Understanding the time, and the trend, and seizing the opportunity is the key to success and sustainability. What time is it now? It is still the time of grace. Don't miss it.
Understand also the power of love and grace. Those who believe in power and violence are still starting and fighting wars all over the world. Making others rich will help you be richer and provide peace for all. Hope the politicians know this simple unchanging rule to bring peace and prosperity on earth and create opportunities for the gospel to spread.
Lessons:
- Know that violence does not stop violence. Only love does.
- "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that" --- Martin Luther King, Jr.
- Matthew 5:38-42 Jesus critiques "an eye for an eye" and encourages turning the other cheek and forgiveness.
- Understand the Meaning of the Times and take the right action
- Recognition of Divine Visitation & spiritual opportunities
- - Foretelling Jerusalem's destruction
- - Warning about the consequences of rejecting God
- Know therefore that this is the time of grace, and we can find salvation in Jesus. When Jesus comes again, it will be for judgment and it will be too late.
