Welcome to “God’s Word to You”!
God’s Word to You today is found in
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
16For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
John 6:39-40
39And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. 40For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”
I don’t worry about the End Times. I know where I am going when I leave this place. I also know Jesus and the Father are one. I worship the one true God, the one true Jesus, not a just a man or prophet but God in the flesh who WILL one day return for those who are His and woe to those who are not.
So many religions and those of the world, especially Hollywood, seem to have these places where we will meet others, work to pay for our sins, have our own “personal” place that is what and or where we always wanted to be. But that isn’t Biblical.
These two verses are full of so much information and today I ask you to look at three points. First Jesus is Lord. Jesus will return someday and when He does He will take home His children. That will be a glorious day.
Second is we will live our lives, then sleep or slumber until His return and be among the first to see and meet Him. We don’t wander the earth, or work out our sins, or hang out with buddies or enemies. It seems we will not even be aware of the passage of time.
Third we who are alive at the second coming will see His return as well as meet those who have gone to sleep before us. And we WILL see Jesus and we WILL go home with Him.
Isn’t that an awesome promise, future, and worth everything we go thru here?
me n’ God love ya
