Subject: Looking for the Saviour from Heaven! |
Bible Note: Dear fellow believers: I have been enjoying the confident hope of Job found in chp 19:25-27 " I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth; And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh I shall see God: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another..." It is my understanding that Job lived before the giving of the law and could be contemporary with Abraham. I marvel at the insight which he had regarding death and bodily resurrection. I love the words "mine eyes shall behold and not another". People who lived in Job's day did not have the privilege of knowing their redeemer as we today. We look backward by faith to that precious one who lived, who gave his life on our behalf, was buried and rose again on the third day. After his resurrection we find that his body bore the wounds of Calvary. I love the promise given as 40 days hence he was taken up from the mount of olives into heaven "this same Jesus which was taken up from you into heaven, shall come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven. On another thread the question was asked will we recongnize each other in heaven? I don't know. I know one thing for sure that on the day that Jesus comes, faith will give way to sight and we will see him as he is. What joy it will be to join the throng of the redeemed and sing a new song to him who is worthy! Like Job we will behold him in all his glory and splendor. Human words fail to grasp "what it will be to dwell above, and with the Lord of Glory reign" "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him" (1Cor. 2:9 I praise his precious name!
