God’s REDEMPTION or the world’s Reparation? “I choose God’s REDEMPTION through JESUS CHRIST to the World Without End in New Heavens and a New Earth” (Isaiah 65:17-18) (Revelation 21:1-4).

God’s REDEMPTION is most important for ALL human beings and it NOT to be compared to promises for Reparations because NO AMOUNT OF MONEY in this world can REDEEM a human soul to HEAVEN at this End of the World (Matthew 24:35-36)!

DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE to go after the things of this world because to love this world is to follow Lucifer, the devil aka Satan who is fallen from heaven and is destined to be PUNISHED FOREVER in the Lake of Fire in Perdition (Revelation 14:11; 17:11).

What good is all the money in this world when this heaven and earth passes away on the LAST DAY (Isaiah 24:19) (Revelation 11:18, 16:17)?

NO AMOUNT OF MONEY ON THIS EARTH WILL BE ABLE TO PURCHASE GOD’s LIGHT required for EVERLASTING LIFE (John 3:16-18)!

“Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever” (Psalm 73:25-26).

GOD has given JESUS CHRIST only the POWER to give human beings LIGHT required to inherit EVERLASTING LIFE! “For God so loved the world, that [HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that whosoever [BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD] not perish, but [HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE] (John 3:16).

JESUS, the Only Begotten Son of God says: “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have [ETERNAL LIFE]: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not [COME TO ME, THAT YE MIGHT HAVE LIFE]” (John 5:39–40).

“Therefore doth my Father love me, because [I LAY DOWN MY LIFE, THAT I MIGHT TAKE IT AGAIN]. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. [I HAVE POWER TO LAY IT DOWN, AND I HAVE POWER TO TAKE IT AGAIN]. This commandment have I received of my Father” (John 10:17-18).

“I am the resurrection, and the life: [HE THAT BELIEVETH IN ME, THOUGH HE WERE DEAD, YET SHALL HE LIVE]. And [WHOSOEVER LIVETH AND BELIEVETH IN ME SHALL NEVER DIE]. [BELIEVEST THOU THIS]?” (John 11:25-26).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, [IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYING, HE SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH] (John 8:51). 

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

HEAVEN. God’s Elect, the Children of God are only a FEW who came down from HEAVEN, and when our Lord and Savior JESUS comes on the Last Day he is COMING to take HIS SHEEP back home FOREVER to HEAVEN (Matthew 24:31-34).

Our Lord Jesus very clearly says: “[BLESSED ARE THE POOR IN SPIRIT]: for theirs is the [KINGDOM OF HEAVEN]” (Matthew 5:3).

“[BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS]: for they shall be called the children of God. [BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART]: for they shall see God” (Matthew 5:8-9).

“For many are called, but [FEW] are chosen” (Matthew 22:14).

“[I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD]: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep” (John 10:11).

“[MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE, AND I KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW ME]: And [I GIVE UNTO THEM ETERNAL LIFE]; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one” (John 10:27-30).

“[HE THAT HATH RECEIVED HIS TESTIMONY HATH SET TO HIS SEAL THAT GOD IS TRUE]. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand” (John 3:33–35).

“[AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM] shall be [PREACHED IN ALL THE WORLD] for a witness unto all nations; and [THEN SHALL THE END COME]” (Matthew 24:14).

“[WHEN THE SON OF MAN SHALL COME IN HIS GLORY, AND ALL THE HOLY ANGELS WITH HIM], then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory; and before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats; and he shall set the [SHEEP ON HIS RIGHT HAND], but the [GOATS ON THE LEFT]” (Matthew 25:31-33).

“Then shall the King say unto them on his [RIGHT HAND], ‘[COME, YE BLESSED OF MY FATHER, INHERIT THE KINGDOM PREPARED FOR YOU FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD]’” (Matthew 25:34).

“Then shall he say also unto them on the [LEFT HAND], [DEPART FROM ME, YE CURSED, INTO EVERLASTING FIRE, PREPARED FOR THE DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS]. And these shall go away into [EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT]. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: [BUT THE RIGHTEOUS INTO LIFE ETERNAL]” (Matthew 25:41, 46).

“[FEAR NOT, LITTLE FLOCK]; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

“I am with you alway, [EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD]. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

GOD is the ONLY POWER and has given JESUS, the ONLY Begotten Son, the ONLY SAVIOR, the keys of Hell and of Death, and the POWER to give human beings LIFE (Revelation 1:18).

“[FOR THERE IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR] between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6).

To obtain LIFE is to inherit ETERNAL LIFE for which human beings must REPENT AND BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST!  “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).

“For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. [FOR AS IN ADAM ALL DIE, EVEN SO IN CHRIST SHALL ALL BE MADE ALIVE]” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22).

“For it is written, ‘I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.’ [FOR THE PREACHING OF THE CROSS] is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it [IS THE POWER OF GOD]. For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe” (1 Corinthians 1:18–19, 21).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

“[AND THE TIMES OF THIS IGNORANCE] God winked at; but now [COMMANDETH ALL MEN EVERY WHERE TO REPENT]: Because he hath [APPOINTED A DAY], in the which he will judge the world in [RIGHTEOUSNESS] by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” (Acts 17:30-31).

“[GOD IS NOT A MAN, THAT HE SHOULD LIE; NEITHER] the Son of man, [THAT HE SHOULD REPENT]” (Numbers 23:19).

“If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.

[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON OF GOD HATH THE WITNESS IN HIMSELF]: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

[AND THIS IS THE RECORD, THAT GOD HATH GIVEN TO US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON]” (1 John 5:9-11).

Now then, as THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE THINGS THAT ARE ETERNAL IS THROUGH JESUS CHRIST who died for us; for this purpose then WE SHOULD LIVE UNTO HIM AND NOT UNTO OURSELVES (2 Corinthians 5:15).

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; [THAT IF THOU SHALT CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH THE LORD JESUS, AND SHALT BELIEVE IN THINE HEART THAT GOD HATH RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, THOU SHALT BE SAVED]. For [WITH THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS]; and [WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION]” (Romans 10:8-10).

“[JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches” (Revelation 3:22).

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star” (Revelation 22:16).

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

“[HE WHICH TESTIFIETH THESE THINGS SAITH, SURELY I COME QUICKLY]. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Revelation 22:20-21).

GOD IS LIGHT and JESUS CHRIST was sent to this earth to be the LIGHT OF THE WORLD. To LIVE human beings must REPENT AND BELIEVE the GLORIOUS LIGHT OF THE GOSPEL (John 1:1-4; 3:16-18; 14:6).

“[THIS THEN IS THE MESSAGE] which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that [GOD IS LIGHT, AND IN HIM IS NO DARKNESS AT ALL]” (1 John 1:5).

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the [FATHER OF LIGHTS], with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning” (James 1:17).

“[FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]” (John 3:16).

“[FOR GOD SENT] not [HIS SON INTO THE WORLD] to condemn the world; but [THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED]” (John 3:17).

“He that believeth on him is not condemned: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HATH NOT BELIEVED] in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” (John 3:16-18).

“[AND THIS IS THE CONDEMNATION], that [LIGHT] is come into the world, [AND MEN LOVED DARKNESS RATHER THAN LIGHT], because their deeds were evil.  [FOR EVERY ONE THAT DOETH EVIL HATETH THE LIGHT, NEITHER COMETH TO THE LIGHT], lest his deeds should be reproved. [BUT HE THAT DOETH TRUTH COMETH TO THE LIGHT], that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God” (John 3:19-21).

The Apostle Paul said: “[BUT IF OUR GOSPEL BE HID, IT IS HID TO THEM THAT ARE LOST]:

In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, [LEST THE LIGHT OF THE GLORIOUS GOSPEL OF CHRIST, WHO IS THE IMAGE OF GOD, SHOULD SHINE UNTO THEM].

For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.

[FOR GOD, WHO COMMANDED THE LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS], hath shined in our hearts, [TO GIVE THE LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GLORY OF GOD IN THE FACE OF JESUS CHRIST]” (2 Corinthians 4:3-6).

JESUS CHRIST says: “‘He that [BELIEVETH ON ME], [BELIEVETH NOT ON ME, BUT ON HIM THAT SENT ME]. And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. [I AM COME A LIGHT INTO THE WORLD, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON ME SHOULD NOT ABIDE IN DARKNESS]’” (John 12:44–46).

“[I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD: HE THAT FOLLOWETH ME SHAL]L not walk in darkness, but shall have the [LIGHT OF LIFE]” (John 8:12).

“[AS LONG AS I AM IN THE WORLD, I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD]” (John 9:5).

“[NO MAN CAN COME TO ME], except the Father which hath sent me draw him: [AND I WILL RAISE HIM UP AT THE LAST DAY]” (John 6:44).

“[FOR AS THE FATHER RAISETH UP THE DEAD, AND QUICKENETH THEM; EVEN SO THE SON QUICKENETH WHOM HE WILL]. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: [THAT ALL MEN SHOULD HONOUR THE SON, EVEN AS THEY HONOUR THE FATHER]. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and [BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT SENT ME, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE, AND SHALL NOT COME INTO CONDEMNATION; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE]” (John 5:21-24).

“[IT IS THE SPIRIT THAT QUICKENETH]; the flesh profiteth nothing: [THE WORDS THAT I SPEAK UNTO YOU, THEY ARE SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE]” (John 6:63).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall [NEVER SEE DEATH]” (John 8:51).

“[MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE, AND I KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW ME]: And [I GIVE UNTO THEM ETERNAL LIFE]; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one” (John 10:27-30).

“[FEAR NOT, LITTLE FLOCK]; for it is your Father’s [GOOD PLEASURE TO GIVE YOU THE KINGDOM]” (Luke 12:32).

“I am with you alway, [EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD]. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

Do you have the SAVIOR to escape the Wrath of God at the End of the World (Revelation 11:18)?

“O earth, earth, earth, [HEAR THE WORD] of the LORD” (Jeremiah 22:29).

“[LOOK UNTO ME, AND BE YE SAVED], all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else” (Isaiah 45:22).

“For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the LORD God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye” (Ezekiel 18:32).

“[FOR HE IS NOT A GOD OF THE DEAD, BUT OF THE LIVING: FOR ALL LIVE UNTO HIM]” (Luke 20:38).

“‘Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be [SAVED], and thy house’” (Acts 16:31).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH], but have [EVERLASTING LIFE].

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

“[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON HATH EVERLASTING LIFE]: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the [WRATH OF GOD] abideth on him” (John 3:36).

“[NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD AT ANY TIME; THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18).

“[FOR THERE IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR] between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6).

Jesus Christ says: “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for [IF YE BELIEVE NOT THAT I AM HE, YE SHALL DIE IN YOUR SINS]” (John 8:24).

“For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me” (John 6:38).

“LET not your heart be troubled: [YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME]” (John 14:1).

“Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father” (John 6:46).

“All things that the Father hath are mine” (John 16:15).

“I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE]” (John 10:30).

“[THE FATHER LOVETH THE SON, AND HATH GIVEN ALL THINGS INTO HIS HAND]” (John 3:35).

“[THE TIME IS FULFILLED], and the Kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15).

“I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance” (Luke 5:32).

“Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3).

“Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have [ETERNAL LIFE]: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not [COME TO ME, THAT YE MIGHT HAVE LIFE]” (John 5:39–40).

“[HE THAT REJECTETH ME, AND RECEIVETH NOT MY WORDS], hath one that judgeth him: [THE WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM IN THE LAST DAY]” (John 12:48).

“[FOR AS A SNARE SHALL IT COME ON ALL THEM THAT DWELL ON THE FACE OF THE WHOLE EARTH]. [WATCH YE THEREFORE, AND PRAY ALWAYS], that ye may be accounted [WORTHY TO ESCAPE ALL THESE THINGS] that shall come to pass, [AND TO STAND BEFORE] the Son of man” (Luke 21:35-36).

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

CHRIST IS COMING (Revelation 11:18). There is ONLY ONE COMING! There is NO SECOND COMING! JESUS IS COMING ONE TIME on the LAST DAY which will be the DAY OF CHRIST the DAY OF JUDGMENT at the End of the World (Matthew 24:36; 25:31-34; 41; 46).

DO NOT BE DECEIVED by doctrines of the so called “rapture” and a “Second Coming”!

BELIEVE the word of God!

“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, [TELL US, WHEN SHALL THESE THINGS BE]? and [WHAT SHALL BE THE SIGN OF THY COMING, AND OF THE END OF THE WORLD]?” (Matthew 24:3).

“The LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one. [AND HIS FEET SHALL STAND IN THAT DAY UPON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES], which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south” (Zechariah 14:8–9, 4).

“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call” (Joel 2:31-32).

We must hold steadfast to the TRUTH and BELIEVE every word of GOD. We must not waver any anytime in our FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST because the time is soon COMING when our FAITH will be tried given the events unfolding in this world (Matthew 24:1-21).

The REDEMPTION of the Kingdom of God takes place in TWO PHASES as descried by the Apostle Paul when he said: “[CHRIST THE FIRSTFRUITS]; afterward they that are [CHRIST’S AT HIS COMING]” (1 Corinthians 15:23).

Who are the FIRSTFRUITS?

The FIRSTFRUITS to be redeemed from this earth to Heaven are the Saints or Servants of God who will be killed or “…slained for the word of God…” (Revelation 6:9-11) who are priests of God and of Christ (Revelation 20:6). In the Book of Revelation John wrote:

“These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the [FIRSTFRUITS UNTO GOD AND TO THE LAMB]. And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are [WITHOUT FAULT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD]” (Revelation 14:4).

The REMAINING FRUITS are at the CHRIST’S COMING on the LAST DAY when those who are Christs: risen from the dead and alive will be GATHERED UNTO HIM IN JERUSALEM and then REDEEMED TO HEAVEN (Matthew 25:31–34) (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17).

Jesus very clearly says: “[IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS] shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory” (Matthew 24:29-30).

“[AND HE SHALL SEND HIS ANGELS] with a great sound of a trumpet, and [THEY SHALL GATHER TOGETHER HIS ELECT FROM THE FOUR WINDS, FROM ONE END OF HEAVEN TO THE OTHER]” (Matthew 24:31). 

“[THEN COMETH THE END], when he shall have [DELIVERED UP] the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).

“[JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

“To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:11).

God’s Elect have nowhere to go other than to WAIT on the SALVATION of God. “It is good that a man should [BOTH HOPE AND QUIETLY WAIT] for the [SALVATION] of the LORD” (Lamentation 3:26).

“[OUR SOUL WAITETH] for the LORD: he is our help and our shield” (Psalm 33:20).

“Before the LORD: for he cometh, [FOR HE COMETH TO JUDGE] the earth: he shall [JUDGE THE WORLD WITH RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND] the people [WITH HIS TRUTH]” (Psalm 98:13).

“[FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD MEN HAVE NOT HEARD, NOR PERCEIVED BY THE EAR, NEITHER HATH THE EYE SEEN], O God, beside thee, what [HE HATH PREPARED FOR HIM THAT WAITETH FOR HIM]” (Isaiah 64:4).

“Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 89:52).

“I [WAIT] for the LORD, my soul doth [WAIT], and in his word do I hope” (Psalm 130:5).

“[LEAD ME IN THY TRUTH], and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I [WAIT] all the day” (psalm 25:5).

“TRULY my soul [WAITETH] upon God: from him cometh my salvation” (Psalm 62:1).

“My soul, [WAIT] thou only upon God; [FOR MY EXPECTATION IS FROM HIM]” (Psalm 62:5).

“[REST] in the LORD, and [WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM]: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth” (Psalm 37:7-9).

“The LORD is good unto them that [WAIT] for him, to the soul that seeketh him. [IT IS GOOD THAT A MAN SHOULD BOTH HOPE AND QUIETLY WAIT] for the salvation of the LORD” (Lamentations 3:25-26).

“Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from [EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING]: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD” (Psalm 106:48).

God’s Elect have nowhere to go other than to WAIT on the SALVATION of God. “[BUT THEY THAT WAIT] upon the LORD shall renew their strength; [THEY SHALL MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES]; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31).

“Before the LORD: for he cometh, [FOR HE COMETH TO JUDGE] the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth” (Psalm 98:13).

“It is good that a man should [BOTH HOPE AND QUIETLY WAIT] for the [SALVATION] of the LORD” (Lamentation 3:26).

“[FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD MEN HAVE NOT HEARD, NOR PERCEIVED BY THE EAR, NEITHER HATH THE EYE SEEN], O God, beside thee, what [HE HATH PREPARED FOR HIM THAT WAITETH FOR HIM]” (Isaiah 64:4).

“[OUR SOUL WAITETH] for the LORD: he is our help and our shield” (Psalm 33:20).

“Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 89:52).

JESUS, THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, says: “[BUT OF THAT DAY AND HOUR KNOWETH NO MAN], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Matthew 24:36).

“But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Matthew 24:37).

“[WATCH YE THEREFORE, AND PRAY ALWAYS, THAT YE MAY BE ACCOUNTED WORTHY TO ESCAPE ALL THESE THINGS THAT SHALL COME TO PASS], and to stand before the Son of man” (Luke 21:36).

“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come” (Matthew 24:42).

“[REJOICE YE IN THAT DAY], and leap for joy: [FOR, BEHOLD, YOUR REWARD IS GREAT IN HEAVEN]: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets” (Luke 6:23).

“[IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS] shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:”(Matthew 24:29).

“And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, [AND THEY SHALL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN WITH POWER AND GREAT GLORY]” (Matthew 24:30).

“[IN THAT DAY, HE WHICH SHALL BE UPON THE HOUSETOP], and his stuff in the house, [LET HIM NOT COME DOWN] to take it away: and [HE THAT IS IN THE FIELD, LET HIM LIKEWISE NOT RETURN BACK]” (Luke 17:31).

“[I TELL YOU, IN THAT NIGHT] there shall be [TWO MEN IN ONE BED; THE ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER SHALL BE LEFT]. [TWO WOMEN SHALL BE GRINDING TOGETHER]; the [ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER LEF]T. [TWO MEN SHALL BE IN THE FIELD]; the [ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER LEFT]” (Luke 17:34-36).

“And they answered and said unto him, [WHERE, LORD]? And he said unto them, ‘[WHERESOEVER THE BODY IS, THITHER WILL THE EAGLES BE GATHERED TOGETHER]” (Luke 17:37).

“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call” (Joel 2:31-32).

“Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by [OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM], whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thessalonians 2:1).

“THEN COMETH THE END, when he shall have [DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM TO GOD, EVEN THE FATHER]; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

REDEMPTION TO HEAVEN: “Christ the [FIRSTFRUITS]; [AFTERWARD THEY THAT ARE CHRIST’S AT HIS COMING]” (1 Corinthians 15:23).

Now, the FIRST TO BE REDEEMED from this earth are NOT CHRISTIANS as is represented in the so called “rapture of the church” doctrine.

God first chose the people of Israel for his inheritance and then sent his Son Jesus to ALL Jews and Gentiles (Luke 2:32) (John 3:16-18) “to open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God” (Acts 26:18).

“But thou, [ISRAEL, ART MY SERVANT, JACOB WHOM I HAVE CHOSEN], the seed of Abraham my friend” (Isaiah 41:8). “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and [THE PEOPLE WHOM HE HATH CHOSEN FOR HIS OWN INHERITANCE]” (Psalm 33:12-18).

Jesus underscored this very fact in his communication with a Samaritan woman by a well saying: “Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: [FOR SALVATION IS OF THE JEWS]” (John 4:22-24).

The Apostle Paul added, said: “The Gentiles should be fellowheirs, as co-inheritors with the Jews and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel” (Ephesians 3:6).

“[THAT AT THAT TIME YE WERE WITHOUT CHRIST, BEING ALIENS FROM THE COMMONWEALTH OF ISRAEL], and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world. [BUT NOW IN CHRIST JESUS YE WHO SOMETIMES WERE FAR OFF ARE MADE NIGH BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST]. For [THROUGH HIM WE BOTH HAVE ACCESS BY ONE SPIRIT UNTO THE FATHER]” (Ephesians 2:12–19).

The FIRSTFRUITS to be redeemed from this earth are the 144,000 servants of God who will be killed or “…slained for the word of God…” (Revelation 6:9-11), and are PRIESTS OF GOD AND OF CHRIST (Revelation 1:1-7,  7:1-3, 20:6). In the Book of Revelation John wrote: “And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed [AN HUNDRED AND FORTY AND FOUR THOUSAND OF ALL THE TRIBES OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL]” (Revelation 7:4).

“[THESE ARE THEY WHICH WERE NOT DEFILED WITH WOMEN; FOR THEY ARE VIRGINS]. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. [THESE WERE REDEEMED FROM AMONG MEN, BEING THE FIRSTFRUITS UNTO GOD AND TO THE LAMB]. And in their mouth was found no guile: [FOR THEY ARE WITHOUT FAULT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD]” (Revelation 14:4).

The Apostle Paul clearly pointed out God’s REDEMPTION PLAN when he wrote: “Christ the [FIRSTFRUITS]; [AFTERWARD THEY THAT ARE CHRIST’S AT HIS COMING]” (1 Corinthians 15:23).

JESUS EXPLAINED IN DETAIL WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN HE COMES ON THE LAST DAY (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). when he will separate the sheep; (those who are Christs) from the goats (those who are the devils) in (Matthew 25, KLV).

“Then cometh [THE END], when he shall have [DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM TO GOD], even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).

In glory of the FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT. Amen.

The LORD God is RIGTHTEOUS in ALL HIS WAYS (Psalm 145:17) and the Lord Jesus is the RIGHTEOUS (Jeremiah 23:6). Only the RIGHTEOUS will inherit the Kingdom of Heaven (Isaiah 60:19–21) (Daniel 12:1) (Matthew 25:31-34) (Revelation 22:3-6).

When TIME ENDS on the LAST DAY at the END OF THE WORLD (Matthew 24:35-36) (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17) (Revelation 6:15-17; 11:18): “[TRUTH] shall spring out of the earth; and [RIGHTEOUSNESS] shall look down from heaven” (Psalm 85:11).

“Then cometh [THE END], when he shall have [DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM TO GOD], even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).

Our Lord Jesus says: “Every one that is of the [TRUTH] heareth my voice” (John 18:19).

“[MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE, AND I KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW ME: AND I GIVE UNTO THEM ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 10:27).

“[BLESSED ARE THEY WHICH ARE PERSECUTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS’ SAKE]: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:10).

“[BLESSED] are the [PEACEMAKERS]: for they shall be called the [CHILDREN OF GOD]” (Matthew 5:8).

“And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be [MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS], saith the Lord Almighty” (2 Corinthians 6:18).

“[FEAR NOT, LITTLE FLOCK]; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

“I am with you alway, [EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD]. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

We must therefore do our best to seek to live RIGHTEOUSLY. “For ye are all the [CHILDREN OF GOD] by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24-29).

The Apostle Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles reminds us, also said: “As it is written, There is [NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO, NOT ONE]:” (Romans 3:10).

“But now the [RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD] without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

Even the [RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WHICH IS BY FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST UNTO ALL AND UPON ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE]: for there is no difference:

[FOR ALL HAVE SINNED, AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD];

Being [JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE] through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:” (Romans 3:21-24).

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the [RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD] in him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

“For therein is the [RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD] revealed from [FAITH TO FAITH]: as it is written, The just shall live by [FAITH]” (Romans 1:17).

“THEREFORE being justified by [FAITH], we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by [FAITH] into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” (Romans 5:1-2).

“For Christ is the [END OF THE LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS TO EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVETH]” (Romans 10:4).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD] not perish, but [HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

“For God, who commanded the [LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS], hath shined in our hearts, to give the [LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE] of the [GLORY OF GOD IN THE FACE OF JESUS CHRIST]” (2 Corinthians 4:6).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).
