(I) talk of Christ . . . and (I) write according to (my understanding), that (my) children (and friends) may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins. (2 Nephi 25:26)

The Power of Second Coming Symbolism: The Rapture Happens Every Day for Someone
I think this every time I read of the attitude in the early church that the second coming was imminent.Throughout the middle ages the horrors of that time were perceived as evidence that the end was nigh. And I've heard the same trope throughout my forty years of church membership.
Now itseems to me that every day is the end of somebody's world.
I currently try to post original thoughts on Fridays, with quotes on Tuesdays. Feel free to comment on new or old posts. Comments on posts over a month old are moderated to avoid spam and will be released whenever I notice them. The comment policy is at the bottom of this page.
