Is the resurrection coming soon?In: Bible Prophecy |
[Edit] |
Answer
The short answer is 'yes'. The long answer is He'd better come soon, because more and more things are spiralling out of the control of mankind in the world. Google something like "What are the signs of the times?" and follow it from there.
Answer
No, Christians believe that Jesus has already resurrected from the dead. Jesus' resurrection is what Christians celebrate during Easter.
If you mean if Jesus' return is coming soon, well then no one knows. Christians have been saying for hundreds of years that Christ is returning soon; he still hasn't shown up. Consider this, right after Christ's death the apostles were waiting for his return, which was 2,000 years ago.
If you are a person that takes Revelation literally, then I suppose you can follow the 'sign of the end times' but don't expect to calculate the exact day. And know that for hundreds of years people have connected the events of their day to the Bible and believed that Jesus was coming soon. It's important to note that like Nostradamus' prophecies, the "prophecies" of Revelation are so vague they could be applied to any natural disaster or event in time.
How many times have people given up everything in their life because they believe Jesus was coming? A lot. I suggest you find a hobby that you enjoy and stop worrying about the end of the world.
