In
our thinking about the Lord’s Return, it is very important that we do
not forget that the decision between salvation and judgment is one which
must be made here and now. The Bible speaks of the Day of the Lord’s
Return as a Day of salvation for the Lord’s believing people. The Lord’s
Return will also bring a Day of judgment for all who turn their backs
on the Saviour. The Bible also speaks of another day of salvation,
another day of judgment. That day is today. This is precisely what Paul
says in 2 Corinthians 6:2 - “Now is the day of salvation.” Now is the
time for making your decision for Christ. Now is the time for faith in
the Saviour. Jesus underlines the importance of our present response to
Him. He does this, in John 3:18, when He speaks of those who are already
under judgment because of their unbelief: “he who does not believe is
condemned already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only
Son of God.” The Lord awaits for our response now. May God help us to
put our trust in His Son, Jesus Christ. May God help us to await
Christ’s Return with joyful expectation.
God's Word is "a lamp to our feet and a light to our path." He has "wondrous things" to teach us as we pray "Open my eyes that I may see" (Psalm 119:105, 18, 11). "May God's blessing surround you each day, as you trust Him and walk in His way. May His presence within guard and keep you from sin, go in peace, go in joy, go in love." "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your Name give glory, because of Your mercy and Your truth" (Psalm 115:1).
