What About The Rapture?
In my continuance to study the Book of Revelation, I dug into chapter six only to find myself backpedaling through the scripture to refine my thoughts on the rapture...
“An Insufficient Offering To the King of the World”
This prayer conveys a transparent, raw view of the Christian life, a lamb in need of a shepherd, a constant battle with an enemy stirring up the past and tossing our failures before us, a cry out to God, a longing to please our Creator… a child running into the arms of the Father.
A Foundation That Won’t Crumble
Her house was built upon the rock. She was not just a hearer of the Word, but she was a ‘doer(s) of the Word’ (James 1:22 KJV).
Why? Why? WHY?
So, my question to answer in this Bible study is 'Why would God allow His children to go through a hardship or suffer?'
WORTHY
But Jesus willingly humbled Himself and was crucified as an innocent lamb… without blemish… without sin… WORTHY.
In The Presence Of God
God created us for His purpose. So, each day we wake up, God has a purpose for us to fulfill.
Eternal Freedom
If we have accepted Christ as our Savior, we have an even greater independence to commemorate, and that is the day we received freedom from sin and began a new life in Christ.
Adjusting the Thermostat
I am a cold-natured person with absolutely no tolerance for frigid temperatures, so if I know I am going to be somewhere I could get cold, I wear layers and pack blankets, gloves, a hat, and anything else I can think of that might eliminate the agony.
