I believe through all this buzz about Rapture predictions…  1. God is calling His church to a season of return, repentance, and fresh beginnings. 2. God reminds us that He is sovereign over the earth and over our lives.----more---- 3. God urges us to prepare ourselves daily for the coming of the Lord. 4. God doesn’t want us to be ignorant of the times we live in, but wise and watchful. 5. God warns us not to be distracted by predictions of dates and times, which are unbiblical—our focus must remain on living ready.
