What if today was the day that Jesus was returning? Would you be ready or would you have to make yourself ready? We don't know when Jesus will return and we are instructed to be ready at all times.
Mark; 13:32-33
("But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.)
There have been times when someone has predicted the exact time Jesus would return only to have their prediction proven wrong. Jesus tell us that no one knows the time, but to recognize the signs preceding His return.
Since we don't know when Jesus will return which could be any moment, we need to be ready and not put off coming to Him for salvation. If you have already ask Jesus into your heart and given your life to Him as Lord and Savior, then you are ready, but if you haven't put your faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, you aren't ready. So then how can you get ready? The Bible says that their is only one way to Heaven and that is through Jesus Christ.
John; 14:6
(Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.")
It is really very simple. You come to the only source of salvation and that is through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. He died on the cross to pay the penalty for the sin of the world so that all who come to Him for forgiveness of sins may be forgiven.
John; 3:16-18
(For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.)
We cannot merit or work our way to eternal life. It is a free gift from God to all who believe in His Son Jesus Christ. It is a choice each of us has to make, we either chose to believe or not to believe in Jesus Christ. The choice you make affects your eternal destination.
John; 3:36
(He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.")
Believe in Jesus Christ today and look forward to His return.
God Bless You!
