Do not allow anyone to steal your expectation, no matter how sincere they might be. Our apostle Paul has the final word on the snatching away and on those saints remaining alive at the return of Christ who will not die.

It is hard for us to think like those who love the eon and who want to live long lives upon the earth. We long to see Christ and we groan within these bodies of death. Besides this, we writhe in pain for the corporate suffering of all humanity. Not everyone thinks like we do, however. Some people care only for their own plans in this life, especially those plans having to do with family ties. We also love our families, but we love Christ’s advent even more and we look for Him at every moment.

The pathetic paucity and flimsiness of the “evidence” offered by those like Clyde Pilkington and Stephen Hill as they attempt to prove that half of Paul’s letters are not for us, that we all must die, that the return of Christ is hundreds of years away, and that we are “wasting our time” looking for Christ's return, is shocking and must be exposed for what it is.  

Today I look at more mistranslations, this time concerning “a thousand generations,” an Old Testament phrase hijacked by the "Paul-cutters" in their efforts to put Christ's return far into the future. In an accurate translation, this phrase does not even say what they say it says.

Take courage! Let our spirit-inspired apostle be true though every man a liar.
