1Thessalonians 4:16-17 - For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
I have attempted to point people to the saving grace of Jesus Christ. It’s all about Him anyway. As John 1 states: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. (Verses 1-2)
The Word is Jesus. The Word is also the Bible. Jesus is the Son of God as well as God. He has created all things, was, is and is to come. The Alpha and Omega...He created this world and He will return to end this world and build an even better place, much like the Garden of Eden was supposed to be. And Jesus is the exact image of the Father. These are all concepts we believe by faith. God’s ways are not like ours, His thoughts not like ours.
Jesus will return. According to the Word, the world will begin to take on some very disturbing things. The world will either be accepting of the changes or wondering what is taking place. The believer knows what it's all about and is looking up to His glorious return and the demise of wickedness and hatred.
Instead of my rambling on, though, I want to share a very good article. We have come to a time where pointing to Jesus needs to be ramped up. Times are short and critical. The message is strong: you must know Jesus as Savior and Lord. Not just think you do or believe religion will save. Only Jesus can. We cannot be saved because we know someone who is or said a prayer once a long time ago...or think we are good people. It’s a decision made between you and the Lord. One on One. We must humble ourselves before Him while we can. It is said He will come like a thief in the night. We must be prepared.
If what this article states is new to you, I would search the scriptures for more answers. This should not be taken lightly.
See what someone besides me has to say.
1Thessalonians 5:14-15 - Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, be patient with all. See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all.
