At this time of year, the three words on most of our minds are Christmas is coming. Christmas is a wonderful time if we have the right reason on our mind. That is, everyone thinking of Jesus' birth. But we must not think only of His first coming. We must remember that He is coming back and I believe it is soon!
Between the rapture in I Thessalonians 4:17 (Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.) and the Marriage of the Lamb in Revelation 19:7 (Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.) we will all have to stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ in II Corinthians 5:10 (For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.)
In Revelation 19:7 we need to remember that they were not getting ready, but they had made themselves ready. My prayer is that you will search the scriptures and see that these things are true and do what you need to do.
Hi Brother Cox,
ReplyDeleteThat is very powerful, and I understand what you mean about the coming of the Lord Jesus coming soon. My Pastor has been preaching about it, and he said that he believes we are in the end days. It really does seem like a wonderful moment to finally meet our savior. :)
