A Call To Those Who Claim Jesus Christ as LORD
Why did God-~THE GOD~- save you from eternal damnation?Philippians 3:12
While you spend some time in deep contemplation of that question, consider these thoughts from Nancy Missler, wife of Chuck Missler and co-minister of Koinonia House (www.khouse.org)
Inheritance
“...the way we live our lives here and now will have dramatic consequences in the coming Millennial Kingdom. In other words, what we do after we have been born again affects our role, our position and our place in the future reign of Christ. This coming kingdom is not heaven, but a literal kingdom that will exist back on earth for a thousand years where Jesus Christ will rule and reign. (Be careful not to confuse what happens in the Millennium with what occurs in heaven at the end of the thousand years, because they are two different realms.) All believers will be “with” Christ in the coming Millennium, but only the “overcomers”—only the ones who constantly recognize their choices and choose to turn around and follow Christ (1 John 1:9)—will inherit “levels of responsibility” in that kingdom. So not only our rewards, but also our place of responsibility in the future kingdom will be won or lost according to our faithfulness in this life. Our life here is simply the training ground for the next life there.” NAN'S CORNER(Nancy Missler) - FEBRUARY ARTICLE
If you aren’t sure about the NEAR future of this world nor what purpose you have in it, fall on your knees, repenting for your pious, hardened heart. Pray earnestly that God would remove the enemy from your presence so that you may have eyes to see and ears to hear. Then, study the words of the prophets in these Books: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Mica, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi and, of course, Revelation. Line that info up against the morning newspaper and the evening “news” (both of which are NOT true “news” sources at all but they still sketch for you a rough outline of what’s happening.) We are living out what the saints before us talked about, questioned, waited for, watched for, and prayed in regard to!!! THESE ARE EXCITING TIMES for the believer, but they are also times that are ushering in the Great Tribulation, the times of horror never so great in the history of man.
WE... you and I... are the salt and the light that GOD ALMIGHTY has chosen to set here at THIS PARTICULAR TIME in history!!! People need hope. They need redemption that only comes from our LORD; we are the vessels which God desires to use to pour Himself out to this people through. Will you give yourself completely to Him to use as He wishes for His glory?
At the end of Daniel’s 70 weeks, will Jesus Christ Messiah find you
an OVERCOMER?
