urgent or no?

 

Yet as I have preached before, this same Jesus that was lifted into the skies, this same Jesus will come again just as He left.

The angels said that when He went up into the clouds, and as you might doubt the word of angel, let me explain something.

The Angels are messengers, they are servants of God and no servant, no messenger speaks their own words but the words of The Master.

The angels declared to the disciples on the hill this:

Act 1:9  And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 

Act 1:10  And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 

Act 1:11  Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. 

This same Jesus shall so come in like manner. Period. No further words added or taken away. We have this promise that this SAME Jesus will come again.

So why then do we not have urgency acting on the behalf of this same Jesus and getting all ready to meet Him?

Is He a Good God?

 God is good for this:

Rom 5:8  But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 

While we were sinners, when we didn’t know God, nor did we care about Him, He loved us. In fact when we were so unlovable, so totally ignorant of Him, He loved us and made a plan to come ad die for us. God came to die for an earth that rejected Him. God came to redeem a human rave that has no redeeming quality. We were so bad, that not one of the billions of us that ever walked this earth could die to redeem mankind.

Moses, Noah, Paul, Peter David or even the saintly Daniel, none of them were good enough to rescue mankind from their sins.

God loved us when we did not care, and today when society is running Him off and out He still loves us and calls all to repentance.

God is Good for this:

Joh 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 

God is good in that He gave His only begotten Son on this earth to die for us. You say I just made that point, right?

Well a Good and loving God also let’s those that reject them know full well what is waiting for them if they reject Him.

He promises that whosoever believes on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Now that’s a downright huge promise, if you believe on Christ you will have everlasting life!

However, He does not stop there. He says that those that do not believe shall perish.

He is a good God for He tells you what is coming, He allows you to make a choice and then at the very end, despite how much He loves you He will allow you to go to the place you desired, the place you chose.

That is a Good God, He does not force you to obey, He gives you all the information and allows you to decide.

The question is not, is God Good? For we know He is.

The question is Do you choose Him or death?

That is all that matters today.

Call on the name of the Lord Jesus, Confess Him with your mouth today and you will be saved.
