Imminence of the Rapture!

When something is imminent it can happen anytime--nothing has to 

come first, no prophetic events. The generation that was alive when 

Jesus left was a generation that looked for His return. We tend to think 

that certain prophecies have to be fulfilled and so we feel that His 

coming is not soon. “Besides, it has been all these years and no 

one has been right, so why should I believe that He might come today? 

What difference does it make anyway?”

Well, as always, I want to see what scripture has to say:

“...waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our

great God and Savior Jesus Christ.” (Titus 2:13)

“Therefore, preparing your minds for action, being sober-minded,

set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at 

the revelation of Jesus Christ.”  (I Peter 1:13)

“Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has

not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall 

be like him, because we shall see him as he is. Everyone who

thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.” (I John 3:2,3)

“Waiting for the blessed hope...'" I love this verse because it comes

in the now. I live in “the now” and I wait in “the now.”  And, yes, He

lives in me “in the now,” however, there is going to come a day when

He appears to us on earth “in the now.” Glorious day!
