Matthew 25
1Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
{{4But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.}}
5While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. note verse 4 the wise took oil in vessels with THEIR lamps--they wanted to be sure they was ready-- so be prepared live like any day hour min could be the day! thats what matters![]()
According to the Bible, we have to live our lives like Jesus is coming soon (whether He is or not). Here are a few scriptures:
Luke 21: 34 Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. For it will come upon all those who live on the face of the whole earth. Be ALWAYS on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.
1 Thessalonians 5:1-3 Now brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, Peace and safety, destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
Consider HIM who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lost heart.
Hebrews 12:3
Yes, based on the going's on in the world, it would seem the time is short!

Yes I beleive that we are in the very very last days and then we will see our Lord returning this time in the skies where all can see Him![]()
We have no way of knowing when He will return, but we know He will. I'm "Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ." Titus 2:13
Secure in Christ--indwelt by the Holy Spirit.
I did some research on the internet about the signs of the end as Jesus stated. eg earthquakes, famine, pestilence, wars etc. There has been a dramitic increase in all of these in the last century and the increase continues. It could be anytime![]()
If we disagree , at least one of us is wrong!
Gibby, you are on the right track. We only need to understand Matthew 24, to know that time is short. I suspect things of this world to get much worse in the days ahead. We can rest assured that the LORD knows HIS CHILDREN, and will watch over us, even through these dark days. JESUS remains the LIGHT of the WORLD. Praying the WORLD will turn to HIM, before it is too late.
Psalms 40:1 I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. 2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. 3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
