Prepare for Christ’s Second Coming
"He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life; but he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life." Others' unbelief may keep you back for awhile from blessings which you share with others, but the unbelief of a nation can never deprive you of living, blessed, joyous, growing connection with God. If you knew this was to be your last day on earth, how would you spend its hours? It may be—it will be to many. So employ its moments that you will not be ashamed of the day's record when it is closed forever. Jesus Christ permitted Himself to be humiliated even to the most ignominious death, in order that you might inherit through Him the unspeakable blessing of eternal life. He gave up all, that you, who had forfeited all, might have all. Jesus Christ is coming again. He came once. All who believe in Him believe that. He came literally, came as foretold. The same Book that told of His first advent, tells of His second. The first coming was literal; the second will be. The first coming was a necessary part of God's plan for the redemption of humanity; the second is equally necessary. Those who love Him will be glad that He is coming again. Do you love Him for what He has wrought for you? Then would you not like to see Him and be with Him? This same Jesus is coming again. Prepare to receive Him.
