Etching by Albrecht Durer
What would it take for me to honestly ready myself on a daily basis for the appearance of Christ Jesus, and for the Tribulation? This weekend I have encountered a modern apocalyptic secular prophet Paul Kingsnorth and his
Dark Mountain Manifesto. It's easy to understand his giving up on the environmental activism which has defined his life for decades. What is hard to understand is how he can live without the hope of Easter and the Second Coming. I'm grateful to be asked by God's grace to pay attention to these issues. Apocalyptic literature in the Bible is something that I've been avoiding. Through Paul Kingsnorth's secular literature, I am now embracing the Bible's message of tribulation, destruction, and the New Earth, the victory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
