“Wake-up! The Day is Almost Here!!”
And do this,
understanding the present time: The hour
has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is
nearer now than when we first believed.
The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and
put on the armor of light. Romans
13:11-12
The Lord
Jesus Christ is coming back to Earth in two stages, the first stage is the being
‘caught-up’ of all the TRUE believers, which is also known as the “Rapture.” That is the time when ALL TRUE BELIEVERS will
be SUDDENLY, SWIFTLY, IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE, caught up from the earth, and
carried into Heaven.
The Second
Coming of Christ is when He returns with ALL the TRUE BELIEVERS, those of the
past, who died in Christ, and those who were RAPTURED from the earth. He will
return to claim His RIGHTFUL position as KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS, and
will set up His kingdom on earth for His thousand year reign.
The Apostle
Paul, in his letter to the Roman believers, gives them a WAKE-UP call, because
Paul believed that Christ’s return was imminent even in his day. He told them that their SALVATION was nearer
than when they first believed.
Basically, what Paul was saying was that, the work of their SALVATION
was soon to be completed, and that the DAY of reckoning was almost upon
them. So their lives needed to be
CLEANED-UP, to do away with ANY deeds of darkness, (sins) and to prepare
themselves by putting on the armor of light or by TURNING AWAY from ANY sins
they were participating in, and confessing them to God and asking for His
forgiveness, because the Bridegroom cometh and they needed to be READY.
My question
for you is: Are you READY? The DAY that Paul was referring to will be
the beginning of the culmination of time as we know it. The END of the Age, the FINAL call is being
given throughout the earth for the REDEMPTION of ALL MANKIND. Many will ignore it, or reject His invitation
to become a part of His family, and will ultimately end up in the place of
torment, torture, agony and pain, that place known as HELL.
If you have
not given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you are NOT READY for this CLIMATIC
part of God’s Plan for His creation.
However, He is giving you the opportunity NOW to come to Him and escape
the inevitable destination of HELL. You
come with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, CONFESSING your sins to Him and asking Him
for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU,
and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT
His gift of SALVATION, and BE READY for His coming. Do it NOW, while you still can. He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
