Gone

In Matthew 24:36 (NKJV) Jesus said:

“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of Heaven, but my Father only.”

The poem below mentions ‘The Bright Morning Star’; this is a common pseudonym for Jesus Christ.

Thunder rolled and lightning lit the darkening sky

Mighty Arms reach out

As ‘The Bright Morning Star’ rides high

 

With a loud shout

He gathers in

To finish all sin

 

Above, His radiance shone

Then everyone

Fell down

With heads bent low

 

The world shook

And loosed from chains

His beloved He took

In Matthew 24: 40-42 (NKJV) Jesus also said:

“Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.”
