Jesus is Our Ark

Ok, so I promised back in November that I was going to start sharing about the judgement that is going to be poured out on this Earth in the not-so-distant-future.  As believers in Jesus Christ, we will not be here for this judgement.  Jesus is our Savior and he is going to save us from this terrible time of calamity and death.  We will escape these things.  As believers we do not have to endure the wrath of God!  It is reserved for those who choose not to believe on Him.  God gives us every opportunity to turn to Him and be saved.  It is not His will that any should be lost.  If any remain for this period of tribulation, it is by his or her own choice!!  God doesn't send anyone to hell.  We put ourselves there by denying Jesus Christ.  He is the narrow path that leads to LIFE!!!!!!!!!! 

Do you remember the story of Noah from the Old Testament?  Noah and his family were the only righteous people left on Earth.  The Earth was filled with wickedness.  God decided to destroy the inhabitants of the Earth with a flood.  He saved Noah and his family along with 2 of every animal by keeping them safe in the ark.  They floated above the flood waters until the waters receded.  Jesus is our ARK! :)

The details I will be sharing will be coming from my study on the book of Revelation..the very last book of the Bible..and my use of a Bible Study Commentary by J. Vernon McGee.  The purpose of my sharing is to make you aware of the events that are to come and present to you that Jesus is our REFUGE and STRONGTOWER from the impending storm!  You have a CHOICE and do not have to be left behind for this judgement unless you choose to be.  The world today is being controlled by Satan (as it has been since the Fall in the garden of Eden) and the enemy of our souls is lying to us.  He wants us to believe that all roads lead to heaven..that if we are pretty good people and live a decent life that God will let us in the pearly gates.  The truth is, entrance into heaven has nothing to do with us and everything to do with Jesus.  It's all about believing in Him and what He did on the cross.  None of us will ever be "good enough" to earn our way into heaven.  God is so holy and perfect...we can never do enough good to get in by our own merits.  Our best is filthy rags to him!  A dirty menstrual cloth.  It is by HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS that we can join Him in heaven.  When we believe on Jesus His righteousness is transferred to us!  Phew!  The pressure is off.  I just have to believe and rest in Him.

So...much more to come..
