The phenomenon of the dark day is a historical fact; br A sign to all biblical students Jesus is coming back; br Coming to take the redeemed of the earth home; br Who were once pilgrims and strangers no longer to roam; br br Read Matthew Chapter 24 and verse 29; br You will find the dark day prophesied--sublime; br On May 19, 1780 this prophecy was fulfilled; br Exactly as prophesied, after many Christians were killed; br br The day gradually grew dark and the sun would not give light; br Anxiety and awe filled people's mind with fright; br Everything was stopped as workers, school children and travelers fled home; br Fowls retired to their roosts and went to sleep, birds sang their evening song; br br Humans knew that night had not come and managed the home by candle light; br An hour or two before evening in a partially clear sky was eerie sun light; br Read Joel Chapter 2 and verse 31; br "...before the great and terrible day of the Lord come."; br br "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood"; br With this prophecy fulfilled once it should be understood; br The Saviour pointed out to His followers the signs of His return; br So we would take heed, watch and pray, be ready--discern.
