Jesus Christ was the “Firstborn of ALL Creation” and came in the “Form of God” as “Light”! On the first Day of Creation God said, “Let there be Light!” This Light was not the Sun, the Moon or the Stars which were created later… This Light was the “Light of the World” and the “Light of Life.”
Then, when the “Fulness of Time was come, God sent forth His Son” in the “Form of a Servant”, “Made of a woman”, “Made under the Law”, in the “Likeness of men”. Jesus came as a man (the Son of Man), fulfilled His work, and died on the Cross.
Next, God raised Him from the dead and He became the “Firstborn from the Dead”. He ministered to His Disciples for 40 days and was “taken up into Heaven”, where God “made Him a Quickening (Life-giving) Spirit.”
A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
(Luke 19:12)
Finally, Jesus received His Kingdom and returned in Spirit Form — As the Holy Ghost — to enter us! We are the “Temple of God” and the “House of Christ!”
He said, “I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.”
His disciples said to Him, “Jesus, how are you going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?”
Jesus’ answer has been neglected by our so called “Churches”… “I will come to your House!”
If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode (home) with him.
(John 14:23)
Jesus comes to us, where we live every day, to Our Homes, and so does God — Our Father!!!
Man made buildings are NOT God’s Home, nor are they ours. The Scripture says “God does not live in Buildings made by hands.” He wants to live in us, and with us, so does Christ. You can read it for yourself! (Acts 7:48)
Fathers live with their children at Home, not in some other Empty Building. Fathers teach their children themselves, they do not have some other Man teach their children about them…
Would you go to your neighbor’s house or a stranger’s to learn about your Father???
Sounds ridiculous doesn’t it? So is going to a Building to listen to some stranger read to you about God!! God is waiting for you in your own home, in your own “Prayer Closet”, to teach you Himself!!! 🙂
God said, “You do not need any MAN to teach you, I will teach you Myself!” He wrote The Book! Who better to Teach it?
Jesus told us specifically where to Pray (talk with God) — in our own homes — in our own “Closets” or “Secret Inner Chambers”! He said, “When you talk with God, go into your Secret Place and shut the door… And your Father, who sees you in secret, will reward you openly!” This “Secret” place is in your own home!!!
Men have exalted themselves, and their Buildings above God and His Own Building — Whom WE ARE.
Paul asked, “Do you not know your body is the Temple of God, and Christ’s Home?” They live IN you! This is the New Life, Eternal Life, the ONLY Life — “Christ IN You, The Hope of Glory.”
Christ is NOT coming again to us at His “Second Appearing”. He is coming FOR us, to take us Home. We will MEET Him in the Air to be WITH Him forever, AMEN!
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
(1 John 3:2-3)
Why do we «dress up» for church? Why does the pastor preach a sermon each week?
I want to finish my thought here. If God treated us fairly Jesus would have never died on the cross and we would have never been offered salvation. I praise God that He loves me, He never fails me and He goes to plan “B” and on. Look how He blessed Israel, they sinned and went away from God countless times, but He was faithful and loved them any way. Romans 5:8 But God commended His love toward us, in that while we were sinners Christ died for us.
Praise be to God!
I believe you’re ignoring (hopefully simply due to lack of knowledge) a boat load of Scripture when you make this conclusion and/or you must have a wrong understanding of what the Second Coming is. First, if you read the descriptions in Isaiah, Zephaniah, Joel, Jeremiah and Habakuk about the coming of the Lord, for starters, you’ll see that this event has not yet come to pass in human History. We do find certain elements of it that have already happened upon Jesus’ dying on the cross such as an earthquake, darkness and even the resurrection of some dead when Jesus died (Mt 27:51-53) but none of them describe the full event, which includes the dead body of the saints being raised and then raised up in the sky followed by the saints alive going up in the sky, much like an abduction. Even the raising of the dead in Matthew is confirmed by Timothy to not be the actual raising we’re waiting for in the Lord’s coming (2 Timothy 2:18). On top of that, there are tons of historic events that need to take place before Jesus’ second coming, including the rebuilding of Solomon’s temple in Jerusalem which has not happened yet. And if His coming had already passed, the New Testament would have a massive amount of lies since the Apostles who lived AFTER Jesus’ resurrection and the dispensation of the Holy Spirit warn the people again and again to prepare for the coming of the Lord, which is the day Jesus will come to remove the church from the earth right before his final destruction upon it, just like it happened in Sodom & Gomorrah. Please study this topic deeper so you no longer mislead people.
Jesus was born as a man (first coming) Jesus died and was Resurrected (second coming) already happened.
