It is very important for the people of God to know the meaning of the times in which we live.
God is always moving forward but He is having to bring His people back from where they have deviated from His intention and plan.
Man never really learns anything theoretically. Man really learns anything only by experience.
Everything in Christianity depends on the meaning of Jesus Christ. The main thing is a revelation of a Person inwardly. God reveals His Son "in us".
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
32 And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.
