Are we really the winners?

 

This is very easy to know when the judges are fair, but sometimes in this world, we have many judges who are very unfair for whatever reason, and that is how we know we are in the LAST DAYS of existence in it, when everything is upside down, when any good will be considered bad and the bad is considered right for the ones in power to change the good laws for their benefit; when some children will attack their parents, and parents their children on account of their greed; when people who once were known as genuine, suddenly start to blaspheme against their own, which discredits them.  The Word of God says it in many places, but especially on the letter of Jude, the half brother of Jesus, who said: “In the last time there will be mockers, following after their own ungodly lusts.” These are the ones who cause divisions, worldly-minded devoid of the Spirit. (Jude 18-19) And we see this all the time, lately. That is why some things ill disposed people accomplish seem unthinkable and sadly that they are allowed by God; but the Holy Scripture says it:  Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.  (Galatians 6.7-8)  And that is why we must trust God our Lord for we know He knows best, and when He allows something “bad” to happen it’s because it will benefit, no doubt, those who love Him. (Romans 8.28)

That is demonstrated completely in the death of Jesus, when the responsible for it thought they had finished with their “stumbling rock” that died, and would not “bother” them anymore, it was when the Spirit started working. First, despite the money the “responsible” paid the guards to lie about it, Jesus arose from the dead and gave the gift of the Holy Spirit to the ones who followed Him, with the promise of eternal life, and left us the peace that overpasses all understanding; and the ones who had been hiding, afraid of the “killers” started preaching, challenging anyone who thought different, and cured the sick, and were brave and happy doing the right thing, not being afraid of tortures, prisons, or even death, letting the WHOLE WORLD know what had happened. And in the time when there was no TV, or radio, or phone, or social networks, the whole world knew, and decided to put Jesus Christ as the division of times (BC, AD), and as an example of love so as to celebrate His birth (Christmas); and for as much as the opposition pays, the fame of the good will not ever die. WHO WON THEN? And just as Ezra, the priest of the Israelite told the king who had offered help on the reconstruction of the temple mission, we affirm the same: “The hand of our God is favorably disposed to all who seek Him, but His power and His anger are against all those who forsake Him” (Ezra 8.22b)

How do we forsake our Lord?  . . . when we don’t seek to do what’s right according to the Scriptures, like the 10 Commandments, and everything that Jesus taught and it’s all in the Scriptures that if you do not read it, you will never know, so you cannot argue with Him when He comes for His church to which He will not judge, for having believed on Him, yet all the others will have to respond for their actions. Whether you believe on Him or not, He will come back and will judge you for your actions. We are all going to die some day (except the ones who are chosen to last till the end) and we hope we can do it in peace with God on the hope of His promise of eternal life because the death of the nonbelievers have been a terrible one according to their history, for there is so much hate and harm done to others and to themselves that their soul cannot rest in peace forever and ever. This is very sad and awful, which is why we urge people to change their way of hatred living and ask God for forgiveness. He’s calling on you today to be a winner of those promises and start living your life in the everlasting JOY.

Of the many promises in the Bible, most of them have been accomplished, except the ones of the very end times which are about to be lived, and 2020 was nothing compared to what’s coming to the evildoers because the worse experience will be to have Jesus in front of you asking you why you should enter the Kingdom of heaven. What will your answer be?

Some people think that by not believing on something, it won’t come true, but I tell you that like He’s promised, Jesus will come back, and this time not like a sheep to die to pay for our sins, cause He’s already done that; this time will be like the Lion of Judah to judge the World for all its wrong doing: Behold, He’s coming with the clouds, and EVERY EYE WILL SEE HIM. (Revelation 1.7a)  And . . . EVERY KNEE WILL BOW. . . EVERY TONGUE WILL CONFESS that JESUS CHRIST is LORD, . (Philippians 2.10a,11)
