    The Purpose Of Second Coming Prophecy

    Contributed by Mark Stepherson on May 29, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,170 views

    Many misinterpret second coming prophecy because they do not know its purpose. It is not to inform us about events. It is not to identify the anti-Christ. It is to inspire us to obedience.

    The Purpose of Second Coming Prophesy 2 Thessalonians 3:4-13 Thomas Fuller was born in Africa about 1710. He was sold as a slave in Virginia in 1724. There is some disagreement about whether someone taught him to count to 100 or if he taught himself. He never had a day of formal education. He ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,384 views

    We can apply this principle of diligence to our spiritual lives, not simply our jobs. If we become lax or idle in our pursuit of God (worship, prayer, service, etc.), we will find ourselves missing God’s will.
