcorn had a rude awakening.
