Moreover the word of the LORD came to me saying,
"Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord GOD:
You were the seal of perfection,
Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
You were in Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your
covering:
The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
Beryl, onyx, and jasper,
Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald
with gold.
The workmanship of your timbrels
and pipes
Was prepared for you
on the day you were created.
Ezekiel 28:11-13
God is speaking about Satan. This is where we get into deception again. Satan was born beautifully perfect, and also full of wisdom - he had it all. His arrogance got the best of him - born a little too perfect!?!
Revelation is so hard to understand - is there more or is the meaning deeper than I can understand? Probably the latter, and I have read it countless number of times. How can you prepare, except loving God?
Jesus doesn't know when He is coming back. Time means nothing to God, so don't get caught up in the days thinking you have plenty of time. I know for a fact that God does everything in His timeframe.
Who knows what God's timeframe is? All I know is that I feel that we have begun - tick, tock; tick, tock. I just feel that God is fed up. We don't know how to treat one another anymore, maybe there is still time to learn. There is definitely time to ask Jesus into your heart and repent of your sins; also, tell God that you love Him.
This is a faithful saying:
For if we died with Him,
We shall also live with Him.
If we endure,
We shall also reign with Him.
If we deny Him,
He also will deny us.
If we are faithless,
He remains faithful;
He cannot deny Himself.
2 Timothy 2:11-13
