Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?" The watchman said, "The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire; Return! Come back!" Isaiah 21:11-12 Did you ever wonder what it would be like to live as part of biblical times, and to have your life as part of the story? Wonder no more. You are. In all of the Bible the most talked about generation is not that of Moses or Joshua or even the Lord Jesus, the most talked about generation is the generation alive at the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. An enormous amount of the Bible is written just to that generation. It is true that application of the teaching applies to many issues between the first and second coming of Jesus, but the focus is the last generation, our generation. This book will share the biblical and historical reason for such a statement to be made and why it is obvious that Jesus wants us to know the generation of His return. We will explore not only why Jesus wants us to know, but what He wants us to do in response. We each have the opportunity to choose our place in the biblical history by our responses. In Old Testament walled cities, the watchman bore an important responsibility. While the people of the city slept, it was the watchman's responsibility to stay awake and keep watch on the city walls. He would watch for the danger of approaching enemies. He would watch for internal dangers, such as an outbreak of fire. The watchman's responsibility was to warn the city of danger and mobilize them for response. As the watchman of Isaiah 21:11,12 keeps watch, someone asks him, "Watchman, what of the night?" It was a typical question. The hoped for answer is, "All is well." As the watchman answers back, though, he gives a response that seems a contradiction. The watchman reports signs indicating both morning and night are coming. How could the watchman be looking at the same signs and see both the coming of dawn and the coming of night? Yet the answer to that question, is the same answer which causes us to look to our world and see the evidence in the Bible and current affairs that reaches the same conclusion. The morning comes and also the night. As we will look at the fulfillment of signs from the Bible in our generation, they tell us, "Morning is coming!" The promise of Jesus that one day He will return and take the church home as His bride is about to be fulfilled. What has been the blessed hope of the Christian since Jesus left, is now about to happen. We are told in 2 Peter 1:19, "And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts"; The long time of living in what C. S. Lewis calls the "Shadowlands" is about over. Any moment now, Jesus will come back with those who have passed through death as believers in Christ, and resurrect His church, and take her home as His bride. "Watchman, what of the night? ...The morning comes..." The watchman also said the same signs indicate night is coming. The Day of the Lord is about to happen. It is a day of darkness. It is a day of judgment. God is about to judge this world. The warning signs of the coming of judgment are all around us. The same signs that indicate Jesus will soon take His church home, also indicate that the Tribulation and seven years of increasing horrors and the reality of God's judgment are about to come. We will see why God wants us to take the warnings of the judgments of Revelation with great seriousness. Revelation is not fairy tales. It is deadly serious history about to happen. I remember after the fall of the Soviet Empire, and the establishment of many independent republics in what was once the Soviet Union, an interview of a justice in the equivalent of the Russian Supreme Court. The interviewer noted a painting prominently displayed in the
