JESUS CAME THE FIRST TIME, HE IS COMING AGAIN

JESUS CAME THE FIRST TIME

HE IS COMING AGAIN

----

On Christmas Day so long ago

Jesus was born.

His Name JESUS means Y'SHUA

or  Salvation, Savior

The One Who Saves

The Deliverer.

Joshua and Jesus mean

the same in the Hebrew language.

Matthew 1.21  You shall call His

name JESUS, for He shall save

His people from their sins.

This is what the Angel told Joseph about

the Baby that was coming.

Think of it.

God stepped down from Eternity,

He who is Everlasting,

He who is not bound by time nor space,

to enter our world,

as a little Baby

totally human,

totally subject to our frail existence,

"boxed in"

by His human body.

From the moment He entered

Mary's womb,

Sent by the Father,

Produced of  the Spirit,

He was the HOLY ONE sent

from on High

He was the PROMISED ONE

the prophets declared would come.

HE IS COMING AGAIN.

This same Jesus is going to come

Hebrews 9.27,28

"And as it is appointed unto men

once to die,

and after this the judgment,

so Christ was once offered to bear

the sins of many,

and unto them that look for Him,

shall He appear the second time

without sin

unto salvation."

We should look for Him to come

expectantly.

We ought to be waiting, just as today

we wait for "Christmas to come"

we ought to be waiting for

HIS RETURN

He will come without warning.

He will come when we least expect it.

The Apostle Paul declared,

"I am now ready to be offered and the

time of my departure is at hand.  I have fought a

good fight, I have finished my course.  I have

kept the faith.  Henceforth

there is laid up for me a crown

of righteousness, which the righteous

Judge, shall give me at that day, and

not to me only, but to all them that love

His appearing.  2 Timothy 4.6 - 8
