There are certain things&nbsp;God just doesn&rsquo;t tell us. Not only do we not know the answer, but we are told <strong>not to look for the answer<\/strong>. The scriptures are pretty clear.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew 24:36 (ESV), &ldquo;But concerning that day and hour <strong>no one knows<\/strong>, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.&rdquo;&nbsp;Mark 13:32-33 (ESV), &ldquo;But concerning that day or that hour, <strong>no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father<\/strong>. Be on guard, keep awake. For <strong>you do not know<\/strong> when the time will come.&rdquo; While Jesus was on earth, even He was not told the hour. That puts us in the same company as dear God&rsquo;s Son.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Matthew gives us <strong>signs<\/strong> of the times in Matthew 24, specifically verses 32-33 (NIV). &ldquo;Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that <strong>it<\/strong><strong> <\/strong><strong>is near<\/strong>, right at the door.&rdquo; Most agree that the restoration of Israel as a nation is the fulfillment of this prophesy. We are to be watching because the time is near.<\/p>\n<p>God knows it is a good thing we do not know our appointed time. We need to consecrate our lives to <strong>do His will in this life and for all eternity<\/strong>, not just toward a specific date.&nbsp; All things will be done in God&rsquo;s time table. With the current events, it may <strong>seem like it is taking too long<\/strong> but we need to <strong>be patient<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Habakkuk 2:3, &ldquo;For the vision <\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-1 fusion-flex-container hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"background-position: center center;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:#eae9e9;border-style:solid\">\n<div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start\" style=\"width:calc( 100% + 0px ) !important;max-width:calc( 100% + 0px ) !important;margin-left: calc(-0px \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-0px \/ 2 )\">\n<div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-0 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column fusion-flex-align-self-flex-start fusion-column-no-min-height\">\n<div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px\">[is] yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because <strong>it will surely come, it will not tarry.<\/strong>&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wouldn&rsquo;t we all like to know the answer to this?
