We talk of Christ . . . and we write according to our (understanding), that our 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.
Personal thoughts on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; links to thought-provoking posts on Tuesday and Thursday; New Year's Resolution post on Saturday; break on Sunday.
