At present, many people are testifying on online platforms that the Lord Jesus has returned. But some brothers and sisters are confused by a verse in the Bible, “But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Matthew 24:36). They say that if the time and date of the Lord’s return are unknown, then how can those bearing witness know that the Lord has returned? As a result, they hesitate and lack the courage to investigate and accept it. So does this view conform to God’s will? Let us think about it: When the Lord returns, He is to save people and take them into the kingdom of heaven, so if no one knew about it how could we follow and believe Him? And how could the Lord accomplish His work of saving mankind? Then how should we comprehend this verse in a way that is in accordance with God’s intention? How can we welcome the return of the Lord?
