Great attitude!

The below is a great attitude exhibited by a young man who wrote to Marilyn Agee, who posted it on her Web site:

"One of the Incoming Emails you replied to on the Pro & Con 504 page referred to people who felt "burned" by the 88 reasons in 1988 Rapture prediction. I was about 21 years old at the time. Of course, as a born-again Crhistian, I was very excited by that booklet. Even so, when it didn't happen, I didn't feel "burned" or let down. Sure, I should like to have gone in 1988. Who wouldn't have? But I was only encouraged by the fantastic "coincidences" at numeric complexities that the Lord has built into the fabric of the universe.

"People should not feel discouraged by the errant predictions of humans who are studying God's timetables. They should be all the more awed by the multiplied complexities that are revealed with each "wrong" prediction based on these studies. Every time a prediction fails to come to pass based on Scripture studies, God also reveals the further things that were needed before a predicted event could occur.

"Of course, I am very, very, very hopeful and excited at the possibility that the 1st Rapture could occur on or about 10 June 2000. It would be so great. I am very much looking forward with eager anticipation to this Pentecost for the very reason that Jesus is very likely to meet us in the air then. But, I won't be discouraged if the time is not then. I will be all the more intrigued, wondering: "I wonder what the Lord's true timing is?"

"Anyway, I pray that God will continue to provide insight into His perfect law of love through you and will bless you each day with the abundance that He has stored up for you in Heaven. Jesus is Lord, Your brother in Christ."

(May the Lord especially bless this fellow for his positive, Christlike outlook.)
