Notes for a three-year journey through the whole Bible

"Now Is The Day Of Salvation."
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.
