Jesus' next return – will it be soon?

WHEN WILL THE Lord come again…?

Through the years many attempts have been made to determine the date.

. William Miller set the day May 21, 1843. When that date failed, he refigured it for October 22, 1844.

. Joseph Smith announced the coming of the Lord was nigh in 1835.

. Charles Taze Russell of the Jehovah’s Witnesses said that the Lord came invisibly in 1874. He later changed it to 1914.

. Joseph Franklin Rutherford published a tract in 1920 announcing that Jesus/ coming would be in 1925.

. Hal Lindsey, in his book The Late Great Planet Earth, said that Jesus would return within 48 years of 1948.

We could give more examples, but, “What’s the lesson we’re to learn?” (Don Blackwell)

“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only” (Matt. 24:36).
