Times of Raging Insanity and Yet Believers Rejoice

We are living in the end times of raging insanity. 2 Timothy 3. Whining won't stop it or produce anything, but the Gospel may save someone's eternity from that of hell to that of heaven.

Yes, I get it, things are frustratingly irrational and violent in our day. I have been tempted to allow it to make me angry. I resist the temptation to become angry because my anger wouldn't do anything.

However, my peace, joy, and resolve to speak of Christ may do something in the life of someone somewhere.

We, the born again believing church is about to leave this world for home, that is heaven with Christ. He will soon sound the trumpet in the clouds calling us up. Then up we go in an instant changed entirely into a new body. What could be more exciting than that?!!!!

There is great hope for the born again believer, however that hope is not in this world, this president or anything else here. Our hope is in Jesus Christ Who died for us and Who will come for us at any moment.

1 Corinthians 15:51-53 "…51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52 in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53 For the perishable must be clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.…"

Do not look around anymore, look up!!!

1 Thessalonians 4:15
"By the word of the Lord, we declare to you that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who have fallen asleep."

1 Thessalonians 4:17
"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."

Luke 21:27-28 "…27 At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 When these things begin to happen, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”"

Going home soon brothers and sisters, it is something to be excited about. Let the Lord not find us agonizing laterally but rejoicing vertically as we wait with anticipation for our Lord in the clouds.
