Is Jesus coming for a holy church?
In Matthew 9:13, Mark 2:17, and Luke 5:32 Jesus says he did not come for the righteous but for sinners. Jesus will calm the stormy sea but as a disciple of Christ you will find yourself on the storm tossed sea. The winds will be blowing, the sea billowing but it will seem like Christ is asleep. He will calm the sea but you should ask yourself where is your faith? If you read Acts 14:22, you see that God does not save from tribulation but through tribulation. God says He is going to wipe tears from His childrens eyes in Isaiah 25:8 and Revelation 7:17 & 21:4. If God says He will wipe tears it should be our responsibility to make sure tears are there. We all come into this world as infants, grow up, grow old and die. We have been deceived into believing the tragedies suffered in childhood cannot be overcome. This is not true. If you read the 2nd and 3rd chapters of Revelation, you see that only the overcomers are blessed in each church. The truth in Gods word and the ideas in the bible will outlast this city, this state, this nation, and this planet according to Matthew 24:35, Mark 13:31, and Luke 21:33. Right now we have blind leading blind. The saddest thing to consider is realizing that the one being led has no way of knowing the one doing the leading is blind until calamity occurs. We are being deceived. None of us are any closer to God than anyone else. Your feelings dont matter. If your feelings disagree with Gods word, then your feelings are wrong. To know Gods will for the past, present, and future, read the gospels, the prophets, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes.
