"Beware, brothers,
for fear there should ever develop in any one of you
a wicked heart lacking faith
by drawing away from the living God;
but keep on encouraging one another
each day,
as long as it is called “Today,”
so that none of you should become hardened
by the deceptive power of sin." Heb. 3:12, 13.

"What do you perceive?",
the 'Ancient of Days'
makes of 'we' this sublime inquiry
as our "Earth
rotates once in about 24 hours
with respect to the Sun,
but once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 seconds
with respect to other distant stars."
"Scientists reported that in 2020 Earth
had started spinning faster,
after consistently spinning slower than 86, 400 seconds
per day
in the decades before.
On June 29, 2022,
Earth's spin was completed in 1.59 milliseconds
under 24 hours,
setting a new record.3" Great minds
active and keeping score.
"Because of that trend, engineers worldwide are discussing
a 'negative leap second' and other possible timekeeping measures.4
This increase in speed is thought to be
due to various factors,
including the complex motion
of its molten core, oceans,
and atmosphere,
the effect of celestial bodies
such as the Moon,
and possibly climate change,
which is causing the ice at Earth's poles to melt. "

Instilling global fear,
since not being considered
Divine prophecy: “The righteous will possess the earth,
and they will live forever on it.” Ps. 37:29.
God “has established the earth on its foundations;
it will not be moved from its place forever and ever.” Ps. 104:5.
“A generation is going, and a generation is coming,
but the earth remains forever.” Eccl. 1:4.
Do not underestimate the Almighty's power:
"The little one will become a thousand
And the small one a mighty nation.
I myself, Jehovah, will speed it up
in its own time.”" Isa. 60:22.
So again: "What do you perceive?",
the 'Ancient of Days'
makes of 'we' this sublime inquiry.

Let us not be deceived:
"Do not be misled:
God is not one to be mocked.
For whatever a person is sowing,
this he will also reap;
because the one sowing with a view to his flesh
will reap corruption from his flesh,
but the one sowing with a view to the spirit
will reap everlasting life from the spirit.
So let us not give up in doing what is fine,
for in due time
we will reap
if we do not tire out." Gal. 6:7-9.
Yes, "the time left is reduced.
"The end of all things has drawn close.
Therefore, be sound in mind, and be vigilant
with a view to prayers."
"And do this because you know
the season,
that it is already the hour
for you to awake from sleep,
for now our salvation is nearer than at the time
when we became believers." 1 Cor. 7:29: 1 Pet. 4:7: Rom. 13:11.
