Suppose God would decide to tell us what time Jesus’ Second Coming will be. Let’s say he’d say Sunday, March 30th, 2020, at one a.m.

Well, let’s see. At one a.m. Sunday on that date in Alaska, it would be 11 p.m. Saturday, across the Bering Sea, over in Russia. and depending on where you were at the time, it would be any of the 24 hours on the clock. six p.m. here in the Midwest.

Now I’ve never thought about that before, and so if I have the thing backwards, you still get the point. Remember, when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in the Hawaiian Islands, it was Sunday morning, December 7th , but back in Japan, it was Saturday, December 6th. So who’s right. Well, both are right. I said I’d never thought about it before, but come to think of it, I’ve noted that on New Year’s Eve at midnight in New York, we’re sitting around waiting, because it’s only 11 p.m. here in Missouri. And 10 p.m. in Colorado and 9 p.m. in California, and two or so out in the Hawaiian Islands. That’s why the Hawaiians feel cheated when we’ve named a new president here in the United States, and the polls are just closing out there in the Islands.

Are you tired of this by now? I don’t blame you. And just don’t worry about when Christ will make His Second Coming. Just be ready. It’s as simple as that, because when it happens, no one will be looking at the clock to save it for posterity, because time will be no more. With all that will happen during that space, there’ll be a new Heaven and a new earth. Read about those things in the last two chapters of the Book of Revelation in the Bible. And some things there, apparently God doesn’t intend for us to understand completely until His time. Just be ready.

And the way to do that is to give your heart to Christ now, and ask Him to help you stick with it. Then it doesn’t matter whether you go to meet Him in the air at that Second Coming, or when you pass out of this life as we all are destined to do, as the alternative. See? No problem, if you do it right.
