Home coming...
It was one cool evening, Motunrayo tied her wrapper firmly by her waist with Bible, notepad and a pen on her right hand, she headed to the backyard to study for an hour knowing that her husband Tope wouldn't return from work until about 2 hours later.
She was deeply engrossed in the study and suddenly she checked her phone for time and decided to ring Tope and say hello.
Motunrayo: Hello oko mi (My husband)
Tope: Hi dear
Motunrayo: How is work today?
Tope: Fine
Motunrayo: where are you, still in the office?
Tope: Yes, (sarcasm)
Motunrayo: okay then, see you soon; just checking on you
Tope: I am close to the house (with serious laughter)
Motunrayo: What? Uhn? What did you say? Are you serious?
Tope: I am close to the house (with a serious tone)
Marathon race began...
Motunrayo packed her Bible and other materials in haste!
"He mustn't meet me in this way"
She ran into the living room, removed her wrapper, changed to an evening gown. She rushed into the kitchen to do her dirty dishes and dried the bathroom floor. Panting and smiling she picked up her broom to sweep the bedroom, living room, kitchen and their balcony, thereafter she sat down and expected the return of her hubby.
Why the hurry and scurry?
Motunrayo knew her husband hates the house being dirty. Thinking he wouldn't come home till around 7-8pm, she flaunted all his dislikes.
And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not. (Luke 12:39-40)
Can you now see the reason why no man is permitted to know the time for the second coming of Christ! His coming is like a snap.
Many including ME will live in sin and disdain God's order only to quickly seek re-dress when the day draws closer. Unfortunately and good for us, none of us will have the time for repentance when rapture suddenly comes upon us! It will be too late!
Jesus second coming is too close; It is too risky to live in sin because there won't be the time to put off the filthy garment of sin, secret and dirty life, wet and lukewarm christianity, there won't be a time to go pay back all we stole, no time to forgive those we held in the captive of unforgiveness, no grace to greet those we are keeping malice with, no chance to pray for forgiveness of those secret sins, no time to make amends after rapture.
No repentance after rapture or death!
