" An inheritance incorruptable...reserved in heaven for you." 1Pet.1:3-4;
Eph.1:18
As we await our
Lord's return for the church, I draw attention to who we are and what we do now as His church, that one day we will look upon
with what I pray will be an informed amazement, how God brought us all together here to give Him the Glory and do our ministries
in the life He provided.
Let us make this meeting on YouTube a time to remember forever.
GOD'S UNFAILING PROMISE
John
14 1 "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 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.
3 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."
THE CHURCH IN HEAVEN
1
Cor.15
"53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality."
Beloved,
THE CHURCH GOES INTO THE PRESENCE OF GOD, NOT ISRAEL, NOR ANY OTHER HUMAN BEING IN THEIR OWN BODY! ONLY WE IN OUR GLORIFIED
BODIES CAN BE IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD! FOR GOOD REASON!!! FOR REVELATION CHAP 4 IS CLEAR AS A BELL! WE WILL BE IN HIS PRESENCE
WITH CROWNS (Rewards TO THE CHURCH SAINTS for faithful service) THAT WE THROW AT HIS FEET IN PRAISE AND ADORATION.
But
first, the great teaching of The Apostle Paul, that we can count on because our Lord KEEPS HIS WORD:
1 Corinthians
15
"54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then
shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting?
O grave, where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks
be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."
15 "For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose
name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit
of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones."
Eternal Life.
John 3:16 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."
13 "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of
the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."
THE
CALL OF GOD TO COME UNTO HIM
Revelation 22
"17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth
say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely." This has nothing
to do with the chronology of the Church nor our presence in the Tribulation. It is a invitation by the Church for Christ to
come and by The Spirit for sinners to come to Christ which is our work through the Gospel of the Grace of God.
This
IS the invitation today! If a person unsaved is tired of drinking of the cesspools of the world, WE, in the power of The Spirit,
invite them TO COME TO HIM!...NOW, before it's too late. We do it through The Gospel of Grace in The Spirit of love. Isaiah
55
1 "Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come,
buy wine and milk without money and without price."
John 7
"37 In the last day, that great day of the feast,
Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink." THE NEW JERUSALEM AND THE UNIVERSE:EVERBRIGHT
BY THE PRESENCE OF GOD AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
22 "And I saw no temple
therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither
of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof."
Revelation 22:3-5
3 "And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall
serve him:
4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
5 And there shall be no
night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for
ever and ever."
WE ARE ONE IN CHRIST
FOREVER
ETERNAL LIFE IS IN US NOW
When The Lord calls us home our salvation will be complete (1Cor.15:52-53). And if
we have passed He will wake us up wherever we are on land, sea, air or in a jar on the mantle (Hos.13:14;
Isa.25:8; Ezek.37:12-13; 1Cor.6:14; Ps 16:9; Jn.5:28). Never to die again (Lk.20:36;
2Cor.4:14; 2Tim.1:10). Praise God for the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The gospel of our Lord concludes in the provision, to us, of an eternal state of being in joy untold, true peace,
and a loving relationship with our Father in the family we call the church and bride of Christ. Transformed, by the power
of God The Spirit, from carnel to spiritual, delivered from death itself in an imperishable body, we will enter eternity and
our heavenly home that cannot be imagined in it's magnificence and splendor. And we will share in His glory and be His redeemed
ones, like Him, in glory as well. Let us remind ourselves again and again of the wonderful promises Christ will fulfill for
us and be assured beyond a scintilla of doubt our Savior keeps His word.
Our Savior keeps His word.
