In The Days of These Kings. Part [8] 04/01/2026 (Morning thought)

Matthew 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go you out to meet him.

The reason why this is raised as an issue is because, in the Bible, the second coming of Christ is always described as occurring suddenly, at midnight, at the break of day, or at a time when most of this earth’s populations, including the righteous, would not be expecting it. It is thus described over and over again to the point where the Christian should stand up and take note. God teaches us by repetition.

Thus, if you were to see something in the scripture being repeated over and over again it just means that God is trying to get our attention on some very important matter. So, let us take a few examples from the Scriptures, before we proceed with the study. What we would be looking for in particular is the recurring element of surprise, and suddenness, as pertains to Christ’s coming kingdom, and the ultimate collapsing of the last earthly kingdom standing.

It is worthy of note that when The Lord came the first time, He also came by night, so it should come as no shock that His second coming will happen at a time when most people are not expecting it. It may now be one minute to midnight, and persons might not know it. Luke 2:8 And there were in the same country some shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

Luke 2:9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

In The Days of These Kings. Part [7] 04/01/2026 (Evening thought)

Psalms 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. 2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.

[Last Day Events pp 29] In the annals of human history, the growth of nations, the rise and fall of empires, appear as if dependent on the will and prowess of man; the shaping of events seems, to a great degree to be determined by power, ambition, or caprice. But in the Word of God the curtain is drawn aside, and we behold, above, behind, and through all the play and counterplay of human interest and power and passions, the agencies of the All-merciful One, silently, patiently working out the counsels of His own will.

This does not mean that there is an agreement with what is transpiring, it is just an acknowledgement of the facts, that prophecies are unfolding according to plan, even as we speak, and thus the Christian must position himself/herself intelligently, so as to be on the winning side, even The Lord’s side. Thus, whereas all previous kingdoms fell by war and bloodshed by conspiracy and stratagem, the last of these kingdoms, and the remnants of all four would be taken down by the God of heaven personally.

And its scheduled collapse will be something out of this world, the likes of which persons have never seen before. The Lord refers to it as His strange act. We are now much closer to this happening, and it is something worth considering, that some of us living today, possibly might not have opportunity to retire. That is how serious the prophecy might turn out to be. We do not know for sure, but it is quite possible.

Matthew 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
