The beginning of the end times began with Christ's Advent. Christ's first advent rescues us from death and the devil through His death on the cross for our sins. When Christ comes again at His second advent, he will recreate the world. God is not slow, but patient; the more time that goes by, the more people are saved through Christ's work.

Second Sunday in Advent 12.06.20
