ADVICE

Don't Build Faith On Date Calculations

  • Do not base your faith or Christianity's reputation on date-setting or precise rapture timing.
  • Focus on Scripture's clear commands to be ready, not on speculative timelines.
INSIGHT

Why 'No One Knows' Means Unknown

  • 'No one knows the day or the hour' means genuinely unknown timing, not a coded reference to a Jewish feast.
  • Mike argues Mark 13's context shows Jesus intends ongoing readiness, not feast-based predictability.
ADVICE

Teach Kids Using Familiar Concepts

  • When teaching theology to children, use simple terms and leverage what they already understand.
  • Keep explanations concrete and avoid unnecessary technical language until they're older.
