The New Testament consistently reminds us that Jesus will come again—not as a suffering servant, but as the glorious King and righteous Judge (Acts 1:11; Revelation 22:12). His return is not meant to frighten His people but to bring them victory and reward. For the early church, the Second Coming was not a distant doctrine…
The ancient Greeks had two words for time: chronos and kairos. While chronos is quantitative, kairos is qualitative. Chronos is about minutes; kairos is about moments.

The allure of the “health and wealth” gospel is undeniably powerful. In a world fraught with uncertainty, illness, and financial strain, a message promising divine favor, material blessings, and perfect health can sound like a beacon of hope.
