Frequently the question is
asked. Do you think that we
are living in the lost days ?
To this question I must answer
Yes I do However, the
term last days needs to be
defined as used in the Bible
The term last days as
used in the Bible refers to the
last age. In a study of the
Bible it will be seen thol
there are three ages or
dispensations. They are the
Patriarchal. Mosaic and
Christian. The Patriarchal and
Mosaic age ended with the
death of Jesus on the cross.
The Christian age began fifty
days later on the first
Pentecost after the
resurrection of Jesus from the
dead The Christian age will
continue until the second
coming of Jesus. In the Bible
the entire Christian age is
called the last doys because
it will be the lost age
This can be seen from a
study of the scriptures where
the expression lost doys is
used The prophets Isoioh.
Micah and Joel foretold some
things that would occur in the
lost days " (See Isaiah 2 2;
Micah 44 1 and Joel 2 28).
These events were fulfilled in
Acts 2. The last days began
fifty days after Jesus died
Peter specifically pointed out
that these people were
seeing the last days (Acts 2
17). Hebrews 1 2 indicates
that we ore presently living in
the lost days following Jesus
II Timothy 3: I and II Peter 3 3
indicate some dangers of this
last age, John indicates that
the last days ore during his
life time (I Johen 2: 18).
There is nothing to indicate
that there ore some lost days
within the last days. The
entire Christian ooge is the
last doys At the end of this
age Jesus is coming, but of
that day ond hour knoweth no
mon. no. not the angels of
heaven but my Father only
