The Time is now. Throughout the Old Testament God revealed to His prophets the coming of His only begotten Son Christ Jesus. There is the prophecy of the coming of Christ and the things that would happen and how before Christ came. In Daniel it is written to seal up the book of the prophecy because it is for a time to come. In Revelation John is told not to seal the book for the time is now.
Daniel 12:9 And he said, “Go your way Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.”
Revelation 22:10 And he said to me, “Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand.
The Old Testament is a history, a prophecy of what was to come. There is wisdom and teaching of how to live a good and righteous life before God and the consequences of going to evil, greed, pride, hate, and all the things that God teaches against. In Jesus God’s teaching was perfect. Jesus loved His Father God and obeyed His commandments. Jesus left us a perfect teaching of the Fathers ways and how to follow them. The time is now. Will we follow Jesus? Will we learn from those things done good and bad by those who have gone before? As Solomon’s wisdom from God revealed, there is nothing new under the sun, what has been will be.
Matthew 24:6-8 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Jesus said: “If you love Me keep My commandments.” (John 14:15)
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise.
Are we bearing the fruit of the Spirit? Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Are we walking in it? Do others SEE Christ in us?
