How often do you hear this from your friends?
"I just can't wait for Christ's return."
I hear it all the time because those who are my brothers and sisters in Christ hate this wicked world full of contempt and lacking in God's kind of love.
We love Christ so much that the world holds no sway over us at all. We are waiting rather impatiently for our home going as we remain steadfast in telling the truth of God.
We are battered by superficial Christians and unsaved family who love their "religion" and "pleasure" but have no interest in obeying the Word of God.
The born again believer yearns for our home going when Christ calls us up to meet Him in the air.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 "…16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will be the first to rise. 17 After that, we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.…"
These words from God are the greatest comfort any born again believer can ponder.
