Summary

Many attend Church regularly but never give a thought that they are supposed to be watching for the return of Jesus Christ. Instead they comfort themselves with the words, "for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh". They ignore the commandment in the same verse to WATCH, (Matthew 25:13). Is it left then to the Jew to watch for the Messiah to come in POWER? Yet, He came first in PASSION, for God so loved the World, (John 3:16). When He comes again He will rule 1,000 years. A "little season" will follow. At the end, Jesus Christ will return the third time in GLORY, to rescue the faithful from the Earth.All these events are outlined in detail. Around this framework one is shown how to "actively watch" for His return. To show what to watch, events are taken from current history and related directly to prophecy in a modern day example. This can then be used as a springboard for the reader's own "active watching" for the return of the Prince of Peace.
