How many times have we heard it,
From famous preachers and more,
When it comes to Christ's Return,
They have said He is at the door.

Over and over they have told us,
While the years keep passing by,
Something's seriously wrong here,
Have they been promoting a lie?

Clearly, every single one of them,
Has eventually fallen on their face,
One false prediction after another,
It is really such a terrible disgrace.

But why do they all keep failing?
What is it that they refuse to see?
Now if I may offer my own opinion,
They've misunderstood prophecy.

Yes, trying to force the Scriptures,
To conform to their point of view,
Is not the way to teach the Bible,
It could result in a confusing stew.

If they try to make some verse say,
What the Lord just did not intend,
There is certainly a good chance,
The Most High they could offend.

Rather than be true messengers,
Sharing the light of God's Word,
They’ll be misguided messengers,
Spouting off something so absurd.

It's only by revelation of the Spirit,
That true understanding will arise,
We must humbly forsake our ideas,
So that He can open both our eyes.

Each verse will then fall into place,
With so very little effort on our part,
There won't be a need to struggle,
God's truth will just flood our heart.
