The term “At Hand” is from the Greek word “ἐγγύς, and means near, close, imminent, and about to happen.

At hand means within reach, at any moment on time and at your door, obtainable and useable.

So that in New Testament terms, when the Gospel of “The Kingdom of God at hand” is preached, is to mean within reach as an obtainable goal. If it was at hand back then and now, and back then they didn’t get the Kingdom, and today people are left wanting and waiting for it to come again? Where is The Kingdom of God?

Christ taught that “they will tell you to look here and look there. DO NOT GO AFTER THEM for the Kingdom . He answered them and said “but The Kingdom is within you”.

So even now, if someone preaches another coming Jesus with another coming Kingdom as though it isn’t here but will appear, are just as wayward as the seekers in Christ’s day we’re condemned for doing so.

So that if you are looking into “End Times” and are a second coming seeker? You are where the Jews left off and were wiped out till “not one brick would be left upon another.” For believing the same thing.

If He warned them that “they will say look here or look there, do not follow them for they are blind leading the blind”. And you like, subscribe and follow them anyway? Then you too are just as wayward as that generation of which it was said “oh Jerusalem the ones who stones, kills and rejects all those who are sent to you (proclaiming His Kingdom at hand). That you too may be subject to the same judgements and fires of Hell in the same way. We refer to the fires of Hell as the burning sensation of lost opportunities”. You could have, should have, and would have if you only knew? So now you do.

The Kingdom of God is at hand. And there is no Second Coming Jesus with another dose of savings or the first saving, Savior, Christ, Lord and King, is the imposter.

Was His life sufficient or not. And did He save or didn’t He. And if we preach and speak of something yet to come, then the term “At Hand” means something else. And we will close with this. The phrase “Second Coming” is not found once in scripture. But He saved each one of us in our own order of time throughout eternity. That’s His signature. His words alive in us are Eternal.

So “The Kingdom of God is at hand” and some of them back then had it, and some of us “Today” have it too. For “Today is (still) the day of Salvation.” But the window of opportunity is closing soon. And there will be those invited to this wedding feast, who went to the world for their attire? To wake up to this alarming reply “Depart from Me you workers of iniquity for I FOR NOT KNOW YOU FROM WHERE YOU ARE AT!

Every article here explains this.
