Redemption (God) is always near

Morning: Psalms 87, 90; I Samuel 4:1b-11; Acts 4:32-5:11
Haven’t apocalyptic events always been a part of human history?  These things are always happening: “... distress on the earth ... [people] fall by the edge of the sword and [are] taken away as captives ... Jerusalem trampled ... distress among nations ... fear of what is coming upon the world.”  But Jesus says, “When these things begin to take place, stand up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”  To me, this means that release from these perennial terrors is always near.  These horrors happen in every age, yet God is ever near.
