The Battle is On!

May 22, 2011

Yesterday, May 21 was supposed to be Judgment Day.

There was supposed to be a giant earthquake yesterday too - according to Harold Camping, a retired civil engineer who founded a California-based evangelical Christian radio. Again according to Camping, all non-believers would be dead by October 21.

So is Camping a false prophet? This we know at least – that he will not be the last evangelist to claim the foreknowledge of Christ’s second coming. Funny that they should know what even Christ does not,

Matt 24:36
But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

The Bible says that He might come back any time, but we do not know the exact time.

Instead of going into wild and interesting speculations of end-times prophecies, the Bible tells us to be alert for signs that points to His imminent return. The signs are there since Christ’s time – escalating natural catastrophes, heightening lawlessness and intensifying sinfulness.

Is Christ’s return very soon? Yes. Satan knows that and he is working overtime to oppose God. The devil believes God and is on an assault to win. He is waging terrorism, guerrilla and even open warfare to capture the souls of men. And the only army to stop him is the CHURCH.

The church is in a spiritual warfare. Jesus, our military Commander has defeated the enemy, Satan but he is fighting back. The stakes are high and the battle is fierce. But we must not back down nor bow out.

We must clean up our act, wake up from our sleep and stay alert and vigilant for the fight is on!
