Step Into Eternity!

Listen to this blog.

On this mountain
the [Lord] All-Powerful
will prepare for all nations
a feast of the finest foods.
Choice wines and the best meats
will be served.

Here the [Lord] will strip away
the burial clothes
that cover the nations.

The [Lord] All-Powerful
will destroy the power of death
and wipe away all tears.
No longer will his people
be insulted everywhere.
The [Lord] has spoken!

At that time, people will say,
“The [Lord] has saved us!
Let's celebrate.
We waited and hoped—
now our God is here.”

Isaiah 25:6-9

Will we be tempted to think, "This must be a dream" when Jesus returns? We will see things that we have never even imagined. We will eat food that has no equal on earth. When Jesus returns we will become aware that our bodies are new and young and strong and that death is no longer a threat!

There will be no more insults for Christians. We will call each other to celebrate the arrival of Jesus.

I rejoiced as a young man because of the life that lay before me. I rejoice as an old man for the same reason. The life I look forward to now is not the one I will live in this ravaged and painful body. Soon oh, very soon either Jesus will come and take me home, or my body will breathe it's last and I will fly away to Jesus!

That is a most marvelous hope. This life is a drop of water, the next is an ocean! In this life we consider ourselves rich if we have a pound or two of asphalt from the streets of Heaven.

The doomsayers proclaim that The End is Near, but for children of God the End is not Near, instead it will be the beginning. Jesus will come and let us step into Eternity, which has already been going on forever!
