JOHN 14.1 - 3 LET
NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED, YOU BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME. 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. AND IF I GO AND PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN AND RECEIVE YOU TO MYSELF THAT WHERE I AM THERE YOU MAY BE ALSO.

When Jesus told this to the Disciples, He knew that they needed comforting. He took this time to explain that His relationship to them was like a Bridegroom leaving for His Father's House to prepare a place for His Bride.
You and I who believe that Jesus is our Lord and Savior have entered into that relationship. Christ is the Bridegroom of the Church - the Called Out Ones - and we are the Bride, readying ourselves for His Soon Coming, and occupying our time doing His Will.
He promised us that He is coming. Let us look for Him. We are to fill our days with the quiet ever constancy of a loving heart of a Bride for Her Bridegroom. We are to live knowing His Return is Certain, and it is Soon.
My love for Jesus grows day by day. He who said "I AM" is YHWH, or, Yahweh, the One WHO IS. Let us rejoice that we have His dear Spirit to guide and direct us as we Look for His Soon Return.
REMEMBER
WHEN HE COMES TO TAKE US HOME
THERE WILL BE THE SOUND OF THE TRUMPET
AND IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE
WE WILL BE CAUGHT UP TO MEET HIM
AND THOSE WHO HAVE GONE ON BEFORE US
AND WE SHALL BE CHANGED
I THESS CHAPTER 4. 13 - 18
WE WILL BE WITH HIM IN REVELATION CHAPTER FOUR, JOHN IS CAUGHT UP
INTO HEAVEN, AND FROM THAT VIEWPOINT
SEES WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT
7 YEARS OF TRIBULATION
A TIME OF JUDGMENT UPON THE EARTH
AND MILLIONS WILL BE SAVED BY
THE SAME GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
AS SAVED ME
WHOSOEVER SHALL CONFESS
THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD,
GOD DWELLETH IN HIM, AND HE IN GOD.
I John 4.15
We love Him, because He first loved us. I John 4.19
John the Baptist said of Jesus, "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life, and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John chapter 3.36
In a moment He will come
WILL YOU BE READY?
BY FAITH IN JESUS, THE MESSIAH, YOU CAN BELIEVE RIGHT NOW. HE WILL CLEANSE YOUR HEART WHEN YOU TURN TO HIM FOR WASHING BY THE BLOOD HE SHED ON THE CROSS. ONCE FOR ALL HE PAID THE PRICE OF OUR REDEMPTION.
I AM RESOLVED NO LONGER TO LINGER CHARMED BY THE WORLD'S DELIGHT, THINGS THAT ARE HIGHER, THINGS THAT ARE NOBLER, THESE HAVE ALLURED MY SIGHT. I WILL HASTEN TO HIM, HASTEN SO GLAD AND FREE; JESUS, GREATEST, HIGHEST, I WILL COME TO THEE.
I AM RESOLVED TO GO TO THE SAVIOR, LEAVING MY SIN AND STRIFE, HE IS THE TRUE ONE, HE IS THE JUST ONE - HE HATH THE WORDS OF LIFE. I WILL HASTEN TO HIM, HASTEN SO GLAD AND FREE, JESUS, GREATEST, HIGHEST, I WILL COME TO THEE.
I AM RESOLVED TO FOLLOW THE SAVIOR, FAITHFUL AND TRUE EACH DAY, HEED WHAT HE SAYETH, DO WHAT HE WILLETH, HE IS THE LIVING WAY.
I AM RESOLVED TO ENTER THE KINGDOM, LEAVING THE PATHS OF SIN, FRIENDS MAY OPPOSE ME, FOES MAY BESET ME, STILL WILL I ENTER IN.
I AM RESOLVED, AND WHO ? WILL GO WITH ME ? COME, FRIENDS, WITHOUT DELAY....TAUGHT BY THE BIBLE, LED BY THE SPIRIT, WE'LL WALK THE HEAVENLY WAY.
I WILL HASTEN TO HIM, HASTEN SO GLAD AND FREE, JESUS, GREATEST, HIGHEST, I WILL COME TO THEE.
JUST AS GOD TOLD THE HEBREWS TO PUT THE BLOOD ON THE LINTEL AND THE DOOR POSTS WHICH MADE THE CROSS OF BLOOD - SO THAT THE DEATH ANGEL "PASSED OVER" THEIR FIRST BORN, SO TOO, WE MUST LET THE BLOOD OF JESUS WASH AWAY OUR SIN.
GOD COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US IN THAT WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US. ROMANS 5.8
