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.’”
