If you ever want time to think, come get a job at the fruit orchard. Out there, there's nothing but time to think--time to think and peach fuzz. So I was out there thinking, and somehow my cerebral sauntering took me to the phrase: "Repent ye for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." It came to me with the whole "ye" attached and everything. And the first thing I thought of was people on street corners with signs.
Then I started thinking (dangerous): I've always felt like that verse is about judgement and I guess it is. But the kingdom of heaven is wonderful. The verse does not explicitly say "Repent ye for the judgement of the wicked is at hand" though that seems to be implied. Repentance though, is preparation for the everlasting party.
It's not death that comes over the next hill but life out of death.
