An Alternative Apocalypse: A Challenge to Bible Students and Scholars

By: Grace, Anna

Lo Here Lo There Are you looking for the return of the visible Christ according to the signs of the times and the wars and rumors of wars in the world? In this past century, end-time prophetic events have been fulfilled on our earth like never before. Armies today surround Israel. The 20th century also brought us a tremendous prophetic fulfillment when Israel returned to its homeland. There were two world wars fought, and at this very moment there are many foreboding skirmishes in and around the Holy Land. Many have arisen in remote corners of the world professing to be the Christ. According to scripture, all of these are great apocalyptic foreshadows to alert us to the possibility, even the probability, that we are in the last days. At this crucial point in history, there is something we must consider. Is it possible that as Israel was misled by strict scriptural interpretation under the Old Covenant, so today is Christianity misled in the same way, and that is why we, too, believe that the second advent of Messiah will be as a conquering King? If we are waiting for Messiah King Jesus to come and destroy all wickedness and evil and save all of humanity, is it possible that we may have fallen into the same doctrinal error as the old religious sect in Jesus' day? They, back then, missed the mark by a long shot. There is nothing new under the sun, and just as it was historically at his first coming, it seems that we may today be in the same mindset, and therefore not prepared for his second coming. It may be time to look at eschatological scripture anew.
