1 John 2:18
Children, it’s the last hour;
and just as you heard that antichrist is coming,
even now many antichrists have appeared;
from this we know that it is the last hour.
John recognizes the seriousness of his time.
He has an eye for the spirit of his time.
What is that also necessary for us, and for our young people!
In love and compassion John writes to these Christians: Little children, it is the last hour.
We can see that all around us.
Many go out of us.
The antichrist is making himself big.
The world passes and its lust.
The last hour.
The era preceding the last day has arrived.
After this time there is nothing more than just the return of Christ.
▪︎ On the one hand, all kinds of recent phenomena need not surprise us all that much.
It is foretold!
▪︎On the other hand, the call applies all the more: it is the last hour, watch and pray, be sober!
