PAROUSIA
(Mat
24:4-44, Mk 13:5-37, Lk 21:8-36)
Are
you ready for Parousia/His coming? How sure are you?
It
is very very rear to prepare to die or for death but people prepare aptly for a
birth. When a pregnant woman is expecting, she buys baby’s kits and the whole
family prepares on how to receive a new born baby at home. At last, everyone is
happy once, a child is born, names are given, foods and drinks are organised
and so forte.
For
Christian, we are told years back by angels when Jesus was leaving for heaven
that he would come back, Acts 1:11,’ …men of Galilee, why do stand gazing up
into heaven? …… will so come in like manner you saw Him…’
Jesus
also talked about himself going to heaven to prepare a place for each one of us
and would come to take His chosen one.
1-
Jesus is coming back to take His chosen one, are you among the chosen one? What evidence?
2-
His coming is called Parousia in Greek, he comes the same way he was taken to
heaven, eyes will see him. When you see
him at last, how will you feel?
Happy, discourage, mixed in feelings, sad, confidence, sorry, apologetic,
Hispanic or africanised, how?
3-
Those who died in Christ will be made alive in order after Christ in Parousia,
are you sure if you die today you will be made
alive in His coming (Parousia)? 1 Cor 15:23
4-
The Christ’s will be filled with crown of rejoicing in Parousia, how sure are
you party of the crown of rejoicing? 1 Thessalonians 2:19.
I
am asking you again, ARE YOU READY FOR THE PAROUSIA?
I
am asking you my comrades in the army, fellow footballers, colleagues in
entertainment industry, Muslims counterparts, fanatic Christians, Buddhists
worshippers, the orthodox Christians, the Sabbath observers, the human
activist/rightists, business tycoons, the illuminators, space movers and
everyone who is still thinking, are you ready for the Parousia?
I
want to help you to know more – 2 Timothy 3:16.
I
ask you again, are you ready for the Parousia, how sure are you?
