More Time. . .???

The song Wait a Little Longer Please Jesus, used to be sung quite often among Christians. Later there was the song, My House Is Full But My Fields are Empty, emphasizing the need for workers to enter the harvest outside their comfort zones of inward focus and inward maintenance. Some are ready to say strongly, "even so come Lord Jesus." Evidence leads Christian scholars to believe that the fulfillment of time for Christ to return is close - even at the door. Do Christians continue to cry for more time or, does His cry for more involvement in the last of the last days work before His return drown out every attempt to raise a voice more prominent than His? More time. . . .??? How much more. . .??? ". . .the devil has come down to you (the world), having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time" (Rev. 12:12b). The Almighty will signal a halt to time as we know it. . . . "Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. . .", said the Apostle Paul some 1950 years ago. Do Christians see where we are in time? Do Christians need more reminders? More time. . .??? "Time shall be no longer," (Rev. 10:6b) he will say on that final day. Wait a little longer or get involved in the harvest? The fields are ripe, ripe ripe! Milton Gordon
