We must keep our hearts fixed on HEAVEN.
Seemingly there are those among us who believe that Jesus is coming to
this earth to set up his Kingdom.
However, our Lord, Savior and King JESUS CHRIST, the only begotten Son
of God says: “[LAY NOT UP FOR YOURSELVES TREASURES UPON EARTH], where moth and
rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But [LAY UP FOR
YOURSELVES TREASURES IN HEAVEN], where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and
where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there
will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:19-21).
The Apostle Paul said: “IF ye then be risen with Christ, [SEEK THOSE
THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, WHERE CHRIST SITTETH ON THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD]. Set
your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead,
and your life is hid with Christ in God. [WHEN CHRIST, WHO IS OUR LIFE, SHALL
APPEAR, THEN SHALL YE ALSO APPEAR WITH HIM IN GLORY]” (Colossians 3:1-4).
“[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).
“Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent
that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless” (2 Peter
3:14).
“Be ye also patient; stablish your heart: for the coming of the Lord
draweth nigh” (James 5:8).
“Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when
ye think not” (Luke 12:40).
“[FOR AS THE LIGHTNING COMETH OUT OF THE EAST], and shineth even unto
the west; [SO SHALL ALSO THE COMING] of the Son of man be” (Matthew 24:17-27).
“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they
also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of
him. Even so, Amen” (Revelation 1:7).
