What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Sign seen

    I’m currently on holiday and so spending quite a lot of time going in and out of churches. (What else do you think I would do on holiday?)

    In one of the many churches I’ve visited, I caught sight of this.

One response to “You’ll have had your apocalypse”

    I always think that the point about Jesus’ return is that we may well live to see it, but on the other hand, we might be killed in a road accident this afternoon. That is the urgency of following Jesus.

    I think that a Rapture is possible, but firstly very unlikely (the Biblical interpretation that leads to such a conclusion seems rather far-fetched), and secondly, escapist. It is already a blindingly obvious statement that in 2013, people are already under serious threat of arrest, torture and death for their faith in some parts of the world. There is no guarantee for any Christian in the comfortable West that they will not face such persecution or worse, whether Jesus returns in their lifetimes or not.
