“There shall come in the last days scoffers [people who make fun of something] … saying, Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation”<\/b> (2 Peter 3:3-4).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Away back in the time when the church was first formed, nearly 2,000 years ago, they knew about the Lord’s coming. The Lord Jesus had told them, and the apostles preached this precious truth very clearly. But after the apostles had gone to be with the Lord, Christians very quickly lost the hope of the Lord’s coming. However, about 200 years ago, the Lord used some diligent students of the Bible to begin to teach that wonderful truth again, and now many people know about the coming back of the Lord Jesus. It has been widely preached among many Christians, and even worldly people who are not saved know about it.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Some of them are saying what we find in our verse for today. They are saying that they have been hearing about the Lord’s coming for many years, and yet nothing happens. They make fun of Christians who believe that the Lord will come back and take us home to be with Himself. They try and tell us that everything is going on just as it always did.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Why is the Lord Jesus waiting so long? He is waiting longer because He loves lost sinners, and wants more of them to be saved. He knows that when He comes, there will be no more chance to get saved, and that all those who are left behind when He comes will go into a lost eternity.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Everything that God has said in the past has happened, just as He said it would. It is the same with the Lord’s coming, for God always keeps His promises. We may see the world get more wicked than it is, if we are left here for a little longer. Life may become more difficult for those of us who are believers. Thirty years ago, some of us wondered how the world could possibly get any worse, but it certainly has happened. In many countries today serious moral sins are not only tolerated, but legalized. God is not going to let all this go on indefinitely. No, the Lord Jesus will come for us, just as He said He would. Are you looking for Him today?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n\n\n
