THE KING IS COMING!
SOUND THE ALARM! ! PROCLAIM IT! DECLARE IT! TELL IT! CRY IT ALOUD! CRY it from
the housetops! Let it RING out over land and sea, "THE KING IS COMING!"
"For the Lord himself, shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise
first; Then, we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with
them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and; so shall we ever be with
the Lord," (I Thes. 4:16, 17).
Very soon, one of these days, the trumpet will sound, so very soon, one can
almost hear the blast of the trumpet. There seems to be sort of an expectancy
in the air, of waiting. Prophetic students and theologians everywhere agree
that He is coming soon. Prophecy is being fulfilled so rapidly before our very
eyes.
Are you listening? THE KING IS COMING!
Are you ready to meet Him? Have you accepted Him as your personal Savior?
Are you waiting to hear Him say, "Come up hither and reign with me"?
What a DAY that will be! In the twinkling of an eye, we shall be changed and
caught up to meet Him in the air, to reign with Him in Heaven; where there are
many mansions, where the streets are pure gold, the gates are of pearl, the
walls of jasper; there will be no need of the sun, nor the moon for Jesus will
be the LIGHT. There shall be no more crying, "God shall wipe away all tears;
no more death, no sorrow, no pain, for the former things have passed away,"
(Rev. 21,22,23). All our loved ones, who have died in the Lord will be there
to welcome us, father, mother, sisters, brothers, wives, husbands and
children. What a REUNION that will be! But the most exciting, thrilling of all
will be when we see CHRIST! Our lovely, beautiful JESUS. How beautiful Heaven
must be!
Again, I repeat, are you ready to meet Him?
Jesus is standing with outstretched arms pleading, "Come unto me, all ye that
labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matt. 11:28).
God has prepared the WAY. He loved us so much, He sent His Son to die on the
CROSS for US. It was there all OUR SINS were paid for. When He cried out, "It
Is Finished," full atonement was made, God was satisfied! Salvation is as
plain, easy and simple as that! John 3:16 and Acts 16:31. "Believe on the Lord
Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved" show the "Be born again" Way.
Depend on and trust in Christ's "Finished Work" and God says He will forgive
you all your sins. This is God's "WAY". Man's WAY is to live by the Golden
Rule, do good, do the best you can and you'll be saved. God says, "All your
good deeds are as filthy rags, there is none that doeth good, no not one, not
of works" (Isaiah 64:6). God says salvation is a FREE Gift. "For the wages of
sin is death but the (FREE) GIFT of God is eternal LIFE through Jesus Christ,"
(Romans 6:23). If you won't accept God's WAY, you can't be Saved. Why won't
you accept it God's WAY instead of man's? The instant you believe and trust in
God's promise, you are "born again." However, there is something mysterious
that takes place when Jesus moves into the heart; a real miracle takes place.
We become a new creature in Christ "Old things are passed away, behold all
things are new," (II Cor. 5:17) Things you once loved, you now hate, things
you hated you now love. We're completely transformed.
It almost overwhelms one sometimes to think that God, the Almighty, king of
kings, the Creator of the whole Universe, who made the stars, moon and the
sun, the ALL powerful God chose us to be His children and His witnesses.
Do you witness for Him?
Have you ever led a soul to Christ? If you have, you'll never be satisfied
until you lead more. There is no JOY on this earth that can compare to it.
Have you ever seen a lost, repentant soul step over from death into LIFE? Have
you ever watched a wretched, sin-sick soul when the LIGHT finally breaks
through? It's times like these that make it all so worthwhile.
Oh, that the world will see Jesus in us!
Oh, that we'll be more on fire for Christ!
Oh, that we'll proclaim this message of salvation far and wide!
Ashamed of Jesus? Oh, no! Not ashamed of Him.
Be bold for Christ!
Dare to be a soul winner!
"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 of the water
of LIFE FREELY," (Rev. 22:17).
