Why is this website called 1kor1622, or Maranatha?
Maranatha (מרנאתא in Aramaic) is a word used once in the Bible, in 1 Corinthians 16:22, that either can mean "Our Lord, Come!," or "Our Lord Has Come!," depending on the context it is used in, and how it is interpreted. Despite the ambiguity of the word, it is clear the word Maranatha expresses our gratitude, praise, and desire for our Lord to come to us. On the day of the Second Coming, the Lord will come , and God's Children will be taken up to Heaven to live with Him for Eternity. To prepare for this, we must keep our lamps filled with oil by remembering to praise and serve the Lord with all our Heart, so we may eternally live with Him.
