Jesus Is Coming
Jesus Is Coming
“Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14: 1,2,&3).
There have been many of the signs of our Lord’s coming already fulfilled and according to God’s Word the time for His coming is near at hand. “Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh” (Matt. 24:42,44).
There are many people saying in their hearts, we have heard this for a long time, and we don’t believe He is coming; but yet they say we believe in the Bible. If you believe the Bible or in God, you must believe in His coming. You can’t believe part of God’s Word unless you believe it all. We are living in the last days now, as when Noah warned the people of the flood that was to destroy the world by water. The people laughed, mocked, and scoffed at Noah and didn’t believe Noah’s warning either. But what God told Noah to say to the people came true just the same.
Then when the flood came the people believed what Noah said was true, but it was too late. They had already had their opportunity to prepare for the flood if they had only believed. So it is today, only those that will believe in His coming and will repent, be born again, cleansed through the blood of Jesus, and prepared for His coming will escape the wrath of God, hell and everlasting punishment. Whether you will believe and be ready or not, “Jesus is Coming.”
If you were getting ready for a trip you would put forth an effort and prepare yourself for the trip and be ready when the plane came or you would be left. If the plane was not on time, delayed for some reason, and you gave up and stopped looking, then when the plane did come you would be left. So it will be with many people for the Son of Man will come in an hour you think not. But just as sure as we know death will come to us all sometime, though we know not how soon or when, so will Jesus come as the lightning out of the sky. There will be no time to prepare then. Now is the time for salvation. Prepare to meet thy God.
