Is it closer than you think?

[Rocco]

We know neither the day nor the hour. But we know the season. Romans 13:11-12 how long is the season? Surely it's well along?

Could be but we don't know.  We will never be able to figure out the day or the hour and that's ok we don't need to know.   Too much focus on the timeline aspect could lead to disappointment and loss of faith.

"Expectations postponed makes the heart sick", we know neither the day nor the hour. We know that the great tribulation comes in "our" time the last days. It must be close, the urgency "I feel" has become closer than ever. Am I wrong... maybe?

No of course you are not wrong. It is close; we all yearn for the end of this wicked system but also remember that the closeness should spur us on to greater activity in the preaching work and using our time wisely now to build up our faith to get through the Great Tribulation. There could be a danger of loss of our faith if this system were to go in longer than we imagined it will. We just don't know and will never know. That's the way Jehovah designed it.

I think there's a public talk with a similar outline?

No Andy...you are right about this...for sure, the clock is ticking down...and it does no one any good

to act as if we can't hear it!

[Ahuvah]

Well we DO know one thing that the FDS is happy for  us to know that ....

 

IT's just around the corner!

 

 

The question is how far is that corner away? Haha. And the thing is ... when something is just around the corner ... turning that corner may take some maneovering and then we will be face to face with it. 

 

And we can say with certainty that it WILL happen on a Wednesday - give or take three days.

That sounds like a great title for a public talk..."Can You Smell the Flowers?"
