Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
Born in a Christian family and raised in Christian
fellowship, I have been deaf and blind to the Gospel and how we need to lead
our lives in this world.
I wanted to make sure everyone was aware of
the Secret coming of Jesus Christ. Why we should be ready for the secret coming ? Why is Christ coming in secret once before judgement day ? What is the difference between second coming and the secret coming of Christ ? Most of you might already know but what are
we doing about this knowledge and truth?
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and
broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But
small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find
it.
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the
kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in
heaven.” Matthew 7
“And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change
and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 18:3
Today’s world even children are being
deceived in to sin through internet, television and cartoons. Arrogance and disobedience is in every household. We have also
become stubborn and forget what Jesus wants from us in this life and what He
has for us in the afterlife.
What is second coming of Jesus Christ?
The Second coming of our Lord is what we
know as Judgement day which happens after 7 years of terrible tribulations. Anti-Christ will show himself as God. There can be no comparison of the tribulations.
“Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day
will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is
revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself
over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up
in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.” II Thessalonians 2
“He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In
the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at
the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end
that is decreed is poured out on him. “Daniel 9:27
“So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination
that causes desolation,’ spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader
understand— 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no
one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in
the field go back to get their cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days
for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20 Pray that your flight will not take
place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again. “Matthew
24
He is filled with fury,
because he knows that his time is short.” Rev 12:12
What is the secret coming? Why in
secret?
“They were looking intently up into the sky as
he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand
here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into
heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.” Acts
1:10, 11
Not many knew Jesus will
be resurrected on the third day after his crucifixion and He went back to
heaven to be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.
Lord God knows how hard it
must be to believe what is unseen and he acknowledged that long ago. He has
greater regard for us believers that He wants to share His glory with us. We
who are just dust yet by His grace we receive these blessings.
Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen
me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have
believed.” John 20:29
“Father, I want those you have given me to be with me
where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved
me before the creation of the world.” John 17:24
“My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so,
would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I
will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.”
John 14:2, 3
There is nothing secret
about this since every detail is written in the scriptures. Secret because the
timing is unknown. When will this happen? No one knows except the Almighty Father.
“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the
angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father Matthew 24:36
But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the
angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be
alert! You do not know when that time will come Mark 13: 32, 33“
How will it be on that day?
Then he said to his disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the
days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it. People will tell you, ‘There he is!’ or ‘Here he
is!’ Do not go running off after them. For the Son of
Man in his day[d] will be like the lightning, which flashes and lights up
the sky from one end to the other.
“It will be just like this on the day the Son
of Man is revealed. 31 On that
day no one who is on the housetop, with possessions inside, should go down to
get them. Likewise, no one in the field should go back for anything. Remember Lot’s wife! Whoever tries
to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.
I tell you, on that night two people will be
in one bed; one will be taken and the other left. Two women
will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left.” Luke 17
What happens at this time?
“Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be
uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the
rest of mankind, who have no hope. For
we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will
bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord’s word, we tell you
that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will
certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven,
with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call
of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up
together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be
with the Lord forever.”
What is needed?
We need the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
We need the gift of tongues to praise God in the spirit in unknown language. We
need the fire anointing. We need to hold on to him. Amidst all the chaos, only
the spirit of the Lord can guide us and save us. The one who stands firm to the
end will be saved.
“Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5
For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive
many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumours of wars, but see to it that you are
not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation
will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines
and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth
pains. 9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and
you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn
away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false
prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of
wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to
the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in
the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.”
Mathew 24:4-14
“And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead
is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to
your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.” Romans 8:11
“I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and
blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the
imperishable. 51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we
will all be changed” I Corinthians 15:50, 51
The Holy Spirit will transform us and raise
us to be with Christ.
