BIBLE READING: 1 Corinthians 15:50-55
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God.; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep but we shall all be changed – in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound , and the dead will be raised incorruptible and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “ Death is swallowed up in victory.” O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?
Trumpet: The trumpet will be blown by the Angels of the Lord and whenever it sounds, it signifies the end of this world. In the past, some fake prophets have prophesied that the world would come to an end but it did not come to pass because God did not send them. God did not sound the trumpet and so nobody knows when the messiah will come. When the Angels blow the trumpet, Jesus will leave Heaven and be in the air(firmament) ,that is, He is not coming to the earth again. In the air, He will receive His own people and rupture takes place. That means those that have died in the Lord will be ruptured ( resurrected ) and will be called into Heaven and those alive will be ruptured and transformed to meet Jesus in the air. John 14:1-4 says “ Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My father’s house, are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself: that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know.” 2,000 years ago, Jesus went to prepare a place for u and said He will come back to take you.
When rupture takes place, Jesus will reign in the air for three and half years; those that are dead will be ruptured, then followed by those that are alive and this will happen within a twinkle of an eye. Rupture will take place a few seconds just the same way you blink your eyes and anyone that is not ruptured is lost. At this time, the Holy spirit will be with the Lord and there will be a feast of bridegroom in His Father’s house . On the day of rupture, the world will be in commotion,; the Holy Spirit would have finished His work; joy, peace, protection etc of the word has finished because the Holy Spirit is no longer on earth. The flesh will not rupture but the spirit being. During rupture , Satan will be allowed to deceive the world for 1,000 years and the President of the world , Antichrist, would will be given powers to rule the world ; he will tell everybody to worship him and nobody will be able to overpower him.
There was a pre- Adamic and Adamic world . In the Adamic world, God destroyed the whole world by flood during the time of Noah. After that, God also destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah when they did not repent of their sins. Our God is a consuming fire. God says you should repent of your sins before the trumpet sounds. 2 Peter 3:9 says “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some, count slackness but is longsuffering toward us not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” You are planning for the things of the world and not where you will spend eternal life. The Lord says He has opened the door for you. Antichrist would rule this world for 1000 years where people’s hands will be cut off and eyes gorged out.. Before the trumpet sounds, God wants you to see Jesus. Some Pastors would encourage their members to bring millions and billions to run the church . God is not interested in your money. All these memorials can only propel you to prosperity on earth but it cannot lead you to salvation. In America,, people live rough lives. Instead of running straight to the church, people walk majestically to the house of God as if there is no creator. God is good but He is a consuming fire. Hebrew 12:29 says “ For our God is a consuming fire.” Again, Deuteronomy 4:24 says “ For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.” Also, Deuteronomy 9:3 says “ Therefore understand today that the Lord your God is He who goes over before you is a consuming fire. He will destroy them and bring them down before you: so you shall drive them out and destroy them quickly as the Lord has said to you. Moreover, Exodus 24:17 says “ The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of God.” God delivered the Israelites from the hand of Pharoah, all the first born of the Egyptians were destroyed, the Lord parted the red sea for them to pass through, God fed them with manner for 40 years, cloud of glory shielded them, pillar of fire to heat up their body during cold etc God loved the Israelites but the same God destroyed them in the wilderness. Numbers 14:28 says “ say to them, As I live says the Lord, just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you.” The Israelites never saw the promised land except Caleb and Joshua. As you are planning for your future, children’s education , plan for eternal life. You can be religious but not spirit filled. The Kingdom of God is not about buying and selling , drinking but righteousness. If you see God, you see yourself the way God sees you, that is, repentance. Psalm 14:3 says “ They have all turned aside. They have together become corrupt There is none who does good, No, not one.” Again, Psalm 53:3 says “ Every one of them has turned aside; They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good. No not one,” Supporting these verses is Romans 3:12 which says “ They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no not one.” Isaiah chapters 1 to 6 made us to understand that Isaiah served God in sin. Isaiah chapters 1 to 5 even told us that Israel is a faithful harlot. But when he saw the Lord, he repented. If you are a Pope, Apostle, Bishop , Pastor and do not repent , you will go to hell. God loved lot and sent an Angel to save Lot and his wife from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Lot’s wife even prepared some delicious food for the Angel who later commanded them to leave the city and never to look back. Lot’s wife thought about her properties that were to be destroyed and looked back . She turned to a pillar of salt. Lot’s wife saw salvation but did not make it to Heaven. If God ask you to do something, and you do not do it, judgment will come upon you. As a Pastor, if you are deceiving the children of God, you will go to the lake of fire. You have to change and know Jesus. The love of money have deviated people from salvation. If you think your job is not allowing to worship the Lord, you may leave the job. On the day of judgment, you will not see anybody to help you. People you thought will be in heaven will go to hell.
Jesus is coming back soon. God is no respecter of anybody. God is not ready to do your will . Luke 16:15 says “ And He said to them, you are those who justify yourselves before men but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.” Again, John 12: 20-24 says “ Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast. Then they came to Philip who was from Bethsaida of Galilee and asked him ,saying, Sir, we want to see Jesus. Philip came and told Andrew and in turn Andrew and Philip told Jesus. But Jesus answered them ,saying, “ The hour has come that the Son of Man should be glorified. Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.” The Greeks wan t to see Jesus because they knew something was wrong with them. You have to die ( dissatisfy) yourself before you see the kingdom of God. Luke 19:8 says “ Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold.” He repented; And Jesus said to him, today salvation has entered your house for He has come to seek and save that which was lost.” Proverb 18:10 says “ The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.” You should always accept your blame and say sorry for your wrong doings , humble yourself before the Lord and you will see Jesus.
I f you see God, you will feel peace. Philippians 4:7 says “ And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” If peace disappears from your life, it then means that you are afraid. If you are not faithful to your wife , your will be troubled by your conscience ; you are convicted but God will condemn you. You do not make mockery of somebody’s poor dressing. Instead, provide better clothes for him.
Proverb 15:10 says “ Harsh discipline is for him who forsakes the way. And he who hates correction will die.” Hell is real. If you light up your stove at home and put your finger on the flame for 30 seconds, your finger will be burnt. How much more the unquenchable fire in hell?
God is giving you another chance because you are still alive. Anyone that is not preaching the righteousness of God will go to the lake of fire. You will make Heaven in Jesus Name. Amen. The General Overseer encouraged everybody to live a righteous life for the time is short. He made alter call and prayed for the church to be steadfast to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
