End times

14 July 2011

John 16:33 I have said this to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

Jesus is the Prince of Peace, He is love personified, He is the joy of salvation, and He brings order from chaos, and where He is we find peace, love and joy. Many people claim to be filled with the Holy Spirit, many claim to be many things in the name of Jesus Christ, but no matter what we claim, or in what situation we may find ourselves in we should always have His peace, His love and His joy. The fruit of a Christians life is found in these three things.

So when people talk about ends times and that Jesus is coming soon, we rejoice with the concept, yet we do not realise that He should have already invaded our hearts and all that we do. When Jesus does return He will bring peace, love and joy, yet so often end times is seen by others as bringing chaos and war. It is the sin of man whose fruit is chaos, war, discord, wickedness and it is because in the end times this will be the normal practise of man. Because of sin mankind brings its own destruction upon itself the consequence of which is hunger, poverty, disease, unemployment and the abuse of the worlds resources for greed.

As Christians we should have no fear of the end times, because we will be transformed in a twinkling of the eye into immortal bodies alive with Jesus Christ for eternity.

Be encouraged today to be filled with love, peace and joy.

David

Point to ponder: Where Jesus is peace abounds.

Question to consider: Are you filled with love, peace and joy?
