God’s Promise 2U
There sure has been a lot of excitement going around!
Black Friday!
Cyber Monday!
What about Parousia?
This is a word taken from the Greek and it is the name given to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Here is where we find that event described in God’s WORD:
1 Thessalonians 4:16-5:2
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.
But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.
NKJV
As we await the day of His appearing, let this promise that it will be “as a thief in the night” keep us ever mindful that the Christ of Christmas is more important that the stuff of the holiday!
