Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” Revelation 22:7 Not just ‘is Christ coming back?’ but ‘is Christ coming back soon?’ In the final book of the Bible, in the final chapter, Jesus spoke these words: What struck me was the word tacked on at the end of the question, ‘soon’. Early into the pandemic I was asked the question, ‘is Christ coming back soon?’ It’s a legitimate question that is often asked when there are significant, catastrophic events – whether man made (wars, anarchy, genocide, widespread human depravity, global economic recessions) or “acts of God” – (earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, floods, drought, blood moons, and yes, pandemics).
