Jesus is Coming Sooner Than We Think
By Shirley R. Watts,

Let’s sing.

Soon and Very Soon Soon and very soon We are going to see the King Hallelujah, hallelujah, We’re going to see the king. No more crying there, We are going to see the King Hallelujah, hallelujah, We’re going to see the King All shall live again on the other side… soon and very soon.

Hallelujah Hallelujah We’re going to see the King!

There are still untold millions who have been and are being deceived of this fact…that Jesus is coming again. There is no hope of eternal life without Jesus Christ in their life. They are without hope (approx. 67%, 500-750 million)! These are our responsibility! Christians

We have a hope and we know Jesus is coming again and very soon! How often do you think of The Coming of Christ? How many persons have you told of this? Do you know what to expect? The Christians in the Thessalonian Church had questions… they asked about their loved ones who had died who were believers. Have you thought about your loved ones as to their future, the lost and the saved?

Paul comforts them and us, (1 Thess. 4:1318).

The Comfort of Christ’s Coming

“But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.”

“For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 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” (NKJV).

No Worry

Christian, those who are truly born again need not worry about death or life after death, because God has revealed it all in His Word. It is all about Jesus Christ and what He has done for us. It is believed that many “church members” are not saved (50%). How about you? Are you truly born again? Church member what do you believe about the Rapture?

Today many are taught that the grave is the end…it is not! Jesus conquered death and so have Christians! We do not fear death or the future. We have the Truth! We have assurance of His return and all the comfort we need… Amen!

Jesus is coming again…Soon! The ways things are today it may be much sooner that we think. I have been looking for Jesus since September 1965. I know He is coming for me. This is very comforting.

So, where do we Christians go when we die? Where are the Christians who have died already? The soulspirit of the born again goes immediately to be with the Lord Jesus as soon as you draw your last breath. “We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord” (2 Cor. 5:8). We close out this life and wake up in the presence of Jesus! Amen, Amen! What a Savior! What a Living God we serve!

All Christians who have died before the Rapture will return with Jesus to meet all living Christians in the air. What a reunion this can be if our loved ones are ready, or with Him. We will receive our glorified bodies (Phil. 3:20-21; I Cor. 15:47-58).

Jesus can return today (I Cor. 15:52)! Millions will vanish! Will you be in this meeting in the air?

Share this with the lost and also believers as we listen for “the shout with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God.”

Death is the beginning of “forever.”

It will happen quickly!

Moving to a new place (Rev. 21:1-8)!

I hope you will sing the chorus until He comes.
