FACE TO FACE – IT
WILL HAPPEN TO YOU
I was once asked what you are going
to say to Jesus when you stand directly in front of Him, face to face.
Several things went through my
mind, and the only answer I could come up with was, thank you so much.
That is not very much of an answer
to say to the one that suffered and died so I could live.
It is like your hurt and loosing
all your blood and someone walks up and says you can have mine.
He is saying I am willing to die so
you can live. That is very close to how it happened at the cross.
God has a purpose for our lives and
the only way he could manifest it in our lives is through the blood of His Son,
Jesus Christ.
In the Garden of Eden, treason was
manifested through sin, and mankind was separated from the presence of God.
Through the death and resurrection
of Jesus Christ, we were bough, paid for and brought back to the presence of
God. Brought back by accepting what Jesus did.
In John 14:6 Jesus says… I am the way, the truth, and the
life, no man cometh unto the father but by me. In other words you will never
see heaven or spend eternity with Him in heaven unless you receive Jesus as
your Lord and Savior.
If you have your bible, go to
Romans 10:9-10 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the
Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the
dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession
is made unto salvation.
In Hebrews 13:5-6 5 Let your conversation be without
covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I
will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
6
So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear
what man shall do unto me.
No I
really don’t know what I would say to Jesus, I am not sure I could
Say anything. Being in His presence would be
so overwhelming. His awesomeness, His beauty, His love will probably overcome
our thoughts.
John 14:2-3 2 In my
Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I
Would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I
go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself;
that where I am, there ye may be also.
Jesus is
saying I am building you a place in a mansion; I want to spend eternity with
you.
It does
not matter where you live, in the USA
You may
be going through some bad times and you may not understand why, but God
understands. That is why He said; let not your heart be troubled
Sometimes
bad things happen to good people never think God has forgotten you. This life
we lead is a short span of time if you compare it to eternity.
You as a person, saved or
not saved will stand face to face before Jesus Christ, the son of the living
God.
You will either spend
eternity in heaven with Jesus by accepting what he did at the cross, or you
will spend eternity with all unbelievers in the lake of fire with Satan who is
the devil. Please choose life with Christ today.
Peace,
Brother Andy.
