SECOND COMING
OF CHRIST
Or the Eleventh Hour
and Last Gospel
150tii Thousand
(Concluded.)
lie doctrine of the Imminence of
C mist's second commit is so .ill impor
tant that the Holy .Spirit had it ie
corded about three hundred and
eighteen times in the New Testament.
When the declples asked Jesus, "When
shall these thingh be? And what shall
he the sign of Thy coming?" (Matt
24:3) Jesus did not reprove them for
asking, neither did He reply that it
was not for them to know; He defi
nitely answered their questions. He
said false Christs would come in His
Name. Well, there are abooit forty per
sons in the world today who claim
to be Christ, so this prophecy is ful
filled. lie also said there would he
earthquakes in divers places. Scien
tists tell ns that in the last three years
every land has felt the tremer of
earthquakes. Jesus also prophesied
famines and wars preceding Ills conn
ing. Over seventy million people have
recently suffered or are suffering from
famines in different parts of the world.
Thirty million in Russia, twenty mil
lion in India, twelve million in the war
stricken areas of Kurope and millions
in China. As for wars, the present
bloody war that is laying waste Europe
is a striking fulfillment of the Script
ure. God’s word lins always been ful
filled in the past and is now being fill
tilled just like dock work. “U hen
they shall say, •Peace and safety:’
then sudden destruction eomnieth upon
them.” "! Thess. 5:3. With the found
ation of the peace temple at The
Hague, the A agio-Boer war broke out.
followed by the Russdan-Japanese
war, then Italy's war with Turkey,
and now nearly all Europe, is In arms.
Never in the history of the world have
there been as many nations at war
as at he present time, in v r so many I
men at the front, never such frightful
carnage. This wicked world will see
no more permanent, peace until the
Prince of Peace comes to reign on this
earth.
” Tlie prophecies of the Jews’ return
to Palestine are being' fulfilled. Amos
9:14, 15, Jer. 16: 15, 16. It is stated
that there are nearly 300,000 Jews in ■
Palestine at he present time. With I
the downfall of Turkey, the Jews will j
return in unbelief. According to
prophecy, the Jews will soon get pos
session of Palestine. Surely the time
of Jacob's troubles has begun. Jer.30:1.
)
Hear the words of Jesus again, in j
Matt. 24:14. "And this Gospel of the |
kingdom shall be preached in all the
world for a witness to all nations; and
then shall the end come." It is claim
ed that has been done, that the work
has encircled the globe. Note Jesusf
did not say that every one would hear
the Gospel and be saved, but that it
shall be preached for a witness unto
all nations. Hear Jesus speak to us
again in the 32nd and 33rd ve'ses of
the same chapter: “Now learn a par
able of the fig tree: when his branch
is yet. tender and putteth forth Ion ,'es j
ye know that summer is night. Sol
likewise ye when ye sh ill see all those
things, know that it is near, even'to
the doors.” When f'lends come to
see v r they are very near y< it when
thev . t to your dour. W* arc living
ill that l'ttle time between “even at the
doors" and the definite day and hour
. f Ills appearing. Hear Him again
in the 34ih verse of the same chapter,
“Verily I say unto you, this generation
shall not pass until all these things lie
fulfilled." What does Jesus moan by
"all these tilings?” The very same
thing that I have been calling your
attention to above: mid His second j
* coming is included in the "all things." i
What generation had Jesus reference
to? Not the one He was addressing,
no. for that generation has passed
away hundreds of years ago, and that
generation could not say that they had
seen all these things, false Christs,
wars, famines. earthquakes and the
preaching of the Gospel to all nations.
But you and I can; so we are the
generation that he had reference to.
And he seals these sayings with the
wonderful words, "heaven and earth
shall pass away, but My words shall
not pass away." Matt. 21:35.
A tew of The Phophecies
Notice Isaiah 60:8: “Who are these
that fly as a cloud and as doves to
their windows?” Do you not believe
that our modern airships are what the
prophets saw ? They certainly are.
Hear the prophet Nahum in the sec
ond chapter verses 3 and 4: “The char
iots shall be with flaming torches in
the day of his preparation. Meaning
preparing the bride for the rapture
and marriage. The chariots shall rage
in the streets, they shall jostle one
against the other on the broad way’s,
,Jhe.v shall seem like torches, they
shall run like lightening.” God gave
Nahum a revelation of the present.
He looked down the stream of time
of over 2,000 years and saw our mod
ern automibiles and street cars and
describes them as well as you or I
can looking right at them. Hear the
words of good old Daniel the prophet.
Daniel 12:1: “But thou. *> Daniel, shut
up the words and seal the book even
to the time of the end: Many shall run
to and fro and knowledge shall be
increased." Never in the history of the
woVld has there been so much travel
ing. .The earth is covered with rail
roads, so to speak, and steamer lines
on the ocean are something like spider
webs. It- is claimed that one can go
around the world with comfort and
ease in sixty days’ tiime, and it used
to take three months or more to cross
the ocean. During the year 1914,
600,000,000 tickets were sold at the cost
of $13,000,000,000 in the United States.
In the whole wot Id 2,000,000,009 tick
ets were sold at the cost of $29, 000,
000,000, These figures give us an idea
of the amount of traveling being done
in tlif world today.
"Knowledge shall be increased.”
This has been wonderfully fulfilled
in the past fifty years. Telegraphy,
with ami without wires, graphophones,
telephones, airhsips and automobiles
have all been invented in about the
lost fifty years. We have gone from
oxcarts to flying machines and wire
less telegraphy in one generation. So
we see phophecy fulfilled again in
this. If some one had come around
lifty years ago and said that with the
next forty years people would be fly*
ing through the air and talking 2500
miles through air without wires, you
would have said tnere was something
wrong in their upper story or that
they had gone daft, and you would
have said, "That will never be.” But
these thingh are here today. "Know
ledge shall be increased at the time
o fthe end.”
The World Is Growing Worse
The good are getting better and the
bad are getting worse. 2 Timothy, 3rd
chapter, verses 1 to 6, reveal the exact
condition of things in the world today.
The following figures plainly show that
the world is getting worse, in 1911
we vpent for amusements $800,000,000,
tor tobacco, $900,000,000, for dogs.
$200.000000, candy $78,000,000, for soft
drinks, $30,000,000, tor chewing gum
$26,000,000, and only $15,000,0000 for
missionary work in the whole world.
In 1913, 37,0(10 people applied for do
ve,roe and in 1914, 50,000. In 1913 we
spent for liquor $1,747,000,000 and in
1914, $2,000,000,000. Murder is in
creasing at the rate of five per cent
faster than the population. All the
above figures refer to the United States
except the 2,000,000,000 tickets sold at
the cost of $29,000,000,000. Spiritual
ism Christian Science and Theosophy
are making groat progress and are
deceiving millions of people In the
world today. Jesus said in Matt. 24:37,
"But as in the days of Noe were, so
| shall also the coming Son of, Man be.”
What condition "was the world in in
the days of Noe? Very wicked, only
eight souls saved. There is in the
world today distress of nations; the
sea is roaring; the greet- powers are
being shaken and the thrones are
crumbling. The world is rapidly pre
paring for the Man of Sin, the anti
Christ, whom the world will worship.
Everything is getting ready for him.
The world will soon be under his
dominion and worship him. Thes. 2;
4: Rev. 13:13-18. The great tribulation
of the last throj and one ! alf years
of Daniel’s "week” (Da.n 9:27) will be
such a time of suffering as the world
has never seen. The falling away
0 fthe churches and the great apostasy
is here just as prophecied by our
Savior, and as Paul says in 2 Tim, 3:5,
“having a form of godliness, but deny
ing the power thereof: from such turn
away.” This Scripture applies to pro
fessors. not sinners; they have no
form of godliness.
His Coming Will be Personal.
Acts I:II: "This same Jesus which
Is taken up from you into heaven,
shall so ccttne in like manner as ye be
held him going into heaven." At the
close of the tribulation period he will
bind the devil for a thousand years
(Rev. 20: 1, 2) and come with his
saints and reign on this earth for a
thousand years.
Beloved, let us live clean, humble,
holy lives before him every day, hour
and moment., so that we may escape
1 all these things and stand spotless be
fore the blessed Lamb of God at his
coming, for it will be in a moment, in
the twinkling of an eye. 1 Cor. 15:52.
There will be no time for praying and
making apologies then, so if you feel
short on these lines, you had better
get prayerful and make things right
with your fellow-men now, unmis
takably, we are now in the “Day of
his preparation,” and his judgements
are on the earth. The unrest, unset
tled and troubled conditions of nations
throughout the world prove the com
ing crisis near. Hear the words of
the blessed Christ once more:
"Therefore, be ye also ready; for in
such an hour as ye think not, the Son
of Man eometh.” Matt. 24:14. Note
the words, "Ire ready,” not be half
ready or getting- ready, but be ready.
"And they that were ready went in
with him to the marriage; and the
door was shut.” Matt. 25:10. The
five wdse virgins is a tpye of the bride.
And the oil is a type of the Holy
Spirit. Matt. 25:4.
“The King's daughter is all glorious
within; her clothing is of wrought
gold. She shall be brought unto the
King in raiment of needle-work; with
gladness and rejoicing shall they be
brought; they shall enter into the
King's palace. “Psalm 45:13-15.
This is a type of the bride. Glory to
God, the bride will be ushered into
the Kings palace in the pearly white
city with the streets of gold. ■ His
coming is so near that we can almost
hear his footsteps. Soon will be the
Translation or the Tribulation. Which
will you be in ?
"And when these things begin to
pass, then look up, for your redemp
tion draweth nigh. "Note the words
of Jesus, “begin to come to pass,” not
“have passed.” Watch and pray al
ways that ye may be accounted worthy
to escape all these things." Some say
| that the bride will go through the trib
ulation, but Jesus says if you are
worthy you will escape all these things.
Luke 21:28, 3G. Read Isaiah 26:20,
21. “Let us be glad and rejoice and
give honor to him; for the marriage of
the Lamb has come and his wife hath
made herself ready. And to her was
granted that she should be arrayed in
fine linen, clean and white; for the
fine linen is the righteousness of the
saints.” Rev. 19: 7, 8.
