7 Days of Fundamental Biblical Concepts for Studentsサンプル

## When Is Jesus Coming Back? In almost every generation since Jesus walked the earth, people have used the Bible’s numbers and symbols to try to figure out when to expect his second coming. Maybe you’ve even heard a few theories yourself. But Jesus says in Matthew 24:36 that no one knows when he’ll come again, not even the angels in heaven. The Father alone knows, and that’s enough. While it’s not up to us to determine the day or time, Jesus does instruct us to be aware of the signs of his second coming. The Bible is intentionally vague about the question of when but very straightforward about the question of how. How should we live as we wait? We should anticipate Jesus’ return with gladness, always preparing ourselves for that glorious day. While we are waiting, here are a few ways we can prepare and anticipate his return: Stand firm in our faith. The Bible reveals what it looks like to live a life fully devoted to Christ at home, work, school, church and in the community. See an example of this in Matthew 25:1 13. Avoid complacency in our spiritual lives. It’s human nature to get lazy as the days continue to pass, but Jesus tells us to stay alert. Ask yourself, ‘‘What do I want him to find me doing when he returns?’’ Tell others about Jesus with love and urgency. In Matthew 28:18 20, Jesus gave believers the Great Commission before he ascended to heaven, commanding us to make disciples of all nations. Pray that Jesus would come soon. He promises to hear us. We don’t know when Jesus will return, and that’s okay. The Bible calls us to lead lives of faith filled holiness like Jesus is coming today.
