Acts 1:11 ” ‘Men of Galilee they said,’ why do you stand here, looking into the sky? This same Jesus who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven. “‘ Jesus has to come back—He cannot possibly forget about us. He has made a promise. He loves us far too much to not make that round trip and how glorious His second trip will be. When? In our time-soon–in God’s time–soom–hang on tight–He is coming soon.

Acts I:7″He said to them, ‘it is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem , and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth,'” You and I are witnesses for our Heavenly Father. We do not know His timing, but we can be fully confident that all He has said is true and will absolutely happen. Our Father could tell us His timing, but that would not be for our good. Why not tell us His timing? Let’s ask Him when we see Him.

Acts 1;4 “On one ocassion, while he as eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized wih water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” Jesus new exactly what He was talking about. Pentecost was coming. A wonderful day was coming. Jesus did not want anyone to miss out.

II Peter 3:13 “But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.” God has never made a promise He did not fulfill. It is impossible for our God to do anything other than perfection. The promise: He will return. The promise: He will create a new heaven and earth. The promise: You and I, along with all faith filled adopted children will enjoy the tremendous benefits of God’s second coming. As humans we have a little fear of Jesus’ second coming. Let that fear go—has God ever not taken care of you? Let His complete love for us eliminate all fear, always.

II Peter 3:11 “Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives.” Living life is not easy. Living life representing our God is not easy. Living life as an adopted, loved child of God is not easy. Living life holy and godly is impossible. We all need a Savior. Fortunately our Savior lives and we are saved. Can you think of a greater blessing?
