Live in His Comfort
Dearly beloved and highly favored by the Heavenly Father, only He could have conceived the glorious plan of salvation and has the power to save us and give us eternal life.
God sent the Savior, Jesus Christ, to deliver us from sin and death. God gave him the power to make the dead alive and He gave him the authority to carry out all judgment.
Jesus Christ said, “Verily, verily, I say to you, He that hears my word, and believes on Him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but has passed from death unto life.”
There is therefore no more condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. He justified us from sin and gave us the sure hope of obtaining the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ; we will be glorified with him. We have the spirit of life in Christ Jesus.
Death is the last enemy that will be destroyed – but it will be destroyed, dearly beloved. God gave us the victory over sin, and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. We ought to live every day in thanksgiving for His loving kindness and tender mercies toward us in Christ.
Whether we are living when he comes, or we have died we will live together with him. The Lord will give the command and we will be transformed to be like him.
Christ Jesus our Lord will raise the dead in Christ from the state of death and corruption, and transform our humiliated, corruptible body so that it may have the same form as his glorious body according to the energizing by which he is able to subdue all things to himself.
Then he will transform those who are yet alive to be like him, and together we will be received up in glory to meet the Lord in the air. Rejoice forevermore!
Until then death will sting, dearly beloved, but since there no awareness of time nor knowledge in death, the next thing we will know after we fall asleep is the Lord’s command to wake up and come up! We will be gathered up to the Lord in the air and see him face to face. We will be with him forever!
We no longer have to live with the fear of death as we did before the Lord Jesus Christ saved us. God called us to inherit eternal life and to be glorified together with Christ, and it shall be as He has said! Nothing can keep Him from His purposes.
All that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. Beloved, the world passes away, along with its lusts, but he that does the will of God abides forever! This is His will that you confess Jesus as Lord and believe that God raised him from the dead and you will be saved.
Live to do the will of Him that called you to life and glory. Live with the hope of Christ’s coming ever before your eyes.
No one knows the day and hour of his coming; no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father only, but dearly beloved, our salvation draws nigh. It is nearer than when we first believed. Live like it will be today! He is coming to be glorified in his saints and we will be glorified in him!
Rejoice! Beloved brethren, be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
Stand in His grace and hold the comfort of His Word in your heart. he is coming!
