Soon implies just that, soon. And it isn’t an unknowable chronology. It is known to the Father. By His standards, it is soon. And, by our standards it is imminent, whether that be tomorrow or 100 years from now.

Wait a second (literally). Didn‘t you say earlier, "Observing the times, it is soon"?

What signs are you observing that it could be another 100 years away?

Could be a 1000 or 10,000 years?

Sounds like you are not the only one confused about the word "soon".

"This book [The Final Act] is a relevant reminder for all believers to be ready for the soon return of Jesus Christ." -- Greg Laurie

"Soon" seems to be a throw-away word in that sentence.
