We Can’t Know What We Can’t Know!

Matthew 24 + Luke 21 + Mark 13




Today’s Theme: Many find it difficult to study the “signs of the times.”  Are we living in the last days of earth’s history?   How would we know?  Can we know? Is it for us to know?  In this series we will learn that while we watch and wait, we are also to be ready to work!  


Overview:

  • THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE PROPHETIC TRUTH
  • THE MOST COHESIVE PROPHETIC TRUTH
  • THE MOST CONCLUSIVE ANSWERS TO PROPHETIC TRUTH


Foundational Truth’s:

    NUMBER 1: No man knows the time of Christ’s return


    NUMBER 2: The Bible says that the Angels do not know of the time of Christ’s return


    NUMBER 3: Even the Son of Man, Jesus Christ does not know


    NUMBER 4: Because we cannot predict the moment Jesus will return, we must be ready at all times for His return


Possible Purposes:

  • To ready all believers
  • To inform all believers


Dive Deeper:   {For Personal Study}

    

Read and study this week an outside source of Scripture: 2 Peter 3:9-18.  In verse 11 what is the word “therefore” there for?  


In this passage what is the theme of Peter’s writing?


In Verse 11 Peter says we ought to do something.  What two things should characterize the Christian’s behavior as we see the signs?  ___________ & ___________   lives. 


Most people today seem to dread the End Times. Read again verse 14.  Is this the attitude of Peter?     Why or why not?

What should we do this week to align ourselves with the Word of God we read?
