Subject: The Rapture, when will it be? |
Bible Note: We need to concentrate our efforts on the Gospel of Grace and not look at Revelation as a puzzle book, but a picture book which reveals God's plan. He is in charge of history and we are to spend our time working out our salvation with fear and trembling. With our main focus on the great commission. Our foundation is based on the Gospel. James Boice in his last book written before his death made the following statement: "Without these five confessional statements-Scripture alone, Christ alone, Grace alone, Faith alone, and Glory to God alone-we do not have a true church, and certainly not one that will survive for very long. For how can any church be a true and faithful church if it does not stand for Scripture alone, is not committed to a biblical Gospel, and does not exist for God's glory? A church without these convictions has ceased to be a true church, whatever else it may be." Food for thought, where are you concentrating you efforts, on solving the puzzle? Jim Raisler |
