To set a date for the Lord’s return in the face of the - TopicsExpress



          

To set a date for the Lord’s return in the face of the scriptural declaration that not even the Son knows the day, the hour, or the time (Matt. 24: 36; 25: 13; Mark 13: 32– 33) is to commit a grave ethical and spiritual error. At the same time, resistance to date setting should not become skepticism about the event itself. Should the date setter’s motive be to frighten the lost into the kingdom of God, the tactic may produce a scare. But it will ultimately fail because only godly fear produces the desired result (see 2 Cor. 7: 10). Pierce, T. Burton (2012-01-30).
