Jesus said, “We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”” John 9:4-5(ESV) “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8(ESV) “Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen. “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”” Revelation 1:7-8(ESV)
“The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to rise from the bottomless pit and go to destruction. And the dwellers on earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel to see the beast, because it was and is not and is to come.” Revelation 17:8(ESV)
These verses above clearly states Jesus was, and is still reigning and is to come back second time to reign but the devil is not allowed till the number of saints added into the Kingdom of God whose names are written in the book of life and those whose names are not written in the book of life will be left behind.
“He (Jesus) put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also.” Matthew 13:24-30(ESV)
Here in the above parable shows the devil, the enemy planted evil in the world and went away. Now evil is operating in the people’s mind and they are polluting the world with weeds. But God is planning a day to harvest when the weeds and the wheat are separated. See the word good seed in singular; that is Jesus. If you are in Jesus you are saved and collected in the barn that is heaven! Hallelujah!
“Working together with him, then, we appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain. For he says, “In a favourable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the favourable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” 2 Corinthians 6:1-2(ESV)
The Word of God clearly warns that we should not take the Grace of God shown to us in vain and be careless about it. Now is the time to receive Jesus and get salvation. If you are careless and act like you are also one of the worldly people who reject Jesus and the salvation; you will find no more Grace period available. Let us come to the loving Saviour and God and escape from the corruption that is in the world.
“By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” 1 John 4:13-16(ESV)
God was the one who tried to communicate with men and brought salvation by sending His Only begotten Son Jesus. God is still working among us as Holy Spirit to lead as many as, who responds to His bidding and co-operating with Him, out of destruction. So our job is to co-operate with the nudging of the Holy Spirit in our heart and come quickly without delay. Because the night time is lurking at us already. Come home!
