✦ MADE SIMPLE
But the day when Jesus returns will hit like a thief breaking in at night — totally unexpected. When that happens, the sky will disappear with this massive roar, everything will melt from intense heat, and the earth plus everything humans have built on it will burn up completely.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Jesus is coming back when you least expect it, and when he does, everything gets a complete reset.
