THE PROMISE


Before we continue in our exploration of the signs of the season of Christ’s return, I feel that it is necessary to confirm in our hearts that it is from God’s immeasurable and unconditional love that these judgments are coming to the world. Our loving God and Savior desires that everyone be saved.

(2 Pet 3:9) “The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.”

Despite God’s righteous judgments that are about to befall this planet... We are looking forward to eternal life with our Savior on the New Earth.

(Re 21:1-5) “ Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband, and I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ‘Behold, the dwelling of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them, he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away.’ And he who sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." Also he said, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true."
