Titus 2:13
King James Version
13 Looking for that blessed hope,
and the glorious appearing of the great God
and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
"Live your life as if there was no tomorrow."
How many have heard that?
How many believe in that?
How many live by that?
Is it true?
Hardly.
An attitude like that makes us live carelessly.
With no thought of tomorrow.
But only of self.
So far, this is how man lives:
Matthew 24:37-39
King James Version
37 But as the days of Noah were,
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood
they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage,
until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came,
and took them all away;
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
In contrast to how SPIRIT and Scripture would want us to live:
Matthew 24:42
King James Version
42 Watch therefore:
for ye know not what hour
your Lord doth come.
Mark 1:15
King James Version
15 And saying,
The time is fulfilled,
and the kingdom of God is at hand:
repent ye,
and believe the gospel.
Mark 13:32-33
King James Version
32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man,
no, not the angels which are in heaven,
neither the Son, but the Father.
33 Take ye heed,
watch and pray:
for ye know not
when the time is.
Acts 3:19
King James Version
19 Repent ye therefore,
and be converted,
that your sins may be blotted out,
when the times of refreshing
shall come from the presence of the Lord.
Colossians 3:1-2
King James Version
3 If ye then be risen with Christ,
seek those things which are above,
where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above,
not on things on the earth.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
King James Version
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:
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.
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4
King James Version
5 But of the times and the seasons, brethren,
ye have no need that I write unto you.
2 For yourselves know perfectly
that the day of the Lord so cometh
as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say,
Peace and safety;
then sudden destruction cometh upon them,
as travail upon a woman with child;
and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness,
that that day should overtake you as a thief.
2 Peter 3:10-14
King James Version
10 But the day of the Lord will come
as a thief in the night;
in the which the heavens shall pass away
with a great noise,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat,
the earth also and the works that are therein
shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved,
what manner of persons ought ye to be
in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting
unto the coming of the day of God,
wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we,
according to his promise,
look for new heavens and a new earth,
wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved,
seeing that ye look for such things,
be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace,
without spot, and blameless.
The correction?
We must live our lives as if we would meet JESUS in the air.
Anytime.
For He will.
And He shall.
After which, the Tribulation.
It will be a foolish man who would refuse the Rapture.
It's time to get right with GOD now.
He's just a thought, and prayer, away.
