He is Coming Soon

[Wileyzmuse]

Hi All,

I woke up this morning knowing I am supposed to tell others this message. It's nothing new for those of us who know Jesus Christ, but I distinctly was told to tell others this message. Don't worry, I'm not setting dates or anything. It is almost as if His presence is drawing closer every moment and I can now feel the urgency of the situation growing.

This post is meant to encourage, and remind, and exhort you to prayer and fasting and sharing God's Word with everyone you can. We are so mightily blessed.

Praise God for His Faithfulness! Jesus is Risen, and through His blood our sins are forgiven this day and on. If you have not yet decided to accept Jesus Christ into your heart, there will be no better time than now. God is knocking at the door of your heart, all you have to do is open it and accept Him in. Admit that you are a sinner and in need of forgiveness...trust that Jesus' death was for you...to atone for the sins that weigh you down at this very moment. Jesus was resurrected, which demonstrates the power of God. We will also be resurrected at His return (unless we are fortunate enough to be here when Jesus appears in the clouds!) and we will be judged, and either take our place in our Father's heaven, or be separated from Him for eternity. Please accept His free gift of life...abundant and eternal. He loves you.

If you have any questions or concerns, PM me anytime.

YSIC,
Patricia

I tell everyone "He is coming soon".

Some used to look at me funny.

Now, it seems people agree with me more and more. They can see the signs too.

The promise of His imminent return keeps me going. :):

Just think -- 100 years ago we Christians would have been looking for death as our only means of translating to heaven.

But the generation alive right now is the one anticipating the Blessed Hope!

Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
--- 1 Thess. 4:17

AND......

It's not just wishful thinking for our generation! I believe the Lord has put it in the hearts of those who WANT to know.

you guys realize the AWESOME responsibility entrusted in us ~ that as "watchers" looking for the Lord's soon return -- we are the ONLY ONES in the world who REALLY KNOW what's coming down the pike!!


~ while details may not happen exactly as we speculate ~ even so, we've got the general outline..... and *KNOW* to be looking for Jesus!!

While the rest of the world just keeps on spinning out of control.....

Hi guys.......I just wanted to share today I was running from work to a dentist appointment, and I felt such an *urgency*. I felt JOY and yet, such anguish because of the world's condition. It was such a moment!! I kept LOOKING UP!!!

We all need to be looking and praying for one another and un-saved loved ones and walk 'upright' so that the world can Jesus in us...

I just feel you guys, like there is very LITTLE TIME LEFT!!!!

I absolutely LOVE these verses:

1Th 4:16 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:

1Th 4:17 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.

1Th 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words

RJ's Here you are so right, it is an awesome responsibility! I feel as if I waste so much time 'living' while time is wasting and people are perishing around me.

I would love to get a prayer chain going for all believers to have great boldness and speak God's word without hesitation or fear. That we would be singleminded in our pursuit of God's heart, and that we would not rest until every soul knows Jesus.



:D:

Wiley ~ I share w/you that concern. ~ it's been "bugging me" a lot lately, too!


ie/ in the health food store today (where a lot of New Agers abound ~ along w/the type who proudly talk of having a recent "psychic reading"....) :freaked


Well, when I'm in there -- I try to leave my little pamphlets here & there.


And I'm always nice to the clerks ~ trying to "show" them the love of Jesus.

But then ~

I notice, well, hey, they're "nice" to each other, too!!


Just being nice is no indication that one is a Christian.


SO......


everything in me is dying to speak out about Jesus!!

I speak of Him even on my checks & draw an arrow pointing it out{hoping SOMEONE will see it!!}

I used to wear my RR shirt into the store on occasion....


But yet, all these actions .....


well!! you know what I'm saying!!

Adrian Rogers says we do ppl a disservice when we don't tell them about Jesus.


And ~ is it satan working against me or what? ~ when I get to thinking -- ppl are going to think I'm such a CREEP ~ if I go in with "preacher mode" on!! Ya' know what I mean??


Praying ~ definitely praying about this very subject!!

Cuz time is short!!

Yes....I need prayer witnessing, also.

I do o.k., if I can get the conversation going, usually it is real hard for me to get started. Sometimes I just work my way into it from other topics and then get to it, but sometimes I don't get all the way there without getting shut down. I really do want to become a better witness. -D

[John 3:16]

My 9 year old daughter had to do a report on Hitler, and we talked about him alittle before her report and of course, she did research on the internet. Well, she ended her report with saying, "Hitler hated the Jews because they were God's chosen people. Hitler was an anti-Christ."

:freaked

Well, I'm ashamed to say that I asked her, "Are you sure you want to write that? Yes, it's true, but the teacher might not understand." She insisted.:thumb


Sorry- alittle off topic, but she reminded me that I am a coward sometimes.:doh
