NOTES: Have an RC Cola and Chicken Parmesan Sub and hangout with an old friend and a fellow servant of the Lord, let’s get busy.

Watching Israel. Tom  sees a lot of comments where people say they are done watching for the rapture, they are discouraged they say. Tom says nothing has changed, we are waiting for the Titus 2:13 moment. “The blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.” Tom says he is encouraged by the rapture. It keeps him going each day. Going to be with Jesus shouldn’t discourage anyone. No one should rob that joy.

Romans  1: 21-22  “Because although they knew God they did not glorify Him as God nor were thankful but become futile in their thoughts and their foolish hearts were darkened professing to be wise they became fools.” 

Reads Psalm 91 “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in Him will I trust. Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers and under His wings you shall take refuge. His truth shall be your shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night nor of the arrow that flies by day. Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness nor of the destruction that lays waste at noon day. A thousand may fall at your side and 10,000 at your right hand but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look and see the reward of the wicked because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High your dwelling place. No evil shall befall you nor shall any plague come near your dwelling. For He shall give His angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up lest you dash your foot against the stone. You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you shall trample under foot because He has set His love upon me therefore I will deliver him. I Will set him on high because he has known My name, he shall call upon Me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him with long life, I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.”

If you want to meet up with an old college friend your agent would work with their agent to get together, and before you get together would remind you their oldest son just started college at the local university. But what if it makes a mistake Tom says  and when you show up and say heard your son just  entered the local college and they say, I have 3 girls! Ha! I’ll just have water says Tom!

Comments:

Says feels being pulled more and more out of this world spiritually. Jesus is coming soon to rapture us.

Says knowing about the rapture brings him peace during these tough times. Fellow Christians he knows that don’t believe in a pretrib rapture are all very worried. Tom says they worry alot and prep alot. Those preparations would only last a small amount of time, and in the tribulation food would be taken. Pretribulation rapture is not appointed to wrath. The  time of Jacob’s trouble.

Says feels don’t belong in this world anymore, becoming detached. Not of this world, Tom says we feel that, just waiting for Jesus. We know we are in the season.

Says in time of economic insecurity thinks of the verse:  2 Corinthians 8:9 “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ that though He was rich yet for your sake He became poor that through His poverty may become rich.” Our future is unbelievably rich.

1 Corinthians 2:9 “No eye has seen or ear has heard or the mind of man conceive the things that God has prepared for those who love Him.”

The Gospel:

Time is short, don’t sit on the fence. Choose a side. Tom describes Jesus incredible love, paid by His blood for all our sins. God who came to the earth for us, died buried and rose again on the third day.

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 “For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received. That Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, was buried, rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.

The Gospel is believe, admit you are a sinner and receive  His forgiveness. Become saved, forever.

Hebrews 9:22 “According to the law almost all things are purified with blood and without the shedding of blood there is no remission.”

Tom says at the moment of conception we become an eternal being. We will spend eternity somewhere. Either trust Jesus to save or, if reject, will be still in your sins, judged and go to hell.

Be saved, rescued and spend eternity with Jesus.
