August 29^th 2010 Sunday Message Summary

Scripture: Matthew 24: 30-35

Jesus enlightened me and told me, “These are words that everyone of this time period should hear so lend me your ears, pay attention, listen well, record them, send them to those who can relay this message and convey my words and preach them with me with all your heart.”

In today’s scripture, Jesus spoke about the world’s last days and his Second Coming, and he said that there are especially many signs at that time. He said, “I will speak to you about fig trees using it as a parable so listen carefully.” He also said, “Just as we can know that the summer is near when the branches get tender and its leaves come out, know the times of the last days and the Second Coming when you see all these signs and hear all the things I have spoken about.”

People are unaware because all things happen gradually a little at a time. Even when things happen this way, you must know beforehand whether misfortune or blessings will come by keeping a close watch. The last days of this time period that the Lord spoke of will come upon us little by little every day showing many various signs. And then one day, signs will take place in a more serious way. By seeing the signs that take place little by little, we should know thoroughly and realize that the Lord’s Second Coming is at the door and we should live having prepared.

the Lord’s Second Coming and the Last days began a long time ago. If you only realize that the Lord has come when the trumpet of the archangel sounds, you will ultimately be unable to receive the Lord. You need to know it beforehand in order to receive him. You cannot avoid the bomb after the bomb has already exploded with a ‘boom!’By that time, it is over already.

Jesus spoke when I prayed to Jesus sometime past midnight. He said, “Now all the good and the bad things that relate to this time period are coming near to you, the individual, family, nation, and the world. Judgment is taking place right now. But even still people are oblivious.” When I asked the Lord why they are oblivious, he spoke these words.

He said, “To explain simply, all things of the world take place slowly and gradually and disaster is also taking place slowly and gradually, so even if those things apply to those who live in that domain, they remain unaware, and they can’t realize it even if they see it with their eyes or hear it with their ears, yet they only get curious about it. Then, they sometimes feel anxious and are filled with worry, and sometimes, they live with joy and laughter. And sometimes they think, ‘I guess all kinds of things come up in life.’ Now, as written in the Bible, the last days are taking place, and with my Second Coming drawing close, there will be judgment and signs of the last days taking place right now. But people think, ‘These things have always happened in the past so…’ and think of it as an everyday occurrence. So, look at how each of them live and reflect on your own life. You cannot see or feel it even though it moves like the hour hand of a clock, so reflect on how you live your day in detail day to day.”

Even if you make progress more each day, even if it is a little at a time, they will be victorious in the process and will eventually reach their destination and win. The person who does not make progress every day, not even a little at a time, just because they find it difficult, will one day find themselves not at their destination, or even if they did reach it, they will crumble. Therefore, you need to check whether you are progressing in your life every day even if it’s a little at a time no matter how difficult it may be, or whether you are remaining in the same spot, or whether you are living your life not doing things even if they are a little at a time. And you need to live knowing that you will win because of the things you do and that you will fail because of the things you don’t do.

Trash in your house also piles up because it is piled a little at a time. Your sins also pile up high like a mountain because of the sins you commit little by little day by day.

People always think inside, ‘I’m sure it will work out. I hate misfortune. I hate disaster. I hate failure. I hate it when hope shatters.’ People usually don’t think about the things that won’t work out because it’s gloomy or ominous. They live as they do because it is more convenient to think that things will work out. But it will not work out as they hoped or as they thought it would, and problems will explode like bombs. They will come up against such things. The reason why they go through tragic times is because all that time, they were not living every day a little at a time towards the side of living properly.

In the days to come, all kinds of disasters will come upon each nation and war will approach some countries gradually. Because they are approaching little by little, people neither feel them nor know them even if they see reality. After progressing bit by bit, when the day comes and when the hour comes, in an instant, they will happen like, a ‘Boom,’ or a ‘Bang.’

In the days to come in this time period, such things as this will draw near. You can know their destinies on that day when you look at how an individual, a family and a nation is living day by day now. I urge every one of you to carefully look at yourself, how you are living. When you are alert and watch how much you love God, the Almighty and the Judge, and Jesus, the Savior, and how you are treating them, you will know.

The last days of the world, which people in the world are curious about, have already begun and are advancing towards the appointed time, little by little. However, since it keeps on moving like an hour hand of a clock will move, people don’t feel it. It doesn’t feel real. Last days aren’t just for one special day. When is the last day for this year? December 31^st is the last day. However, if you were to divide up the year, the last period is October, November, and December. About 3 months is the last period of the year.

The Lord said, “Just as people said that the year 2,000 was the last days of the world, in 1999 many signs took place in various places around the world, and wars, earthquakes, storms, drought, floods, fires, plagues, and etc. came about. When the world gets destroyed and when you die, will you finally believe that it is the end, and that it is the last days?”

Also for the Second Coming of the Lord, when calculating in terms of the domain of the Second Coming period, already from dozens of years ago even before the Providence history began, we have entered into the Second Coming domain, and the Lord made history so that Christianity as well as this time period can prepare for the Second Coming. And then in our Providence history, he proclaimed the Word on a full scale so that people can prepare for the Second Coming of the Lord. He instilled in us resurrection faith and helped us change as the Lord’s brides.

In the Bible, it says that those who will receive the Lord will change in a flash at the time of the Second Coming. It’s talking about the character, deeds, mentality, heart, and the spirit changing into the Lord’s counterpart of love. You cannot change all of sudden and become a bride all of a sudden. You must change little by little and become brides little by little, and then one day, you will become a 100% perfect person.

A few days ago the Lord saw me not being able to keep my time and breaking my rhythm because I was tired, and showed me a revelation saying, “There is no time. Can you still collapse saying that you are tired?” After I received this revelation, I asked whether he showed me this because this was related to my work or this reflected this time period, or whether this has to do with the time of the Lord’s Second Coming. The Lord said, “It is relevant to the work you are doing right now, and I have also shown you about this time period and about the time of my Second Coming.” We must not fall asleep, play, or rest. That is the only way that remains for us.

The Lord said, “Those who advance toward their destination little by little everyday are victorious people; those who don’t even move a bit and march in place are failures; and those who fall behind little by little everyday and are not able move forward are people who collapse.” I want you to check to see whether you are moving forward little by little every day, whether you are marching in place, or whether you are falling behind little by little. This will determine success and failure in your life.

All of you must realistically analyze whether you are wandering off to another path little by little right now. If you don’t discover that you are wandering off little by little, you will be ruined. You will crumble. If you look at the minute hand of a clock carefully, you will see it moving. If you see everything in detail, you will know whether you are going on a wrong path little by little.

You will be victorious in life if you have the kind of faith where you advance little by little every day.
