Carleton's daydream written two days ago but not posted because it seemed to early:

My daydream: I wonder if the tribulation(s) were considered as now and in the past, how many more people would be more serious in living their Christian lives in carefulness as witnesses of the Truth. I wonder while time remains how much more and beautiful and peaceful the Kingdom of God on/in earth would be. I wonder if Christians might be less nationalistic and more pilgrim and stranger like. I wonder if there would be less suing and hating and more love and mercy. I wonder if voting outside of the Church would be unnecessary. I wonder how much more the Church would be able to prove it's members in ways that the New Testament instructs. I wonder if Christian fellowship would bond believers in deeper long lasting ways where separation hurts. I wonder if then, the Christian would be a peculiar people as defenseless lambs and a great drawing to all unbelieving people. I wonder how clearly the Lord Jesus's message to come would be seen and heard and read in the lives of believing people.
