The goal of studying eschatology is not mere head knowledge or the disputes over the specific details. The goal is edification that promotes godly living. The goal is allowing the risen Lamb to live His victorious life through you. The goal is Gospel-centered, Holy Spirit-empowered transformation. And my friends, if you are living like that day-to-day, you will always be ready for whatever happens and whenever our Lord chooses to return (1 Thes. 5:4).
