...will He really find faith on the earth?

"I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?” Luke 18:8 NKJV

One of the most timely questions asked by The Lord as it relates to The Lords return. A profound question asked by Jesus himself! Will He really find faith on earth? Many nowadays are proclaiming to believe in Jesus, but will He really find faith when He returns? There's a verse in scripture that says that even demons believe and tremble, so a superficial belief that Jesus "existed" does not cut it as the meaning of true faith. These verses should serve as sobering elements for believers these days. Every believer should be doing his /her own spiritual inventory to see if we are truly living in faith. Look at what faith is according to Hebrews 11:1, the NIV says "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Let's see again The Lord's question under the light of what faith is according to Hebrews 11:1.
(1) What is the hope that we're so sure of? (2) and how certain are we of what we don't see? (3) who don't we see? The first is Jesus' return, The believer has to be living with the 100% sure hope that Jesus Christ is returning, and show that hope living our lives as if He can return at any moment. Secondly we have to be certain, beyond the shadow of a doubt of what we don't see. For the sake of our Lord's question let's say (of WHO we cannot see) and who is this? The Holy Spirit! our eternal companion who is not only with us but in us, Halleluyah! We as believers have to be living our lives daily with the certainty that the Holy Spirit is right there with us, otherwise we will not, I repeat WILL NOT be able to walk in holiness. It is the knowledge of knowing that He is there with us that feeds the fear of The Lord in us and helps us to maintain the type of faith that The Lord wants to find in us when He returns. So the question can read "...will He really find (people with the pure hope of Jesus' return and the certainty of Him who we cannot see, The Holy Spirit) on the earth?
Let's meditate in the word, our redemption has never been closer.
