STOP letting this ONE VERSE shut down your blessed hope!
For YEARS, Christians have weaponized "no one knows the day or hour" to attack anyone watching for Christ's return. But they're making a MASSIVE theological error that changes everything.
What You'lI Learn: Why the incarnate Jesus didn't know vs. the ascended Jesus who DOES? How the Mary/Martha deception is playing out TODAY? Why "no one knows" critics sound exactly like Martha?
The authentication signature proving God is speaking NOW. How to respond when people attack your rapture watching.
KEY MOMENTS:
1 - The "No One Knows" Weapon
2 - Jesus HAD to Empty Himself
3 - But Then He Ascended
4 - The Mary/Martha Parallel EXPOSED
5 - Why Critics Can't Hear His Voice
6 - The Choice: Martha's Work vs. Mary's Intimacy
THE BOTTOM LINE: The ascended Jesus who sent Revelation KNOWS the future. The question isn't His knowledge - it's whether you're choosing Martha's kitchen or Mary's intimacy.
• KEY SCRIPTURES:·
Philippians 2:7 (He emptied Himself)
· Luke 10:38-42 (Mary chose the better part)
· Revelation 1:1 (Things that must shortly come to pass)
· Luke 21:36 (Pray to be counted worthy to escape)
· Matthew 24:36 (No one knows - PAST TENSE)
"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only." - Matthew 24:36
The incarnate Jesus spoke these words. The ascended Jesus sent Revelation. Which Jesus are YOU listening to?
Chapter 1: The "No One Knows" Weapon
All right, let me put this to rest once and for all. I've had no one knows the day or hour thrown at me so many times I had to go to therapy to remember how to tell time. What time is it, Brian?
No one knows the day or hour. But you know what?
I used to use this verse the exact same way. I've seen so many conversations shut down about timing with this one verse until I discovered something that changed everything.
What if we've been misunderstanding who Jesus was when he spoke these words?
Here's what I discovered when I really started digging into this. I thought, well, when Jesus came to Earth, he didn't arrive as a fully formed, all- knowing deity walking around in a human costume. I mean, Philippians 2 tells us something pretty incredible that he emptied himself.
Chapter 2: Jesus HAD to Empty Himself
Now, think about what that means. He became an embryo. He had to learn to walk, talk, even pray and hear from the father just like we do.
This hit me when I was thinking about Gethsemane.
How many times did Jesus ask for his cup to pass from him? And what does that tell us?
He was operating through faith just like we do.
He was relying on the same method of communication with the Father that you and I use.
So when the disciples asked him about the timing of his return and he said, "No one knows the day or hour," he was speaking from his incarnate state, limited by time, operating within our dimensions that we're stuck in here." Of course , he didn't know then.
He had emptied down everything out of themselves uh to be just like us in keeping with the rules. But here's where it gets interesting. After his resurrection,
Chapter 3: But Then He Ascended...
Jesus ascended to be seated at the right hand of the father.
And what's one of the first things that he does?
He calls up his favorite courier service. Eggo, I got a message for John.
Oh, yeah. What about uh just some things that must shortly come to pass?
Now, this made me wonder, why didn't Jesus just tell John this when he was physically with him?
Wouldn't that have been more efficient, more credible, and with more witnesses?
And then it hit me because he didn't know then.
But now, now he knows the future. The entire book of Revelation is Jesus demonstrating he's returned to his omniscient state.
OMNISCIENT definition: having complete or unlimited knowledge, awareness, or understanding; perceiving all things.
He's able to describe all manner of future events to apostle John in great detail.
So here is the question that started changing everything for me. If the ascended Jesus knows enough to send detailed prophecies about the future, does he still not know the day or the hour?
But then I found something else that kind of blew my mind. Amos 3:7, it says, "Surely the Lord God does nothing unless he reveals his secret to his servants, the prophets.
Now, think about that for a moment. God doesn't do anything without first warning His people.
That's his established pattern throughout scripture.
Now, over in the New Testament, we're told something interesting in the book of Hebrews.
We're told we would see the day approaching.
Wait a minute.
If no one can know anything about timing, how could we possibly see the day approaching?
Do you see the problem?
Either God's word was wrong when he said we'd see it approaching or the no one knows crowd is missing something huge.
Either God is violating his own Amos 3:7 pattern for the first time in history or he is revealing timing to those who are intimate with him just like he always has.
What if all these confirmations people are receiving worldwide aren't coincidence or delusion?
What if God is keeping his Amos 3:7 promise right now?
What if the reason some are hearing about timing while others aren't doesn't have anything to do with his knowledge and everything to do with intimacy?
Chapter 4: The Mary/Martha Parallel EXPOSED
This led me to look at a story that I thought I understood really well. Mary and Martha, but I started seeing it completely differently.
Martha's in the kitchen. She's stressed out. She's doing, you know, kingdom work, hospitality, service, feeding people, important stuff that needed doing. Mary is sitting at Jesus' feet, seemingly doing nothing productive, just listening to him, being present. And then Martha says something that is shocking. She comes out and she says, "Hey, Jesus, tell her to help me. Look at all this work that needs to be done." Do you hear it?
The exact same spirit I was hearing directed at rapture watchers. Stop wasting time looking for Jesus. Get to work. Feed the poor. Evangelize. Fix your doctrine. Stop being selfish.
Martha defending important work while missing the intimate moment with Jesus Christ.
Listen to Jesus response carefully.
Martha, Martha, you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed. Indeed, only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken from her.
What was the better part that would not be taken from Mary? The intimate knowledge of his voice, his heart, his timing.
When Jesus left that house, I realized something.
Mary would recognize his voice when he called because she'd been listening. She'd been really present.
Martha knew his words, his needs, and even his preferences. But Mary knew his heart.
Maybe the reason some of us are receiving confirmations about timing while others are not is the same reason Mary heard things Martha missed.
Proximity. Intimacy.
Actually listening instead of just working.
This got me thinking about something else. I've been analyzing all these signs people received, you know, worldwide about September 2025. And could it have been deception?
Here is what I discovered.
God's signature of authentication has always been timing. He knows the future from all perspectives, every angle, every person's response.
If this were deception, it would require the enemy to be omnipresent and omnipotent.
But scripture shows Satan operates with limited resources. Signs requiring multiple coordinated factors across the entire globe beyond any finite entity's capabilities.
They have to clearly be coming from somewhere else other than our enemy. Where else can they come from?
Jesus prophecied specific things in Revelation. Churches have lampstands removed exactly as he promised.
His post ascension prophecies have been authenticating themselves for 2,000 years.
So the ascended glorified Jesus who sent detailed prophecies about the future, he knows.
The question is not his knowledge anymore. I started wondering why do some people get so upset when others watch expectantly for His return.
I think l understand now. When others openly express conviction about his imminent return, it challenges our comfortable distance, our protective systems that keep us from dealing with readiness issues.
It is easier to deflect with focus on the work of the kingdom. Do you see how righteous that sounds?
How it can make intimate watchers feel selfish for wasting time looking for Jesus Christ?
But here is what I discovered.
How strengthening it is to genuinely embrace that blessed hope. And how invigorating to my faith to encourage one another as we see the day approaching. Wait, he said we'd see the day approaching.
How is that possible if no one can know anything about timing?
Chapter 5: Why Critics Can't Hear His Voice
Unless some are meant to see because they're listening like Mary because they've chosen the better part.
This led me to another realization.
Jesus Christ said, "The greatest commandment is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength."
Wait, he's supposed to be more important in serving others, more important than all the Martha work?
Looking at Mary and Martha again, I saw there is a choice involved.
Yes, service is necessary and beautiful, but there is a choice for something even better.
When you're in intimate proximity with Jesus Christ, he does the heavy lifting.
What did he say?
My yoke is what? Easy.
And my burden is what? Light.
If you're labouring in duty like Martha, it's natural to mistake others intimacy is neglect.
Just like the prodigal son's older brother or the early workers in the vineyard parable.
But Jesus always kept those most interested in him close.
The three apostles at the mount of transfiguration,
John at the last supper, and yes, they sometimes received special revelation.
Chapter 6: The Choice: Martha's Work vs. Mary's Intimacy
So, here is what I have decided.
Intimacy and closeness to Jesus Christ is where I want to be. Not because it makes me better than anyone else, but because I'm choosing to put him first above everything, especially my own comfort.
That's not self-service. That's what love looks like. Wanting to be close to the one you love.
When someone throws statement like , "no one knows the day or hour" at me, I now know and I understand what's happening.
They're quoting the incarnate Jesus who emptied himself while ignoring the ascended Jesus who sends revelations.
And I wonder, are they choosing Martha's important work or Mary's necessary intimacy?
The ascended Lord Jesus Christ knows. Amos 3:7 says he reveals his secrets to his servants.
The confirmations worldwide suggest he is doing exactly that. The question is not his knowledge.
It is whether we want to be Mary or Martha whenever he speaks.
I found that Jesus Christ is still speaking to those who will sit at his feet
I found that he's still speaking to those who will sit at his feet and listen. The Martha work will always be there, but this window for intimate preparation, it won't last forever.
Mary chose what would not be taken from her. The intimate knowledge of his voice, his timing, and his heart. I'm choosing the better part.
Not because I have to, but because I want to know him, not just know about him.
He emptied himself to become like us.
But he didn't stay empty, did he? He ascended. He knows. And today, he's sharing with those who are listening.
Which are you choosing?

“无人知晓那日子或时辰”——梦游基督徒的口头禅
别让这短短一节经文扼杀你蒙福的盼望！
多年来，基督徒一直利用“没有人知道那日子、那时辰”来攻击所有盼望基督再来的人。但他们犯了一个巨大的神学错误，这个错误将彻底改变一切。
你将学到：为什么道成肉身的耶稣不知道，而升天的耶稣却知道？马利亚/马大的故事在今天是如何上演的？为什么那些批评“没有人知道”的人听起来和马大如出一辙？
证明上帝此刻正在说话的权威印记。当有人攻击你对被提的盼望时，该如何回应。
关键时刻：
1 - “无人知晓”的武器
2 - 耶稣必须虚己
3 - 但随后他升天了
4 - 马利亚/马大平行关系的揭示
5 - 批评者为何听不到他的声音
6 - 选择：马大的劳作还是马利亚的亲密关系
结论：升天的耶稣，也就是启示录的作者，知道未来。问题不在于他是否知道，而在于你选择的是马大的厨房还是马利亚的亲密关系。
• 关键经文：
腓立比书 2:7（祂虚己）
路加福音 10:38-42（马利亚选择了上好的福分）
启示录 1:1（必须快要发生的事）
路加福音 21:36（祈求被算为配得逃脱）
马太福音 24:36（无人知晓 - 过去式）
“但那日子、那时辰，没有人知道，连天上的使者也不知道，子也不知道，惟有父知道。” - 马太福音 24:36
道成肉身的耶稣说了这些话。升天的耶稣赐下了启示录。你听的是哪位耶稣的话呢？
第一章：“无人知晓”的武器
好了，让我一劳永逸地解决这个问题。 “没人知道今天是几号，几点了？”这句话我听了太多遍，以至于我不得不去看心理医生才能想起来怎么看时间。布莱恩，现在几点了？
没人知道今天是几号，几点了。但你知道吗？
我以前也用这句经文来解释时间。我见过太多关于时间的讨论因为这句经文而戛然而止，直到我发现了一些改变一切的事情。
如果我们一直误解了耶稣说这些话时的身份呢？
当我真正深入研究这个问题时，我发现了以下几点。我想，耶稣来到世上时，他并不是以一个完全成形、无所不知的神明的身份，披着人皮四处走动。我的意思是，《腓立比书》2章告诉我们一件非常不可思议的事情：他虚己。
第二章：耶稣必须虚己
现在，想想这意味着什么。他变成了一个胚胎。 他必须像我们一样，学习走路、说话，甚至祷告，聆听天父的声音。
当我想到客西马尼园时，这一点深深触动了我。
耶稣多少次求神挪去他所受的苦杯？这又告诉我们什么呢？
他像我们一样，凭着信心行事。
他依靠的，正是你我与天父沟通的方式。
所以当门徒问他何时再来时，他说：“没有人知道那日子、那时辰。”他当时是以肉身之躯说话，受时间限制，身处我们所处的这个维度。当然，他当时并不知道。
他为了遵守规则，舍弃了一切，与我们一样。但有趣的是，在他复活之后，
第三章：他升天了……
耶稣升天，坐在父的右边。
他做的第一件事是什么？
他打电话给他最喜欢的快递公司。“Eggo，我给约翰捎个信。”
“哦，是吗？是一些即将发生的事。”
这让我不禁思考，为什么耶稣不在约翰面前直接告诉他这些事呢？
那样岂不是更有效率，更…… 更可信，而且有更多证人？
然后我突然意识到，因为他当时并不知道。
但现在，他知道未来。整本《启示录》都是耶稣在证明他已经恢复了全知全能的状态。
全知全能的定义：拥有完整或无限的知识、意识或理解；感知一切事物。
他能够非常详细地向使徒约翰描述各种未来的事件。
所以，这个问题开始彻底改变我的想法。如果升天的耶稣知道足够多的事情，能够发出关于未来的详细预言，难道他仍然不知道具体的日子和时辰吗？
但后来我发现了一些让我大吃一惊的事情。《阿摩司书》3:7说：“主耶和华若不将奥秘指示他的仆人众先知，就一无所成。”
现在，请仔细想想这句话。上
帝不会在没有事先警告他的子民的情况下就做任何事。
这是他在整本圣经中一贯的模式。
现在，在新约圣经的希伯来书中，我们读到了一些有趣的事情。
经文告诉我们，我们将看到那日子临近。
等一下。
如果没人能预知时间，我们又怎么可能看到那一天临近呢？
你看出问题所在了吗？
要么是上帝说我们会看到那一天临近时，他的话是错的；要么是那些认为无人知晓的人忽略了什么重要的东西。
要么是上帝有史以来第一次违背了他在阿摩司书3章7节中自己设定的模式；要么是他像以往一样，正在向那些与他亲近的人揭示时间。
如果全世界的人们所收到的这些印证并非巧合或错觉呢？
如果上帝此刻正在信守他在阿摩司书3章7节中的承诺呢？
如果有些人听到关于时间的消息，而有些人却没有听到，这并非因为他知道，而是因为与他亲近呢？
第四章：马利亚/马大平行事件揭秘
这让我重新审视了一个我自以为很了解的故事。 玛丽和马大，但我开始以完全不同的视角看待这件事。
马大在厨房里。她很焦虑。她忙着做着天国的事，招待客人，服侍他人，喂饱穷人，这些都是必须做的重要事情。玛丽坐在耶稣脚边，似乎什么也没做，只是聆听他的教诲，陪伴着他。然后，马大说了一句令人震惊的话。她走出来，说：“耶稣，叫她来帮我。看看这些工作，有多少要做呢？” 你听出来了吗？
我听到的，正是对那些盼望末日审判的人所说的：别再浪费时间寻找耶稣了。赶紧行动起来。喂饱穷人。传福音。修正你的教义。别再自私了。
马大在为重要的工作辩护，却错过了与耶稣基督亲密相处的时刻。
仔细听耶稣的回应。
马大，马大，你为许多事操心烦扰，但真正需要的却很少。实际上，只需要一件。 玛丽选择了那上好的福分，这福分是不能从她夺去的。
那上好的福分是什么呢？是与耶稣亲密相交，了解他的声音、他的心意、他的时机。
耶稣离开那所房子时，我意识到了一件事。
玛丽能认出他的声音，因为她一直在聆听。她真正地在场。
马大知道耶稣的话语、他的需要，甚至他的喜好。但玛丽了解他的心意。
也许我们有些人能收到关于时机的印证，而有些人却没有，原因与玛丽听到马大错过的信息的原因相同。
亲近。亲密。
真正地聆听，而不是只顾着工作。
这让我想到另一件事。我一直在分析人们在世界各地收到的关于2025年9月的各种迹象。这会不会是欺骗呢？
以下是我的发现。
上帝的印记始终是时机。 他洞悉未来，从各个角度、每个角落，甚至每个人的反应都了如指掌。
如果这是欺骗，那么敌人就必须无所不在、无所不能。
但圣经表明，撒旦的行动资源有限。这些预兆需要全球范围内多个因素的协调配合，远超任何有限实体的能力范围。
它们显然并非来自我们的敌人。还能来自哪里呢？
耶稣在《启示录》中预言了具体的事情。正如他所应许的，教会的灯台已被移除。
他升天后的预言已经验证了两千年之久。
因此，那位升天后荣耀的耶稣，他曾发出关于未来的详细预言，他确知一切。
问题不再在于他是否知晓。我开始思考，为什么有些人对其他人满怀期待地等待他的再来感到如此不安。
我想我现在明白了。 当其他人公开表达对祂即将再来的坚定信念时，这会挑战我们习以为常的疏离感，挑战我们用来逃避面对准备问题的保护机制。
专注于天国的事工更容易让我们转移注意力。你听听这话多么自以为义吧？
这又会让那些虔诚的信徒觉得自己浪费时间寻找耶稣基督是自私的吗？
但我发现：
真心拥抱这蒙福的盼望是多么令人振奋。当我们彼此鼓励，共同迎接那日临近时，我的信仰又是多么充满活力。等等，祂说我们会盼望那日临近。
如果没人能预知时间，这怎么可能呢？
第五章：批评者为何听不到祂的声音
除非有些人注定要看见，因为他们像马利亚一样聆听，因为他们选择了上好的福分。
这让我有了另一个领悟。
耶稣基督说：“最大的诫命就是尽心、尽性、尽意、尽力爱主你的神。”
等等，难道他应该在服侍他人方面更重要，比马大所做的一切更重要吗？
再次审视马利亚和马大，我发现其中存在着选择。
是的，服侍是必要且美好的，但还有一种选择，那就是更好的选择。
当你与耶稣基督亲密相交时，他会为你承担一切重担。
他说了什么？
我的轭是什么？容易的。
我的负担是什么？轻省。
如果你像马大一样忙于工作，很容易误以为与他人亲近就是忽略自己。
就像浪子的哥哥，或是葡萄园里早起的工人一样。
但耶稣总是与那些最关心他的人保持亲近。
登山变像时的三位使徒，
最后的晚餐上的约翰，是的，他们有时还会得到特别的启示。
第六章：选择：马大的劳作与马利亚的亲密
所以，我决定了。
我渴望与耶稣基督亲密相伴。这并非因为我比别人优越，而是因为我选择将他放在首位，甚至高于我自己的舒适。
这不是自私自利。这就是爱的模样：渴望与你所爱的人亲近。
当有人对我抛出“无人知晓那日子、那时辰”这样的说法时，我现在明白了，也理解了正在发生的一切。
他们引用道成肉身的耶稣虚己的话语，却忽略了升天后赐予启示的耶稣。
我不禁要问，他们是在选择马大的重要工作，还是马利亚必要的亲密关系？
升天的耶稣基督知道一切。阿摩司书3:7说，他会将奥秘启示给他的仆人。
世界各地的印证表明，他正是这样做的。问题不在于他是否知道。
问题在于，每当他说话时，我们想成为马利亚还是马大。
我发现，耶稣基督仍然在对那些愿意坐在他脚前的人说话。
我发现，他仍然在对那些愿意坐在他脚前聆听的人说话。马大的工作永远都在那里，但这亲密预备的窗口期不会永远持续下去。
马利亚选择了那无法从她那里夺走的东西。 对他的声音、他的节奏和他的内心有着深刻的了解。我选择更好的那一部分。
不是因为我必须这样做，而是因为我想认识他，而不仅仅是了解他。
他舍弃自己，成为像我们一样的人。
但他并没有一直保持空虚，不是吗？他升天了。他知道一切。今天，他正在与那些聆听的人分享。
你选择哪一部分？
