> I am a deeply religious person and this is something I take seriously. I think 2007 will see other things happen, but I don't think the return will take place then.Friends,
It is written here,[...when the people of the earth are ready, He will come...we should watch and ..prepare..to greet Him..it will be too late..the return...]
I am unsure as to what the above entails. Could any of the following, in your opinions, be what the above means?
A. The {people of the earth} are {all} the people?
B. The {people of the earth} are only Christians?
C. The {people of the earth} are the Jews?
D. The {people of the earth} are something other than those listed above
If I could have more knowlege of what the above entails, I could offer support from my perspective.
