Generations before us were told the same thing.

Very cool blog. Okay here goes. My thoughts on this topic are the following: when I was in young men’s I was told numerous times that I was part of a chosen generation of youth that was saved for the last days, now I hear the same thing being told to the youth of today. I’m sure the next wave of youth will be told the same thing. I have also read about how Joseph S. told his people of the imminent coming of The Lord, even giving them a specific time (although this is apparently debatable) and location ,coicidentaly not far from where the saints then resided. There is evidence that the New Testament prophets believed Christ’s second coming was also imminent. If I may say respectfully, maybe he’s just not coming back for the second time, if he did indeed come a first time (but that’s a whole other topic)?

It could very well be that some, if not many, will be living in millennial conditions without recognizing it for what it is–especially if the change is more gradual than we have been led to believe by our collective interpretation of prophecy.

It will be a big event. No mistaking it for something else.
