Message Take Aways:

1. The Second Coming of Christ is not delayed due to a slackness on God’s part in fulfilling His word, but rather a demonstration of His patient longsuffering—“For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord GOD. “Therefore turn and live!” Ezekiel 18:32

2. The Day of the Lord will come suddenly upon an unrighteous world eventually ushering in the new heavens and a new earth as promised in God’s word—“Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.” Matthew 24:42

3. Knowing the promises of God, the believer is to walk in steadfastness by knowing the word and continually growing in the Lord—“You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.” James 5:8
