This is a transcript of the video published on 5/14/26 called, Will No One Know? The Book has arrived! 
--------------------
Hi everybody, Bob of The Open Scroll here. I want to talk to you a little bit about this book that I just got from the printer. I'm going to be distributing it in kind of a special way.

It's a non-commercial distribution and here's what it's about. If this is news to you, you probably haven't been watching our most recent videos but when you get to The Open Scroll and you look on the right side, The Hope, there's this collection of studies in the service of food for his household at the proper time. It's when cometh that thief in the night.

And here's this study very early on called Will No One Know? And when you click on that now, you get this study and there's a table of contents and lo and behold, there's this. So what I'm going to do is introduce you to this and read what's on the back cover. I want to show you there's a page that I added, Will No One Know? Book and Order Info.

So, on the back cover, it says, Will No One Know? Most Christians believe no one can know the day or hour of Jesus' return, but is that what the Bible actually says? Challenging the traditional interpretation of Matthew 24-36, this provocative study shows that the verse does not declare universal unknowability. Neither does Acts 1, 6-7, which is the other scripture used to make the case. Take a step back, rub your eyes, put on your critical thinking caps, and take a fresh look at the scriptures.

If you're ready to think outside the box of theological dogma, you'll discover the simple truth that some will know. Lord willing, you'll also discover just how much having this precious knowledge will matter. Along the way, with the Lord's help, you'll grasp the reason why the trusted authorities in the church get it so wrong.

Yeah, this is going to be controversial. Will no one know the day when Jesus comes? Some will. You should want to be among them.

That's kind of understated, really. So in wrapping up the conclusion, I have this. You'll find the contents here online, but there's a reason for a book.

There's a reason why you have Bibles with paper, probably leather, and other books and other publications to read, because although online is sometimes convenient, it's not always the best way to communicate. So, when we go to this study, you'll find online there are actual links to follow, and that's a benefit that you don't get in the book, although in the book I do put in some other... I print out the links so people can find the things I make reference to in the book. I don't have these kind of sidebar entries, but I do have some footnotes at the bottom of pages.

In the conclusion, I have an opening to it, and I want to say if I am correct in my estimation of the gravity of the situation, and I believe I do estimate it correctly, the no one will know dogma in the closely related doctrine of imminence are among the most harmful in the apostate church today. The timing is important. The knowledge of the timing of our Lord's coming is of such importance that even its very knowability must be concealed.

Yeah, it's concealed and revealed. So, Proverbs 2, 1 through 6: 

"My son, if you will receive my words and treasure my commandments within you, make your ear attentive to wisdom, incline your heart to understanding. For if you cry for discernment, lift your voice for understanding. If you seek her as silver and search for her as for hidden treasures. There's a condition. Then you will discern the fear of the Lord and discover the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives wisdom, from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. "

As this study concludes, I want to leave you with this. The focus of attention has been on the knowability of the time of Yeshua's coming and how critically important it is to know.

But here's how I'd like to frame that. Along the way, the character of those who will know and be ready has been contrasted with those who won't know and will be left behind. If you have been an attentive student of this effort, you'll want to learn when your Lord is coming.

But as moved by the Spirit of the Living God, you should have a strong sense of how this only happens in the context of experiencing how the bridegroom passionately woos and prepares his beloved bride. This is really about your personal relationship with the bridegroom. It's a love thing and an obedience thing.

To be sure, this blossoming relationship will manifest gloriously and will typically express itself in how you minister to the body of Christ. 

I have a special section on distribution and promotion and you'll find that on this book order page right here. Distribution and Promotion, because this book has been published for distribution entirely through non-commercial means, meaning you're not going to order it on Amazon because I'm not supplying it to Amazon.

You'll notice there's no barcode on there because I have no intent to distribute it through bookstores, with the exception of used bookstores who will receive donations and thrift stores, prison libraries, public libraries, school libraries, and so on, shelters, homeless camps prime for distribution. A lot of people are ready for the message. A lot of people have been primed and they see hope has been crushed in the world.

There's definitely a deficit and I would say the church has not been spared. A lot of the hope held forth by churchgoers is compromised because it's not based on the truth. Why do I say that? Get your own copy, get several, give them out to friends, your church groups, give them out all over the place. I make some suggestions here on the page. 

This is a timely situation and I believe we have a limited opportunity before us. I've been sharing about how the times are changing. I've been sharing a lot on X.com, a lot of the news that's not being reported elsewhere. Do you see the writing on the wall? Yeah. Cultural disruption has begun and it's increasing around the world.

The signs of the arrival of the mark of the beast and therefore the beasts themselves are increasingly common and dramatic. I'm convinced that we need to act and that's why I went through the effort of putting this book together and why I'm making the effort to get help distributing it. 

If it's just up to me, I don't have the funds. It's not going to move because of just my efforts. I am doing what I can but I need those that the Lord is inspiring to volunteer, to pitch in, to make a contribution. I reflect on Esther 4:14 and if you're not familiar with that, look it up. Look it up in your Bible. 

These are urgent times. Trouble is coming and it's already here for many.

God bless you, everybody. Bye-bye.
