May you be infused with strength and purity, filled with confidence in the presence of God our Father when our Master Jesus arrives with all his followers. —1 Thessalonians 3:13
One of the most powerfully encouraging teachings from Jesus is his promise to return.
Jesus is coming back!
Jesus’ return was the lens that his closest followers viewed the world through.
Not only do his teachings give us perspective for this life and the next, but the fact that he rose from the dead validated every other claim he made. His disciples reasoned, “He said that he would overcome death, and he did. So if he says he is coming back, he will.”
Today, allow the hope of his return to be the lens through which you see the world. Allow this hope to guide you through every decision you make.
Jesus is coming back.
And why not join us for worship this Sunday, 10AM PDT at CenterPoint. Or, you can join us online here, on our CenterPoint Facebook page. But whether you worship with us onsite or online—I’m praying that he will make your heart strong, blameless as you look forward to his arrival.
Also, this song from Jordan Feliz “Jesus is Coming Back” has been going through my mind today. Enjoy.
Jesus is coming back!
Love you,
Pastor Bill
