Last
Judgement and
the Second Coming of Christ
Keywords: Barbra Streisand, Alvinu Malkeinu, Everything Must Change, Vangelis
I'll find my way home
You ask me where to begin
Am I so lost in my sin
You ask me where did I fall
I'll say I can't tell you when
But if my spirit is lost
How will I find what is near
Don't question I'm not alone
Somehow I'll find my way home
My sun shall rise in the east
So shall my heart be at peace
And if you're asking me when
I'll say it starts at the end
You know your will to be free
Is matched with love secretly
And talk will alter your prayer
Somehow you'll find you are there
Your friend is close by your side
And speaks in far ancient tongue
A season's wish will come true
All seasons begin with you
One world we all come from
One world we melt into one
Just hold my hand and we're there
Somehow we're going somewhere
Somehow we're going somewhere
You ask me where to begin
Am I so lost in my sin
You ask me where did I fall
I'll say I can't tell you when
But if my spirit is strong
I know it can't be long
No questions I'm not alone
Somehow I'll find my way home
Somehow I'll find my way home
Somehow I'll find my way home
Somehow I'll find my way home
Jon Anderson and Vangelis
So what then is the Day of final Judgement and the Second Coming of Christ all about? Life has taught me that the only person I may judge is myself.
Alvinu Malkeinu
Sung during Rosh Ha' Shanah
Hear our prayer
We have sinned before Thee
Have compassion upon us and upon our children
Help us bring an end to pestilence, war, and famine
Cause all hate and oppression to vanish from the earth
Inscribe us for blessing in the Book Of Life
Let the new year be a good year for us

One aspect of the Final Judgement to me is that it is the period in history when the whole of the human race will become quiet and start asking themselves what life/histor-y has taught us over the ages, a time of introspection, a time of massive change, a time of forgiveness, reconciliation, enlightenment and, finally, a time for Joy and Love.
The Day of the Last Judgement will be that day in human history when all human beings on earth come to the full realization that it serves no purpose to speak any judgements over himself or herself and over his or her fellow humans any more, accepting everything and everybody in Unconditional Love. From that day onwards nobody will think, speak or act any judgements anymore.
Everything Must Change
Everything must change
Nothing stays the same
Everyone must change
No one stays the same
The young become the old
And mysteries do unfold
'Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged
There are not many things in life you can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
And hummingbirds do fly
Winter turns to spring
A wounded heart will heal
But, never much too soon
Yes, everything must change
The young become the old
And mysteries do unfold
'Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged
There are not many things in life you can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
And hummingbirds do fly
Rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
And music makes me cry
By Barbra Streisand
One aspect of the Second Coming of Christ to me is the following: the time in history when Mankind as a whole will start remembering "who We really are", where We came from and where our common Destiny lies. It is the time when every human will realize that he or she is a cell in the Body of Christ, the time that we will become concious that we all are a Christ, that we become Christ-concious.
Having judged myself I herewith include my confessions, the only way of freeing myself from guilt:
I performed a "Colours of Love Test" on myself and have to confess that I'm not perfect. I confess that in my zeal for finding the truth I have time and again walked over the emotions of other people, especially the feelings of my mother and my brother, the people closest to me. I have not understood what my father tried to teach me time and again about life and that is: you can only be a witness, you can only set an example, you cannot convince anybody of anything. I confess that innumerable times I have been impatient, unkind, envious, boastful, proud, rude, self-seeking and manipulative, angry, unforgiving and downright evil. Each day I get up in the morning telling myself that I should stop doing so. I try hard and I think I am slowly getting to the point where the opinion that other people have of me does not affect me anymore, that I find more and more peace within myself and not seek it, like an emotional parasite, from the people around me, draining them and myself of energy. I am very sorry that it has taken me so long to understand and make these facts of life my own.
