JESUS is M E E K and ONLY his Meek follwers will get to HEAVEN.
Throughout
a lifetime, there is a constant bombardment of sources on how to get rich. Many
people spend their entire lifetime trying to get rich thinking that by having
lots of money money, they can begin enjoying life.
“But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after [RIGHTEOUSNESS, GODLINESS, FAITH, LOVE, PATIENCE, [MEEKNESS” (1 Timothy 6:11).
Let
us live by the example of the MEEKNESS
of our Lord Jesus Christ who rode a donkey into Jerusalem when he said: “Tell
ye the daughter of sion, behold, thy king cometh unto thee, [MEEK], and sitting
upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass” (Matthew 21:5).
Jesus
says: “Blessed are the [MEEK]: for they shall inherit the earth” (Matthew 5:5).
Now,
many people incorrectly conclude that Jesus is referring to this earth.
However, he is referring to New Heavens and a New Earth (Isaiah 64:4, 65:17) (Matthew
25:31–34) (2 Peter 3:13) (Revelation 21:1-2) (2 Corinthians 4:18) (Hebrews
1:1–2).
Let us
be reminded that before he left this earth, Jesus also told his disciples, “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 UNTO MYSELF]; that [WHERE I AM, THERE YE MAY
BE ALSO]” (John 14:2–3).
The
Scriptures also tells us that “The Lord hath prepared his throne in the
heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all” (Psalm 103:19).
Further,
the Scriptures also tell us about the events when Jesus returns on the Last Day
for Judgment Day, as written by the Apsotle Paul who said:
“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” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).
“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” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).
“[THE
RIGHTEOUS] shall flourish like the [PALM TREE]” (Psalm 92:12).
“[TRUTH]
shall spring out of the earth; and [RIGHTEOUSNESS] shall look down from heaven”
(Psalm 85:11). “[THE RIGHTEOUS] shall inherit the land, and dwell therein forever” (Psalm 37:29).
