~ Are Your Thoughts and Decisions Aligned With Reality? ~
Our culture has a saying: “There are only two sure things—death and taxes.” The Word of God provides a different list of things that are sure!
Universal Death ~ Each of us are terminal the day we are born! “And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation” (Hebrews 9:27-28).
Exposure of Sin ~ “Be sure your sin will find you out” (Numbers 32:23b). “And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation” (Hebrews 9:27-28).
The Truth of God ~ “Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: ‘The Lord knows those who are His,’ and, ‘Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity’” (2 Timothy 2:19).
The Truth of Biblical Prophecy ~ “And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit” (2 Peter 1:19-21).
The Truth of Christ’s Second Coming ~ “He who testifies to these things says, ‘Surely I am coming quickly’ Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!” (Revelation 22:20).
Eternity Future ~ “This hope [literally: this certainty] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil, where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek. (Hebrews 6:19-20).
