Let us not look at what is happening currently in Africa. Obviously,Africa is lost.
By conquest,the British missionaries introduced christianity to Africa, they failed to educate Africans first before preaching Bible.
Africans with their illiterate minds sustained the doctrines of missionaries even till this moment because,even the most educated African christian knows this teachings of end time or last day circulating in African churches till this moment,is a mirage spurn from inability of Africans to understand parables in the new testament.
Anyone who want to be educated first before picking up the Bible will sincerely ask, what are parables?
Parables are simply figurative languages,we were thought figure of speeches in schools,yet we are not making use of what we know to understand Bible even till this moment.
It's a pity.
In summary, 1 thes 4:16 and other scriptures do not teach any last day or end time, rather,the Bible teaches that Gods kingdom(heaven) is already on this earth today,and it will last forever. No end.
Think about it and fight for what bbelong to you, sue the government for not being accountable.
this earth is your right
