Are you scared?
Posted : 20 May, 2011 07:32 PM

According to some, the rapture will occur tomorrow.

I don't take much stock in that because I believe that the Bible is clear about us not being able to predict the date of Christ's return.

However, it does make me wonder if I am ready.

Sure, I've accepted Christ as my savior. I've said the prayer. I know right from wrong. I do the best I can to follow His commandments. I pray in the evenings, and I focus on Him and consider his will and his wisdom when I need to make dangerous choices.



What I don't do is read the Bible enough. I don't have much of it memorized, at all. Not even Psalms 23, and I know atheists who know that one.

Although I do not believe Jesus will arrive tomorrow, I must accept that he could come tomorrow. And if not, the 22nd is definitely a possibility (because nobody is saying that that is the date he will return).

So I have a little bit of the fear of the Lord in me right now. I doubt anything will happen tomorrow, but I am still second guessing my strength as a Christian and the strength of my relationship with God through the only piece of him that I have in my possession, the Holy Bible.

So I've been scoping out more books to read and thinking of doing my own personal Bible study, just me and God, not me and a crew of other folks. I want to make sure that I am ready. I know I'm a sinner and hopelessly damned without Jesus, but I don't always say, "be all that you can be anyway, tinyfrog."

I usually meekly say, "Christ has your back! Go do something stupid!"

I mean, that's not exactly the case, but maybe you get the point. Maybe you don't.



Whatever your beliefs about the 5/21 apocalypse prediction, has it caused you to reassess your walk with God?

Dennis God has always been blessing me pray he's been doing the same for u.



If any man or woman thinks he knows the return of Jesus they are dead wrong and the Holy Bible proves so.



It's our love....our faith in Jesus that gets us to Heaven. Jesus plus nothing gets u to Heaven. Ur vain works never earns us slavation lest any man should boast.



Naturally when u love Jesus ur going to want to please him and repent of sin and do good works...but don't be legalist highminded like the Pharisees bragging on our works eating our way to Heaven.



I have two words for u....wrong answer. Jesus is our only way to Heaven. If u don't have a personal relationship with him now....time is ticking...email me if ur a girl and a brother on here if ur a man.

Jesus loves u all.
