As we look at all that is going on around us, let’s keep a Biblical perspective. This is not the sign of the end. God’s time table is not based on what the enemy and Antichrist is doing. God’s timing and time table is based on what His Church, His bride is becoming. Ephesians 5:27 says, “so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.” The Church today is not the ecclesiastical described here. She’s growing and becoming, but far from this image. If you are waiting for the return of Christ, look at the condition of His bride not at the works of Antichrist. Pour into her identity instead of pointing at politics and the system of this world and age. Christ will return for a bride that is strong, pure and functioning as the governing body of the benai elohim (the sons of God) on the earth, without fear, compromise and in total alignment and cooperation with the heart of God. Nothing else, no rulers, no government, no religion, no technological advances will bring Him back. Only Church who knows who she is and functions like it.
