GOD sent HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON to this earth just over “two days” ago that through him the whole world may be SAVED (John 3:16-18).
Many people might be asking: “Was Jesus here two days ago?
From God’s perspective it was just over two days ago: “But,
beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that [ONE DAY IS WITH THE LORD AS A
THOUSAND YEARS, AND A THOUSAND YEARS AS ONE DAY]” (2 Peter 3:8).
“For a [THOUSAND YEARS IN THY SIGHT ARE BUT AS YESTERDAY]
when it is past, and as a watch in the night” (Psalm 90:4).
Every human would be wise to BE READY for the LAST DAY to
stand before JESUS on the Mount of Olives to ESCAPE the things that will come
to pass on that Day (Luke 21:35-36) (Zechariah 14:8–9, 4) (Revelation 11:18).
“For the [GREAT DAY OF HIS WRATH IS COME]; and who shall be
able to [STAND]?” (Revelation 6:17).
Now, to this day, many people are boldly expressing that the
world is not going to end anytime soon, going so far as to mock those who are
sounding the warning that TIME IS COMING TO AN END (Matthew 24:36) (Revelation
11:18).
This same since of rebellion was also taking place when our
Lord Jesus left his disciples to begin preaching the gospel from Jerusalem
(Luke 24:45-48).
Peter, a disciple of Jesus, warned said: “Knowing this first,
that there shall come in the [LAST DAYS] scoffers, walking after their own
lusts, And saying, ‘[WHERE IS THE PROMISE OF HIS COMING]? for since the fathers
fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the
creation” (2 Peter 3:3-4).
“[WHEREBY THE WORLD THAT THEN WAS], being overflowed with
water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, [BY THE SAME
WORD ARE KEPT IN STORE, RESERVED UNTO FIRE AGAINST THE DAY OF JUDGMENT AND
PERDITION OF UNGODLY MEN]” (2 Peter 3:6-7).
Every human being would be wise to be ready for the LAST DAY
because human beings only have this lifetime to REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL (Matthew
25:31-34, 41, 46) (Revelation 11:18, 20:11-15).
“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now
commandeth all men every where to [REPENT]: Because he hath [APPOINTED A DAY],
in the which he will judge the world in [RIGHTEOUSNESS] by that man whom he
hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath
raised him from the dead” (Acts 17:30-31).
JESUS says: “[THE TIME IS FULFILLED], and the kingdom of God
is at hand: [REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL]” (Mark 1:15). “Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise
perish” (Luke 13:3).
“[FOR AS A SNARE SHALL IT COME ON ALL THEM THAT DWELL ON THE
FACE OF THE WHOLE EARTH].
[WATCH YE THEREFORE, AND PRAY ALWAYS], that ye may be
accounted [WORTHY TO ESCAPE ALL THESE THINGS] that shall come to pass, [AND TO
STAND BEFORE] the Son of man” (Luke 21:35-36).
“And it shall come to pass, that
whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount
Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the
remnant whom the LORD shall call” (Joel 2:31-32).
“Now we beseech you, brethren, by the
coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by [OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM],
whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our
Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thessalonians 2:1).
“THEN COMETH THE END, when he shall
have [DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM TO GOD, EVEN THE FATHER]; when he shall have put
down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ
be with you all. Amen” (Philippians 4:23).
