Chapter 6
Evolution Of Time
Millennium
We live in the time of the second millennium, standing on a high
mountaintop with the wisdom to see times past and view the future. What
was a mystery to your ancestors is being fulfilled, perhaps mysterious to
most but not for everyone. The scriptures, previously veiled, are revealed
and the words don’t change because a testimony offers a reminder of what
was already stated. Jesus offered a glimpse of the future saying: ‘
“Though I
hav e be en speaki ng f i gura t i v e l y , a t ime i s c omi ng when I wi l l no l ong e r
us e t h i s ki nd o f l anguag e bu t wi l l t e l l y ou p l a i n l y abou t my Fa t he r .
In
that day you will ask in my name [which name]. I am not saying that I will
ask the Father on your behalf. No, the Father himself loves you because
you have loved me and have believed that I came from God. I came from
the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going
back to the Father.’ Then Jesus’ disciples said, ‘Now you are speaking
clearly and without figures of speech. Now we can see that you know all
things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions.
This makes us believe that you came from God. “You believe at last!” Jesus
answered. ‘But a time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered,
each to his own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for
my Father is with me. I have told you these things, so that in me you may
have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have
overcome the world.’”
