Ready or Not!

Matthew 24:44 "Therefore be ye also ready:for in such an Hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh".

"But of that day and hour knoweth no man,no, not the angels of heaven,but my Father only".Jesus is coming back,and he is coming for a church without spot or blemish.He has done everything needed for man to be ready at His return, He said from the cross "it is finished".Excuses won't do,they all went to the cross with the sin of the world. When he comes it will be like the ten virgins,those who are ready will go in with Him and those who are not will be left out,regardless of the title or position.He will separate the wheat fron the chaft,the saved from the lost.Are you ready?

Jesus could come back right now today ,and every prophesy in the bible would have been fulfilled.The danger is many have begun to sleep and slumber,when God's word tells us to watch and pray.Just like in the days of Noah,we have become a people of pleasure and self gratification.We have become self righteous,living based on our interpetation of God's word and not on the truth of God's word.We have lost focus to the truth in God's word and the purpose of His sacrifice. We are no longer doers but hearers only of His word, even though He said "only those who DO the will of my Father will enter in".We have gotten so focused on worldly pleasures and material gain,we no longer lift Jesus,it has become more of look what Jesus gave me.Getting things have become more important than saving people,positons and titles are more important than purpose, the size of the church congregation more important than the church's service to God,and religious rituals has replaced worship.Jesus is coming back, and he said at the time you least expect it.Are you ready?

Jesus tell us to also be ready.This is a prepared place for a prepared people,and Jesus has done all needed to prepare us.It is when you don't think He is coming that he will come.So what ever you want the Lord to find you doing when he comes ,you should be doing right now.Are you ready?
