"... before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes ..."
Among some Christians these days there is considerable speculation about the end of time. Books and movies on this theme garner a large audience. We need to be reminded that history will be brought to an end in God's own good time. Our efforts should be directed not toward divining the day of the Lord, but instead, like the faithful servant of Matthew 24:45-46, to doing the Lord's work.
