Know Bible Prophecy!
"The hope which is laid up for you in heaven,
of which you heard before in the word of the
truth of the Gospel."
Colossians 1:5
A man said to his pastor, “I don’t mind when you occasionally
preach on the signs of the times, but I’m not very interested in
biblical prophecy.” His pastor replied,
“Oh dear, then you must
not like the books of Daniel,
Zechariah, 1 and 2 Thessalonians,
Revelation, and big portions of Matthew, Isaiah, Second Peter,
and other books. That’s
quite a bit of the Bible to be missing!”
There’s a reason the Bible is packed with prophecy. It’s the
basis for the believer’s optimism. Jesus died and rose again
to give us a glorious future, and the unfolding coming events
should excite our minds, comfort our hearts, and inflame our
ministries.
If you’re indifferent or confused about biblical prophecy,
pray, “Lord, give me the fresh glimpse of what You have
planned for me and a new understanding of how it will
come to be. I’m eager to know!”
Today always goes better in
the light of God’s tomorrow.
"Bible prophecy helps us to better understand the
future and realize the urgent need to spread the
gospel. It motivates us to personal purity and
gives us hope in a hopeless age."
Tim LaHaye
