next time.....

Jesus is coming as King.

2000 years ago,
as the passage from yesterday stated....
He came to
suffer
&
die.

"but made Himself of no reputation,
taking the form of a servant,
and coming in the likeness of men,
and being found in appearance as a man,
He humbled Himself
and became obedient
even to the point of death,
even the death of the cross."

Why?
God chose
His Son Jesus Christ
to bear the penalty for our sin nature
(that we were born with)
in His body
so that we
could be brought back
to a right relationship with our Creator.

Jesus died on the cross,
was buried,
and rose again on the third day
victorious over
sin,
Satan,
and death.

Forty days later,
 Jesus
ascended back to His Father in heaven. 

As He went up, 
these words were said by two men in white apparel......
"Men of Galilee,
why do you stand gazing up into heaven? 
This same Jesus,
who was taken up from you into heaven,
will so come in like manner
as you saw Him go into heaven."
Acts 1: 10~11

The first time Jesus came as a servant.
When He returns again,
He will come as King.

"Now to the King
eternal,
invisible,
 to God who alone is wise,
be honor and glory
forever and ever. 
Amen."
I Timothy 1:17

*All biblical truth is spiritually attained. 
If you are interested in knowing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior,
pray
and ask God to give you the gift of the Holy Spirit
who is the One
who gives wisdom and understanding of the truth of Scripture. 
 Also,
prayerfully read the gospel of John
 whose writings
give a very clear picture of who Jesus is and what He did.
I pray for all who read my blog.
