That Day…

There have been days that changed the world. The last event that changed the world was 9/11. I knew we were at war when those planes flew into the Twin Towers in New York and the Pentagon. Most Americans could not look away from the TV coverage. It affected a large part of the world.

There will be an event coming soon that will change the whole world. The day when God comes into Earth’s atmosphere with a loud command and with the trumpet sounds. Then, the dead in Christ will instantly have their glorified body and begin to rise to meet Jesus in the air. Also, those still alive and Christians will be transformed from our earthly body into our glorified body and begin to rise.  

My Grandmother’s picture is now hanging in my office.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 NLT

And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died. 15 We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet him ahead of those who have died.[b16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the believers who have died[c] will rise from their graves. 17 Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the Earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever. 18 So encourage each other with these words.

1 Corinthians 15:50-52

 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. 51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

READ Mathew 24 – about the last days

This day will begin the final days of God’s judgment and transformation of this Earth. No one on 9/11/2001 had any thought this day would be their last day on this Earth. No one knows the day of the rapture of the church, but Jesus did say in Matthew 24:32-34 “when you see these things, you know it is near, right at the door. “This generation will not pass away until all these things have happened.”

I BELIEVE WE ARE IN THE LAST GENERATION…

 THIS DAY WILL COME… ARE YOU READY?

Let you LIGHTNSIDE look forward to the day Jesus calls us home.
