PHILIPPINES: Site of Christ’s Return and Headquarters of God’s Kingdom

“When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight. While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing, who also said, ‘You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.'” (Acts 1:9-11, World English Bible [WEB]).

Being Informed Beforehand is Very Advantageous

Definitely, the advantages of having advance knowledge cannot be overemphasized, let alone believing. Being “tipped-off” beforehand on basic spiritual facts and issues produces fruits. This is in contrast to being “plain unknowing'” potential to being “caught off-guard,” misplaced in awkward position when they come into fruition soon at fulfillment.

Unbelievable? Stay-on, just remain aware! Why? 

If claims in this Site appear to be incredible and hard to believe, stay-on and remain filled with plain awareness. Lord Jesus Christ applied this in dealing with His disciples saying “I have told you these things before they happen so that when they do happen, you will believe” (John 14:29, NLT). Interestingly, with John 14:29 comes a new issue that was never discussed before: Christ’s disciples were not believing Christ all along!

Total Disregard of Prophecy In Active Fulfillment

In His first coming herein referred to as biblical times, the generations of Jewish people, ironically led by the learned spiritual leaders and teachers of law, except one, were not giving any value to messages despite the wisdom carried in them. They were too much believing themselves to consider Christ, the Messenger, as relevant. In other words, they totally disregard the prophecy fulfilling in their times the people before them were struggling to figure-out. Read more >>

We Found What King Solomon Was Looking For

Would you believe that these truths are what ancient King Solomon had been looking for in his dismay over the uselessness of all the works that are done in this world?

The truths we come to understand progressively through constant spiritual clarity as we proximate the goal are forever applicable for life. They are actually the issues and objects longed for by the King which contrast what he complained about against this evil world. He was groaning in pain watching the world through his window (Proverbs 7:6):

“I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and behold, all is vanity and a chasing after wind” (Ecclesiastes 1:14, WEB).

Other Translations

Now let’s see how some of the other versions translate “works that are all vanity” as translated by World English Bible: Read it here >>>

In general, it is further interesting to realize that these truths are likewise inherently craved on by humanity throughout life, both religious and non-religious, yet far from reach due to the unlimited expanses in between unknowns. But not until this End-Time of the Ages where the way toward it was practically, by all intents and purposes, “tipped-off,” directly from above.

In Perspective: So great are God’s spiritual truths you only believe when they happen! But Mankind turned away from them completely one hundred eighty degrees ◄180°► opposite direction of life following the way far from truths.

Truths is spiritual

Truths are spiritual. This lies the predicament in man.  Man finds it difficult to deal with spiritual matters. Find in the Bible how the people of Israel disliked the spiritual God in 1 Samuel 8 :5-7, and preferred a king they see and touch.

“. . . ‘Give us a king to judge us like all the other nations have.’ Samuel was displeased . . . ‘Do everything they say to you . . . for they are rejecting me, not you,’ the LORD replied.”

Vanity

With man, everything is vanity, says Solomon, but with God, it is eternity.

When we seek for truths, find the eternal truths that last forever, the spiritual truths of God, not those required to be backed by things that are visible. Why? For the simple reason that God is Spiritual. And truths that are spiritually discerned are real “forever” ones. But truths demanded of evidence before they are believed to legitimate veracity is vanity:

“Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation” (Mark 8:12, WEB).

Believing spiritual truths are by way of faith which is defined by the Book of Hebrews as the “. . .  assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen . . . not . . . made out of things which are visible” (Hebrews 11: 1-3, WEB).
