Friday, May 21

Whenever it is that they are saying, “Peace and security!” then sudden destruction is to be instantly on them.—1 Thess. 5:3.

 

World leaders sometimes use similar expressions when they talk about stabilizing relationships between nations. However, the announcement of “peace and security” that the Bible describes will be different. Why? When this happens, people may think that world leaders have succeeded in making the world a safer, more secure place. But in reality, “sudden destruction” will follow as the “great tribulation” unfolds. (Matt. 24:21) We do not know what will lead up to the declaration or how it will be made. And we do not know whether it will involve just one proclamation or a series of announcements. Whatever happens, we do know this: We should not be fooled into thinking that world leaders can actually achieve world peace. Rather, it is the signal that “Jehovah’s day” is about to begin!—1 Thess. 5:2. w19.10 8-9 ¶3-4

# Unlike others who will be deceived by the coming cry of “Peace & Security” we will discern the scriptural significance of current events. 

# we show a waiting attitude & see how will this prophecy be fulfilled . 

# stay awake & keep our senses. 

[Vinnie]

Peace and security means no more waiting. We long for this system to end and we pray for God's Kingdom to come as Jesus instructed us to do. How good that this will serve as a signal that "Jehovah's Day" is on it's way.
