The Two-Minute Warning
Ike Reighard
Luke 21; 2 Peter 3
Introduction:
In professional football, one of the most exciting occurrences is the two-minute warning. In the fourth quarter, the last two minutes can often be the most chaotic and yet systemized times in the entire ball game.

"If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again." John 14:3.
C. S. Lewis (Oxford and Cambridge scholar) in his book, The World's Last Night, lists three reasons why people do not believe in Jesus's return.
1. It did not take place as the early church predicted. They asked, "Why hasn't Christ come. Why does He delay?" (Peter's answer is in 2 Peter 3.)
2. The theory of inevitable process. If we believe mankind is getting better, then we ...
