What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
I'm glad to be counted. Along with the disciples in that view. The apostle Paul. St. Francis, Dale Moody, Charles Spurgeon, and on and on and on, I could go, even though Jesus didn't come back in their lifetime, because nobody looks at those guys and says, what idiots, man, did they ever waste their lives?They lived completely for the Lord, even though the rapture didn't happen in their lifetime.
Oh, they're going to try so hard.
Here's what I can tell you. My belief in the imminent return of Jesus for his church makes me live every day.
Longing for the Lord, longing for the Lord. It stops me getting caught up in and freaked out by world events and turmoil. And it causes me to live for eternity rather than this rapidly fading temporal life.
There is no downside to living in the expectation of Christ's return. There is no downside.
All it causes you to do is live in a way that will profit you for all eternity. Then to wrap up with this, which seven are you? Which servant are you, maybe you started strong and you went four years, but you've settled into a malaise, a comfort level where your faith isn't growing, your passions died down, and time just seems to be passing.
I believe Jesus would say to you, as he said to the Church of Laticia in Revelation Chapter three, go back and do the things you did at first in your relationship with the Lord, go back and do the things you did when you first fell in love with Jesus worship like you did then.
Thank him like you did then, pray like you did, then open the word like you did, then talk to him like you did then. And you'll find your heart beginning to come back to life again.
And if there's something in your life that's weighing you down or slowing you down, I'm not talking about your spouse, so don't go there and holding you back from being really radical for Jesus.
You need to get that thing out of your life. And if you've never lived seriously for Jesus start today. I'll tell you what I do know, the king is coming, the king is coming, he's coming soon. And if you live that way and it takes decades before the Lord returns. If he doesn't come in your lifetime, then all you've done is live for things that actually matter, you've missed out on nothing and gained everything in heaven or it will last for eternity.
You know, I love the Lord so much for caring enough about you and I to sit us down in 2020 and through his word, have a heart to heart with us.
And he's being firm because he cares so much about us, he cares enough to say to you and I, Brother, sister, I'm begging you. Don't waste your life, don't waste your life, one day I'm going to come for you one way or another, and I want that moment to be the greatest moment of your life, the pinnacle of your life, not the moment you're filled with instant regret over a wasted life.
Jesus has been honest and up front and clear with each of us, may the Lord give us ears to hear what his spirit is saying to us today, that we may profit for eternity from a well lived life, a life lived for our master Jesus, who's coming back soon.
