Are we truly in the last days before the end of the world as we know it? Is Jesus Christ going to literally return to earth? What is the fate of those innocents that died before the age of accountability? We all have questions about what God has intended for His people, what God has intended for the rest of the world's people.
Tradition has kept us from an open mind while interpreting Scripture. God knew this would happen. In fact, he intended for some prophecy to stay hidden until our days. "But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased" (Dan. 12:4). With our computers and all the associated references, we are now able to dissect Scripture and re-associate it back to the languages in which it was written. Set aside what tradition has taught you and be prepared to learn. God wants you to know His intentions.
