What Lies Ahead!

Last week I wrote about what happens to everyone who rejects Jesus Christ and what their future holds. Not a pretty picture and to be cast into the Lake of Fire and burn and suffer forever and ever, (Revelation 20:10-15, 21:8, 22:11&12, Matthew 25:41&46, Hebrews 9:27). The Bible says great numbers will chose to reject, neglect and disobey God, (Romans 1:18, 2:5). The result is they forfeit God’s very precious and wonderful gift, forgiveness of sins, a new life in Christ. and at the moment of death transported into the presence of Jesus Christ and eternity in Heaven, (John 3:16). But like those English grammar rules there is also one exception. Living Christians might not taste death. In Christ’s return in the air and not setting foot on the earth at that time, “the rapture” in the twinkling of an eye, the body of Christ, the bride, all living believers will join all those Christians that have died and are in the grave, at that moment all will be changed. They will get a resurrected body like Jesus Christ, (1 Thessalonians 4:14-18). The Bible talks a good deal about when Christ Jesus is revealed those that have accepted Him as Lord and Savior will be revealed with Him also, (Romans 8:11&18&23, 1Peter 1:5, 4:13). There is a number of future events to take place, a great tribulation,1,000 year reign, one final battle and all evil defeated to mention a few. See you in Church next Sunday. Brother J
