The Father Heart of God – Our Fullness
Signs of the End of the Age
When Jesus’ disciples asked Him about the signs of His coming and the end of the age, Jesus replied, saying “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:14)
In addition, Rev Ross also shared another verse in 2 Peter 3:10 that Simon Peter said, “But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.”
But note the next two verses! It’s a startling discovery for me!
Influencing the Day of Jesus’ Second Coming
2 Peter 3:11-12 says, “Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming…”
Speed its coming! The Bible actually tells us that we can quicken the day of Jesus’ second coming! Yet Rev Ross warned as that if we can speed it up, we can also slow it down! I was shocked when I heard this. How do we slow it down? By refusing or procrastinating in sharing the gospel throughout the earth.
A Touching Video Clip
During this sermon, a short few minutes video clip was shown to all of us and the last few words just moved me to tears. I felt strongly that those words were speaking to me. And the ending words were – “Come back to Me… and I will throw the biggest party that Heaven has ever seen. Love, your Dad, Almighty God.”

Sick of Words; See a Life
Rev Ross shared that non-believers are sick of hearing words about Christianity, unless it is backed up with changed lives. I guess that makes all the difference to us Christians. As the Bible says that faith without deeds is dead, so it is if we go around merely preaching the Word, without our lives being transformed by it.
