The Lord's Second Coming

The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewhido Church remembers the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ on this Sunday/mid-Lent/. In this day every Christian is advised to research his/her spiritual life, to start living a repentant life. The Church teaches the events to happen at the Lord's day/The day of Judgement/. The Ressurection of all children of men for judgment is narrated in details.

With God's plethoric and ineffable mercy, the fallen  race of mankind was elevated to childhood through Christ 2003 years ago. No one expected God in a manger /Luke 2: 1-14/. The world was running unnoticing  the birth of her Creator in flesh, everyone including the authorities, the emperors, the rich, the poor, the lay... etc, were unaware of God's coming in humbleness. Nobody noticed the child Christ in a manger in Bethlehem except the wise kings, led by the angel of God - not even the chief priests in Jerusalem. But God forgets not promises, He sworn for Abraham, in whose seed was the world to be blessed. God wastes not a minute from His plan to save the world. He came with His time, unnoticed.


The world is now running to nowhere but God's time. Our socio-economy and global politics has extended so much to bring all races of men into a table.The global convergence seems that it is leading us back to the Genesis era, children of men in Shinar building the tower, with one accord./Genesis 11:1-8/. All races are flowing to the new Babylon in the name of DV. Every nation is striving to speak a single international language. The global leaders are pushing for a single currency[1]. The UN, IMF...etc are pushing to become more powerful than the sovereign states, which is an indication for a one world government. The leaders are pushing to form a New World Order[2].  

The technology is whirling to make information flow fast and instant, for the Gospel of God should be preached to every soul, for judgement. For God in Christ promised it  " 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all nations; and then shall the end come.", Matthew 24:14.  Shall we need a prophet that the Internet is one of the tools God used to reach out souls? Is there anytime on earth, the gospel has been preached like this via Facebook, youtube, google, msn, yahoo, messengers, paltalk, ...etc?

Doesn't it seem that God is reshuffling the world to an order for something, frankly talking we are going to the end of the world, but no one knows how far we are from it?

Still the world is running without noticing its path. As a Christian, we fear not all these. We knew it to happen at God's time. We tremble not for losing the world, but for not bearing fruit to show in front of  the Lord, our God. Lets wake up and walk a walk of just reason! Lets use our time to love others, for we are created to love. Lets stretch out our hands to the poor, for demonstrating our faith in Christ. Lets live our time wisely, to not regret later!!!!

May the Lord keep us from snares of Satan. Amen.
Forget me not in your prayers.
