He Is Coming!

Look, He [Jesus] is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen. (Revelation 1:7, NIV 1984).

My Musings“‘Men of Galilee,’ they said, ‘why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.'” (Acts 1:11, NIV 1984). The same way He ascended, into the clouds, is the way He will descend, out of the clouds. “[It] is near— near and coming quickly. A day of wrath, a day of distress and anguish, a day of trouble and ruin, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness.” (Zephaniah 1:14, 15, NIV 1984).

My Advice – The manner of His coming we know. We just do not know when. But more important than the manner or the timing is our preparedness. “So, [we] also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when [we] do not expect Him.” (Matthew 24:43–44, NIV 1984). If we are ready, we need not fear His wrath, be distressed or feel any anguish. “Trouble and ruin…darkness and gloom” are not for those who prepared for His coming.

I was raised in a Christian family and my earliest childhood memories include regular Sunday school and Church attendance as a family. I was taught that our Judeo-Christian values were not just a part of our Sunday routine they should be part of our character and influence all aspects of our lives. I was also taught that as important as these values were they could not save us. We must also be “born again” by accepting Christ.

    1. My faithful editor is definitely with the program (as we say in the U.S.). LOL. The s should have been e. Funny how sometimes we see what we expected to see. Corrected. Thanks! Hope all is well with you.
