Rev. 7 & the SA in 10 years

"I haven't seen any comment on the blogosphere about Commissioner Clifton's Revelation 7 prediction (prophecy?) of The Salvation Army in ten years. It is staggering. Your thoughts?"

He's referring to an earlier post on the ArmyBarmy blog:
"a shocker from Commissioner Clifton, recounting a conversation with a person asking her how she sees The Salvation Army looking in ten years... Her response: "a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb" (you'll know this from Rev 7:9). A stunning, prophetic response - bloggers, gear up your comments..."

Well, this was part of my message yesterday, as we've been having ethnic riots here in Tallinn between Estonians and Russians. :-( So my emphasis was on "EVERY tribe, people, language"! But as far as a prophecy that we'll all be in heaven within the next ten years, my only response is from the words of Jesus.

MK 13:32 "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come."

And of course:
REV 22:20 He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon."
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
REV 22:21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people. Amen.
