Will Jesus still find faith when He returns? It doesn’t look like it, according to the passages below, since there are 2.4 billion ‘Christians’ at this moment (a third of the world population), making the total number over generations in the tens of billions! Seeing this as a “few” is beyond absurd! Matthew 7:13-14 13  Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction , and many enter through it. 14  But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it .” - Berean Standard Bible Luke 18:7-8 7  Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay in helping them? 8  I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless , when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth ?”” - Berean Standard Bible The mere will He find faith on earth means ANY faith in Him whatsoever. What has become of logic reasoning in the church today? Do any professors, or church leaders even ask any questions around these verses above? Sure they do, however, they just put this dilemma conveniently aside, as the implications would be catastrophic, letting the church tumble down like a house of cards. Too much at stake! No wonder their hostile- and sophistic reactions when they’re challenged with these verses, and I’m speaking of personal experience here. Also, what about Jesus’ comments below? Matthew 7:22-23 22   Many will say to Me on that   day , ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23  Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!” - Berean Standard Bible Who preaches in the Name of Jesus? The 2.4 billion ‘Christians’. What do they say about their Jesus? That he will ETERNALLY abandon trillions upon trillions of non-believers into a torturing ‘hell’. Does their Jesus resemble the Jesus of Paul? No, Paul’s Jesus is the living God, the Saviour of ALL people! 1 Timothy 4:10 “To this end we labor and strive, because we have set our hope on the living God , who is the Savior of everyone , and especially of those who believe.” - Berean Standard Bible Paul’s Jesus is not the Jesus of the “Christian’ church today, and neither is Paul’s Gospel the gospel of the ‘Christian’ church today! See what he told the Corinthians below: 2 Corinthians 11:4 “For if someone comes and proclaims a Jesus other than the One we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit than the One you received, or a different gospel than the one you accepted, you put up with it very easily.” - Berean Standard Bible The ‘Christians’ today are all on the broad   way   to   destruction , because of one reason only, not believing in Jesus who has saved ALL mankind already at Golgotha! All peoples of the earth will mourn Matthew 24:30-31 30  At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn . They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31  And He will send out His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds , from one end of the heavens to the other.” - Berean Standard Bible All means “all”. This clearly states that ALL the peoples of the earth will mourn! Who would mourn? Those who are left behind. Those who missed out and not rescued by God, YET . God’s [initial] few elect will have left the earth, being spared the hour of trial. Revelation 3:10 “Because you have kept My command to persevere, I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth .” - Berean Standard Bible God’s few [initial] elect are few and far between, singularly suffering day and night. Paul suffered day and night. Moreover, he accepted his perils with gladness, because he was in the third heaven ( 2 Corinthians 12:2 ) and he knew the glorious outcome! for all! Paul kept his righteous faith, the faith he describes in Romans 4:5 , the faith of eternal life for all humanity and he was beyond excited to receive his crown of righteousness. 2 Timothy 4:7-8 7  I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith . 8  From now on the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me in that day; but not only to me, but also to all those loving His appearing.” - Berean Literal Bible Paul and his followers were tested far beyond what they could endure But, that was simply to make them constantly aware (in verse 9) of never to trust in themselves for anything, but only in God! Hans-Joachim and I attest to this ourselves! True Christianity is never ever for the faint hearted and no picnic at all! But oh so worth the suffering. To have God’s judgement on earth, while still alive, is pure grace. 2 Corinthians 1:8-10 8  We do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the hardships we encountered in the province of Asia. We were under a burden far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. 9  Indeed, we felt we were under the sentence of death, in order that we would not trust in ourselves , but in God , who raises the dead. 10  He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. In Him we have placed our hope that He will yet again deliver us,” - Berean Standard Bible Paul also has the wonderful foresight for those believing in HIS Gospel, the Gospel of Christ who saved ALL mankind already, that no condemnation In Gehenna is awaiting! 1 Corinthians 11:32 “But when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.” - Berean Standard Bible To conclude with Luke 18:7-8 below: Luke 18:7-8 7  Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay in helping them? 8  I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless , when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth ?”” - Berean Standard Bible May you believe in the Jesus who saved ALL already and therefore be among the first elect when Jesus returns!
