He could show up at any moment. No one knows the hour of his return. I would rather live my life knowing that there is a God then die to find out that there isn't than to live my life believing there isn't a God then die to find out that there is a God.

Your comment make me think about many people question in the world today. That is an important question and it need to be answer. The reason is because Jehovah is not partial respecting his promises. According 2 Peter 3:9, he desired is not for many to be destroyed but for many to gain repentance. If God do destroyed the wicked now and end this wicked system of things, some people will be left that have not know him. Jesus said at Matthew 24:14 "This Good news of the kingdom must be preached in all the inhabited earth, for a witness to all the nation and then the end will come. That is the reason Jehovah God and his son Jesus Christ has intervene in mankind today. for further information visit www.watchtower.org

Very, very good question.
Maybe just maybe He is not going to do what everyone thinks he is going to do.
Heck, when he came the first time what did he do? He disappointed everyone by just dying. Whats up with that?! OK so then he resurrected - great new they thought - now we take over. Oh no - what does he do? He floats away leaving them holding the bag.
Look at whats happening - nothing. Only death and a promise. Maybe He IS at peace with whats going on here and we are not. That is of course until we die, then we will be at peace too.

There's been hate and evil in the world from the very beginning - even when God was (according to the Bible) taking an active and direct part in it. The reason is that God respects free will and most people have exercised that free will to reject God and God's ways.

He has been doing something, He's been showing His love to those who would choose to recieve it so that they can pass it along. If you have recieved this precious gift from Him, my sincere question to you is, what are 'you' doing to make this world a better place? I agree, this world is overflowing with darkness. Yet I also believe God has been giving us power and responsibility to take over that darkness with the light of His love! I still have moments when I have the same feelings as you, but I'm beginning to discover my God-given authority to kick satan's b---! Jesus already defeated him, and has given us His Holy Spirit power to do the same!!! I say, "Brother, Get your SWORD out and start fightin'!

God wrote the best time when world will need return of Jesus the most. Remember God knows future events and when every event will happen. So He always sent the Propphets when they needed and He will send Jesus also when he will be needed here the most.

Patience, patience.
The global witness is not finished yet.
God has a set day in which He is going to bring an end to all this wickedness and corruption along with destruction.
Brace yourselves, because it is going to get a lot worse, sorry to report, but it is in the Bible--the end of this, Satan's system. Matthew 24: 1-44.
We have 26 years left. I don't know the day, just the year, 2034.

He is Waitng till Every one has had the chance to Know the name of Jesus. There are people in 3rd world countries that haven't heard the "Good News". People in small pockets of America probably haven't heard either.

It's OK to ask why..... But we must ask 'why' also:
*Why don't we stand up and do something about the
hate and evil that our own citizens create?
*Why don't Christians stand up and be counted?
*Why do we just complain and do nothing?
*Why don't we spread His love?
*Why don't we put a stop to this 'politically correct' junk!
*Why don't we 'pick up our cross and follow Him?
.........Maybe that's what He's waiting for!!!
