Exegesis

To validate that Eschatology (n) is the study of the last days or “doomsday” would be  to confirm that such a thing is possible.   There is a “doomsday” for the wicked in the Judgment of God, but it happens inside a peaceful world.   While a ballerina performs her pirouette and a soprano sings her aria, the world’s most dangerous people are being Judged by God.    While Faust is taken to hell in Shakespearian Drama the  world’s most dangerous people are being Judged by God.

1a. Take the facts of life of Shakespeare with a grain of salt.  We used to know more about him. His information, his life story and his works are conspired against regularly.

In its present state “eschatology” has become the learning of an old Revelation and judgement which is mixed with superstition to create a book of Revelations which has served Christians, but has also disappointed them. In all Judgments or tribulations which have taken place before and after the time of Jesus Christ, the world’s political and religious leaders which have become corrupted are taken in the Judgment of God.

Every time God has Judged the world throughout history, the world’s most dangerous people are judged by God,  it is never the 2nd coming as billed,   the ocean does not dry up, the devil never appears, and none of the superstition written in the book of Revelations comes to past.  What does come to past is Judgment of God and return of the son man, the spirit of Man who many people love as Jesus Christ.

The original  2nd coming of Jesus Christ  came to past about two thousand years ago, just after his glorious life and resurrection.  It was  the first Judgment of Jesus Christ after he was Jesus Christ, because as Jesus Christ he did Judge the world.  Jesus Christ was a manifestation of the Holy Spirit so glorious that Jehovah’s Witnesses question that he was crucified. It is very hard to lay hands on Jesus Christ in any of his lifetimes.

And so Man enters into our world one which is already being judged. And as events “escalate” leading to the proverbial “armageddon” which has been used to describe many wars both real and fictitious, he is revealed to the world as Man, the prophet, God to some, Jesus Christ to others, but the only authority which can take responsibility for Judgment of God, bring it to close and open a new era.

The end of time is perhaps the most  misunderstood concept in the study of eschatology.   When Jesus judged the world, it was the end of time.  We literally stopped time and began over!  History before Christ is dated  B.C. & after Christ is Anno Dominus.  That must have been one powerful manifestation such that we still measure time by its existence.

I have no doubt that the love we have for Jesus Christ we have more than once wanted to start time over upon confirming his return,  especially in the great judgment of God which created the Islamic faith, and still we must ponder the profoundness of the reasons for which Muslims measure time.
