Names of Christ - Jesus Is The Life

 

IESOUS ZOE

(pronounced ee-ay-soos'  dzo-ay')

JESUS IS THE LIFE

John 14:6

Jesus said to them, "I Am The Way, The Truth, And The Life. No one comes to The Father but by Me."

    Whether we are speaking of this life we now live or the life we who believe will one day live on the other side of death, this word 'zoe' is applicable. It refers to the life we are given when we are born into this world. It also refers to the life eternal the born again believer will have after death. For Christ Jesus is part of the Triune God Who created life from the beginning. 

THE CREATED LIFE

    Genesis 1:26

And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

    Genesis 2:7

And The LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 

    Psalm 139:13

For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb.

    Job 10:11

You clothed me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.

THE BORN AGAIN LIFE

    John 1:4

In Him was Life, and The Life was The Light of men.

    John 5:26

For as The Father has Life in Himself, so also He has granted The Son to have Life in Himself.

    1 John 5:11, 12

And this is that Testimony: God has given us Eternal Life, and this Life is in His Son.  Whoever has The Son has Life; whoever does not have The Son of God does not have Life.

    Psalm 36:9

For with You is The Fountain of Life; in Your Light we see Light. [(cf) John 4:14].

    From the moment of conception there is life. Whether it is the baby being formed in the mother's womb or the born again believer being transformed by The Holy Spirit, there is life. As infants, we take our first breath with mild shock, for we have left the relative darkness and warmth of our mothers and find ourselves in a wide-open, airy, somewhat colder and brighter place. 

    When we first believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, the wonder is even more amazing. We have left the darkness of sin and shame, exchanging that place for the Light and Life of a Loving God and Merciful Savior. Our first breath in Life in Christ is amazing. We have drawn into our souls the unimaginable grace that saves us from eternal damnation and punishment. We find ourselves in a wide open garden, a meadow full of wonderful things which God has prepared for the believers. 

    As babies, God 'knit us' in our mothers' wombs. As believers, God weaves us into Himself through His Word and His Spirit. As believers, we form the body of Christ, the church, Whom He gave Himself for. As born again believers, we recognize Christ as The Head of the church and choose to be transformed into Him on a daily basis by being obedient to The Spirit's lead. 

BORN AGAIN BY WATER & BY BLOOD

    John 3:5

Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and The Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." 

    Titus 3:5

He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of new birth and renewal by The Holy Spirit.

    As a child grows in life, so, too, must a child of God grow in Life. We grow in The Life of Christ after Christ is written on our hearts by The Holy Spirit at our new birth. We seek out God in His Word and His Word is daily applied to our hearts and our minds by His Holy Spirit. This is wisdom. This is Life. 

    And when we draw our last breath in life, when death tries to embrace our souls, we take our first breath in Eternity. We will leave this frail body of death and decay, and rise in new bodies that will never die. Because LIFE ETERNAL is Living in us now. What a Way to go!

Jesus Is The Truth

 

John 14:6

Jesus said to him, "I Am The Way, The Truth, and The Life: no man comes to The Father, but by Me."

    Declarative statements leave no room for doubt. I AM  is a declarative statement of fact. When The Word of God speaks to us in such a way, we can believe that it is True. Every Word of God is Truth. Because Jesus Christ Is Truth. 

    When time is nearing its reign, Jesus will appear on a white horse bringing judgment and war against the people who have chosen not to believe that He Is The Only Begotten Son of God The Father. 

    Revelation 19: 11, 13

And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and He that sat upon him was called FAITHFUL AND TRUE, and in righteousness he does judge and make war.

And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His Name is called THE WORD OF GOD. 

    John 1:14

And THE WORD was made flesh, and dwelled among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of The Only Begotten of The Father,) full of grace and TRUTH.

    What is Truth? When it comes to believing Who God is, there is only ONE TRUTH. 

GOD IS GOD AND THERE IS NO OTHER. 

    Exodus 15:11

Who is like Thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like Thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? 

    Exodus 3:14, 15

And God said to Moses, "I AM THAT I AM:" and He said, "Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you." And God said moreover to Moses, "Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, THE LORD GOD of your fathers, The God of Abraham, The God of Isaac, and The God of Jacob has sent me to you: this is My Name forever, and this is My memorial unto all generations."

    Deuteronomy 7:9

Know therefore that The LORD your God, He is God, The Faithful God, Who keeps covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations.

    Isaiah 45:5, 6

I Am The LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside Me: I girded you, though you have not known Me: that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside Me. I Am The LORD, and there is none else.

GOD IS SAVIOR

    Ephesians 2:8

For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.

    Romans 3:21-24

But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ to all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

    Psalm 27:1

The LORD is My Light and My Salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is The Strength of My Life; of whom shall I be afraid? 

    Do you know God? Is He your Savior, too? God loves you and He sent His Son here to die for you, to pay the penalty for your sins and mine. Jesus Christ is The Promised Messiah and there is no other Savior. He died a wretched death on the cross. He defeated hell and the grave and death when He walked out of the open tomb in a glorified body. 

    Before He ever was nailed to the cross, He was unrecognizable because of the torture and torment He went through. By the time He was nailed on the cross, (nails being 6-inch iron spikes) Jesus was a bloody mess. Strips of shredded skin covered His back. His beard had been manually ripped from His face. A crown of thorns had been forced into the top of His head and just above His brow. He had been pummeled and beaten and made fun of by the men who were assaulting Him. 

    Unrecognizable in death. Unrecognizable in Life. One body that was laid down in Love for me and you got an upgrade after death. And all the suffering He received in His life gained Him a great reward from His heavenly Father. He is The Name Above All Names. He is The Name By Which All Men Are Saved. He is The Lamb of God Who Takes Away The Sins of The World. He is The Lion of The Tribe of Judah. He is The Only  Begotten of The Father. And so, so much more. 

    Jesus Is The Truth. And you better believe it!

    

Names of Christ - AGAPAO - The Beloved One

 

AGAPAO

(pronounced ä-gä-pä'-ō) (ah-gah-PAH-oh)

THE BELOVED ONE

Ephesians 1:5, 6

He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,  to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in The Beloved One.

Matthew 3:17 and 17:5; Mark 1:11; Colossians 1:13

And a voice from heaven said, “This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased!” 

Names of Christ - The Lord of The Harvest

 

KURIOS THERISMOS
(pronounced koo'-ree-os ther-is-mos')
THE LORD OF THE HARVEST
Luke 10:2
And He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask The Lord of The Harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest."

John 4:35, 36
"Do you not say, ‘There are still four months until the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are ripe for harvest.
Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together."

1 Corinthians 3:6-8
I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow.
So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. He who plants and he who waters are one in purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. 

     Do not worry or fret if the gospel we share with those we meet is not received right away. That's seed-planting. Nor boast of your success in leading someone to Christ, for another had already spoken The Word of Life into their ears. 
    We work in conjunction with God's Holy Spirit, Who plows the soil (prepares the hearts) to receive what the ears have heard. Prayers continually given up on another's behalf (interceding) have watered the hearts of those being prayed for. 
     Many people have gone out into the world, sharing the gospel message of salvation through Jesus Christ everywhere they go. Some have planted the seeds of hope. Too many to number have watered the seeds of hope with their prayers, interceding and crying out to God to save the lost souls. But only a few will reap the result of this planting and this watering, if there are not enough reapers. 
     We are accountable to God for the work we have done in the fields He has designated us to work in. And our fields are likely to change without notice, so we need to be prepared. We need to be Holy Spirit filled and Holy Spirit led fieldhands. We are spiritual migrant workers. We go where the need is great. And, lately, the need is great everywhere. 
     Let us prepare not only our hearts to serve our God, but strengthen our hands and our feet, as well. Come, let us be faithful servants for the glory of our God. 

Names of Christ - Banner of Love

 

DEGEL

(pronounced  deh'-gel)

BANNER 

Song of Solomon 2:4

He brought me to the banqueting house, and His Banner over me was Love. 

    In this love story the king has brought his young bride to his banqueting house, the house of wine. Yet, knowing this is the tale of The King of Kings and His church, we see even more clearly that this not merely a warehouse filled with wine barrels and tasting rooms. This is the place of covenant relationship. It is an intimate relationship. And, therefore, a very special and holy relationship. 

    Here, The King shelters His bride with His Banner of Protection, with a Love that sacrificed Itself on the altar of the cross. It is here under this Banner that we are enfolded with His wings, given refuge in the stormy times and warmth in the cold of the darkness in which we live. 

    Here, The King invites His church to follow Him, to walk beside Him. Here The King invites His bride to "Eat this Bread" and "Drink this Wine". [Heavenly Bread--John 6:33, 35, 51; Communion of Remembrance--1 Corinthians 11:23-26]

    Here, The King has brought His bride. "He brought me to". We rejoice that Christ has brought us to Himself. We rejoice that our King has made us His own (people). We rejoice that The King loves us so much that He gave His life for us that we might have Eternal Life through Him. [John 3:16; John 11:25, 26]. 

    Here, in this banqueting house, and here, under His Banner of Love, we commit to being His beloved church, joining in His Covenant of Love beyond measure. 

Names of God - The Lord My Banner

 

JEHOVAH-NISSI

(pronounced yah-way nace)

THE LORD MY BANNER

Exodus 17:15

And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it, THE LORD MY BANNER.

    God is a personal God. Belief must come on an individual basis. Each of us is presented with the opportunity to either (1) Believe in The Name of The Lord Jesus Christ for our Salvation and follow Him or (2) Refuse to believe in The Name of The Lord Jesus Christ and rebel against Him.

Those of us who choose to obey have built an altar and said:

    The Lord is My Banner (under Whose protection I am saved), is My Standard (by which I live), is My Flag (under Whose Name I submit and surrender), is My Ensign (Whose warnings I heed).

Isaiah 11:12

He will raise a Banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; He will collect the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth.

John 3:14

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must The Son of Man be lifted up: that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life.

Isaiah 45:22

Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I Am God, and there is no other.

Mark 8:34, 35

Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and for the gospel will save it."

Isaiah 43:11

I, yes I, Am The LORD, and there is no Savior but Me.

Acts 4:12 "Salvation exists in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”

    We need to build an altar, repent of our sins and transgressions against God for not acknowledging that He is God over all, first and foremost in our lives. We need to acknowledge that GOD IS GOD and THERE IS NO OTHER.

Psalm 80:3

Restore us, O God, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.

Isaiah 55:7

    Let the wicked man forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to The LORD, that He may have compassion, and to our God, for He will freely pardon.

Dear Heavenly Father,

I know now that You are indeed Lord of All creation, Lord of heaven and earth, Lord of all kingdoms and ruler-ships. Forgive me of this my sin against You. Lead me in Your ways, according to Your will and purpose for my life. Continue to teach me Your Word, planting it deep within my heart, and sanctify me with Your Holy Spirit.

In Jesus' Most Holy Name,

Amen.

Names of Christ - Son of Man

ANTHROPÓS HUIS 

(pronounced AN-thro-pos hwee-os')

SON OF MAN 

Mark 9:31

For He taught His disciples, and said to them, "The Son of Man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill Him. And after He is killed, He will rise the third day."

    Every time the phrase 'Son of Man' is used in the four gospels, it is used by Jesus Himself to reinforce that He is both God and man. It is a Messianic phrase reminding us that He is God's Son and man's son at the same time. 

[Matthew 12:8; 26:24, 64] [Mark 8:31; 9:12, 31; 14:21]

 [Luke 9:22; 22:22] [John 5:27; 12:34] 

    Daniel prophesied in Daniel 7:13, 14 of seeing The Son of Man with The Ancient of Days: "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, One like The Son of Man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to The Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him. And there was given Him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve Him: His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

    In His flesh He will die, yet in His divinity He will overcome death and hell, and rise from the grave, throwing off the encumbrances of the flesh. He will ascend on clouds into the eternal presence of His Father, and be seated at His right hand. But first, He must die. 

    Not because of His divinity, but because He will bear the weight of the punishment of sins that have been committed by all the world since sin first began in man. From the time Adam and Eve sinned until the last man and woman have sinned, the massive weight will be placed on His shoulders, and the presence of sin on Himself will cause God to turn away from His only begotten Son. {Matthew 27:45, 46; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Romans 8:3; Philippians 2:7, 8; Isaiah 53:6} 

    Two nights and three days His body will lie in the grave. But on the third day He will rise, just as He had said that He would. But not in the body that He had died in. Does a flower bring it's seed with it when it blooms? No. The seed goes into the ground and breaks apart to shoot the stem up through the ground where it will bloom, spreading its fragrance in the wind. He rose in a new, glorified body.

    So, too, will the righteous rise out of the ground with new bodies, as Christ did. For He could not allow Himself to be touched in His glorified body as it was. (He was sinless in life, in death and in the resurrection. Sin no longer covered Him for He had overcome sin's malicious grasp.) John 20:17, Jesus speaking to Mary, "Jesus said to her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to My brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to My God, and your God." 

    I tell you now that you may hear, The Son of Man is Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. He died for me and for you. By faith in His Name (Ephesians 2:8, 9; Romans 10:9, 10, 13) we are saved from sin's punishment: death and hell, which shall also be destroyed. Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Revelation 19:5-15 describes the second resurrection of the dead and their eternal reward. I tell you now it is  better to be in the first resurrection of the dead.

Lord of The Sabbath-Sabaton Kurios

 

SABATON KURIOS

(pronounced sab'-bat-on koo'-ree-os)

LORD OF THE SABBATH

Luke 6:5

Then Jesus declared, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

Kurios: Supreme Authority, Master, Absolute Ownership, Covenant Lordship, Sovereign

Sabbath: Day of rest in The Lord, Day set apart to cease from work/labors and spend all that Day with God

    Genesis 2:2-3

And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all his work which God created and made. 

Sanctified: Consecrated, dedicated, set apart from

    Here in Luke 6:5 Jesus is responding to the hypercritical comments of the Pharisees, who were religious but unbelieving. They did not practice what they preached. Here, the disciples were hungry enough to break off ears of corn and eat them raw. This was seen by the Pharisees as 'work', and therefore was illegal, unlawful.

    But Jesus tells them that not only is He The Son of Man, but He is The Lord of The Sabbath as well. He is The Rest into which we enter. When we hunger, He feeds us. When we thirst, He gives us drink. Here, He gives them corn. And grace. 

    Such a rebuke the Pharisees heard, but did not receive; for at that time they began meet and talk about how to get rid of this Teacher, this Prophet. For He spoke against their hypocritic ways with authority they refused to accept. 

    Jesus Christ is still Lord of The Sabbath. How are we resting in Him? How are we honoring Him on His Day? Are we spending the Day with Him? Or are we wasting our Days in idle play and relaxation? Have we considered the consequences of not resting in God on His Day? 

    O be careful little eyes what you see, little ears what you hear, little tongues what you speak, little feet where you walk, little hands what you do, little heart what you feel, little mind what you think.

Jehovah 'Elyown 'El

 

JEHOVAH 'ELYOWN 'EL

(pronounced yah-way el-yone ale)

THE LORD MOST HIGH GOD

Genesis 14:22, 23

And Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lift up mine hand unto The LORD, The Most High God, The Possessor of heaven and earth, that I will take nothing, from a thread to a sandal strap, and that I will not take anything that is yours, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich’.

Jehovah: self-Existent, Eternal 

Elyown: Supreme, Uppermost

El: Strength, Mighty One, Almighty 

Psalm 57:2

I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.

Isaiah 26:4

Trust in The LORD forever, because GOD The LORD is The Rock Eternal.

2 Samuel 22:32 

For who is God besides The LORD? And who is The Rock except our God?

1 Corinthians 10:3, 4

They all ate the same spiritual food, and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual Rock that accompanied them, and that Rock was Christ.

Psalm 78:35

And they remembered that God was their Rock, that God Most High was their Redeemer.

 KURIOS DOXA 

LORD OF GLORY

1 Corinthians 2:8

Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified The Lord of Glory.

GLORY: Honor, Splendor, Majesty, Praise, The Unspoken Manifestation of God

Pronounced: koo'-ree-os dox'-ah

According to my Helps/Studies, the word Kurios means "a person exercising absolute ownership rights"; Lord

    This designation is used 722 times in Scripture. Repetition is meant to reinforce and imprint on us the fullness of The Word we are learning. It is not necessary for us to remember it in our minds, as what is being imprinted on our hearts is done spiritually and when we need it, The Holy Spirit will bring it to our lips and then we will speak it out. (Read all of 2 Corinthians 2)

   When we sing The Doxology, we are praising His glory. But what is His glory? Absolute ownership rights. Lord. We recognize that Jesus Christ is LORD of ALL. Even us, especially us. For we are His craftsmanship. The believer in Christ is truly owned by His Lord and Savior and for this we give Him all the praise. From the depths of our hearts we cry out, "Holy, holy, holy is The Lord God Almighty! Worthy is The Lamb That Was Slain!" 

    His glory is His majesty. Majesty to rule, majesty to judge. Wonderful, beautiful glory. That which has not yet been seen by the believer still on this side of heaven but longed for even now. 

     Even the thief on the cross recognized Jesus Christ as Lord. Such a simple word but with so much spiritual discernment in his words to Jesus. Luke 23:42 Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” Lord-Kurios: Master, Owner, Supreme in Authority. This is our Lord. The Lord of Glory. Majestic Ruler of All. 

    Let us prepare our hearts to enter into His courtyards and His presence.

Cleanse My Heart, Lord 

Open The Eyes of My Heart, Lord

The Fountain of Living Water - Names of God

 

Jeremiah 2:13

"For My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, The Fountain of Living Water, and they have dug their own cisterns - broken cisterns that cannot hold water."

Here God is not speaking to the world in general, He is speaking to, and about, His own people: His elect, His chosen. The people He has called to be His people. 

In forsaking God, God's people had turned their backs to and their faces from hearing The Word of God. In so doing they (we) have also stopped obeying The Word of God and are content to do their own thing. We are bringing God's judgment on the house of God in our disobedience and disregard and unthankfulness. 

We must repent of our wickedness and return to a faithful walk with God. We must allow His Holy Spirit to change our hearts and strengthen our desire to have God active in our daily lives. We must seek His face with all of our hearts that His Word may fill us completely and there be nothing left of the selfish desires that have taken us from Him. We must pursue His grace that we might be covered with it, that sin would no longer be in God's houses. 

These broken cisterns with which we have surrendered ourselves to and surround us are the idols and icons of our wickedness. With our eyes turned from God and having looked to the left and to the right, after being instructed not to do so, we have wandered far from righteousness and dallied in unrighteous behavior. 

We must clean out God's house and remove the idols from His altar. We must not tarry in doing so, lest we provoke God even more and He rain judgment upon us. We must seek His face, confess our evil deeds, ask forgiveness and turn away from, stop participating in, such deeds/actions/activities/beliefs. 

When God says in His Word not to do something and we do it, that's a sin against God. When God says to do certain things and we don't, that, too is a sin against God. Both of these need to be repented of (confessed to God that we may be forgiven by Him and turn away from the wickednesses we are doing and turn to Him to obey Him, follow Him, live in Him). 

The Fountain of Living Water can only live in unbroken cisterns (unbroken wells). When we are broken by worldly pleasures, then there is no room for a Savior to enter into and live in. We have filled our hearts with rubble, with trash, with selfishness and self-centeredness. 

We have pasted astrological signs on the walls of our hearts. We are focused on the night sky and not on He Who created the heavenly points of light. We have sought out other gods to worship: gods who cannot see, cannot hear, cannot answer prayer, cannot heal, cannot fight for us; gods who are created by men who refused to give themselves to The Only Almighty God, and in doing so have turned untold numbers of people to their wicked ways of living. 

We are God's people but we are not living like God's people. Now is the time to clean house. Now is the day we turn back to God in repentance that we might be renewed, replenished and refurbished in our hearts, in our minds, in our spirit and in our lives. 

Come back to Jesus. Come and be filled with The Living Water that He is. 

 JUST AS I AM

Names of God & Christ - Pistos Alethinos

 PISTOS ALETHINOS 

(pis-tos' al-ay-thee-nos')

FAITHFUL and TRUE

Revelation 19:11

Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called FAITHFUL and TRUE.

With righteousness He judges and wages war. 

Pistos/Faithful: trustworthy. Strong's writes: believing the faith God imparts. (wow) 

Alethinos/True: truthful. Strong's writes here that this word emphasizes the authentic unity between what is true and where truth originates. (how awesome is that!) 

And this Mighty Warrior is prophesied in Psalms and Isaiah, as well:

Psalms 45:3-5

Strap Your sword at Your side, O Mighty Warrior; appear in Your majesty and splendor. / In Your splendor ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; may Your right hand show Your awesome deeds. / Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes; the nations fall beneath Your feet.

Isaiah 63:1-4

Who is this coming from Edom, from Bozrah with crimson-stained garments? Who is this robed in splendor, marching in the greatness of His strength? “It is I, proclaiming vindication, mighty to save.” / Why are Your clothes red, and Your garments like one who treads the winepress? / “I have trodden the winepress alone, and no one from the nations was with Me. I trampled them in My anger and trod them down in My fury; their blood spattered My garments, and all My clothes were stained."

And, again, in Matthew 16:27 

 For the Son of Man will come in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done. 

Jude 1:14, 15

Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied about them: “Behold, the Lord is coming with myriads of His holy ones to execute judgment on everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of every ungodly act of wickedness and every harsh word spoken against Him by ungodly sinners.” 

Revelation 19:12-13, 15

He has eyes like blazing fire, and many royal crowns on His head. He has a name written on Him that only He Himself knows. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is The Word of God.

Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 

His holiness demands a righteous people, a people who must choose to follow Him, The Word of God, now, on this side of eternity. There are no second chances after death. There is no limbo, no purgatory. There is now; there is heaven (for the righteous born again believer who follows Christ) and hell (for the unrighteous wicked who refuse to believe that Jesus Christ is Lord). 

As Jeremiah wrote thousands of years past, Choose this day whom you will serve..as for me and my house, we will serve The Lord. And in my house? We will serve The Lord. The prodigals will return to The Lord and He will receive them into His kingdom and into His dwellingplace. 

Do you believe? I do.
