For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth.
Job 19:25, ESV
God is not dead.
Jesus was killed, yet He lives.
He is coming back to this world one day in judgment.
Follow Christ, and stand with Him!
And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Galatians 6:9, ESV
We may get rewarded for our good works in this life, but our ultimate reward comes when Christ returns!
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:6, ESV
We have the promise and reminder: We are made new, but our transformation is not complete until Jesus returns.
Until then, live out your salvation with fear and trembling.
The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:9, NASB
Jesus will return, on His timetable. It is okay to long for His return, but remember that He is waiting for the full number of those who believe.
This is what the Lord says: “I will return to Zion and dwell in Jerusalem. Then Jerusalem will be called the Faithful City, and the mountain of the Lord Almighty will be called the Holy Mountain.”
Zechariah 8:3, NIV
The Lord has come, through the incarnation of Christ, and He shall return once more to finally completely usher in His eternal Kingdom.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
John 3:17, ESV
In His first advent, Jesus came to seek and she the lost.
It is His second advent where those who do not believe will be under condemnation.
This is the time to believe.
“She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
Matthew 1:21, ESV
Trust the promises of God. Like Mary did, we can trust that the One who saves is returning!
so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
Hebrews 9:28, ESV
The next time Christ comes, we shall remain with Him forever.
It will not be so nice for everyone else.
but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31 ESV
It feels like Jesus is taking His sweet time returning and our world is growing worse and harder to live in.
But if we trust that His timing is good, and we remember that He has promised He is returning, we will find Him strengthening us through the Holy Spirit.
As he was blessing them, he departed from them and was taken up into heaven.
Luke 24:51, GNT
Imagine seeing your friend, who you now know is also your God risen from the dead, leaving you again.
But this time you have a mission He has blessed.
And you know He is coming back to be with us.
Forever.
