"Why therefore do we not reject every care of earthly actions and prepare ourselves for the meeting of the Lord Christ, so that he may draw us from the confusion, which overwhelms all the world?
"Believe you me, dearest brothers and sisters, the coming (second advent) of the Lord is nigh, the end of the world is at hand, because it is the very last times. Or do you not believe unless you see with your eyes?
“Woe to those who desire to wait to see the Great Tribulation Day of the Lord! For all the saints and elect of God are being gathered, prior to the tribulation that is to come, and are taken to the Lord lest they see the confusion that is to overwhelm the world because of our sins. And so, brothers and sisters most dear to me, it is the eleventh hour, and the end of the world comes to the harvest, and angels, armed and prepared, hold sickles in their hands, awaiting to gather the empire of the Lord."
Saint Ephraim
