JUNE 16
BEHOLD HE COMETH

Scripture:  Rev. 1:7 “Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him and all kindred of the earth shall wail because of him.  Even so, Amen.”

    Revelation is the only prophetic Book of the New Testament.  Jesus is revealed in this prophecy as the soon coming King!  This verse is showing us what will happen when He comes.
    The second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is seen in two parts.  First, there is the Rapture of the church, when He comes for His saints.  And then the Second coming, about seven years later, when He returns with His saints!
    “This is the theme of Revelation, the coming again of Jesus Christ and the justice and judgment which He is to execute upon the earth. Jesus Christ is coming again, and when He comes, this verse says two things will happen.
    1.  Every eye shall see Him. The glory of God is so bright and so full of light that it actually shines brighter than the sun (Rev. 21:23). When Jesus Christ returns, there will be a display of His glory that will surround the earth, and the reflection of the Lord's glory will be seen by every eye. 
    2.  Every person who has rejected Jesus Christ and crucified Him shall wail and mourn because of Him. This refers to all the enemies of Christ, not only to those who crucified Christ. (Preacher's Outline and Sermon Bible – Commentary)
    The reality of our Lord’s return is clearly taught in the Scriptures.  The believers are interested in the first coming, the Rapture, because it is then that the Lord will take us home to be with Him forever!  Are you ready for His coming?  Should He come today, would you be ready to meet Him?  If you’re not ready for Him to come then why not get ready today? Why not make your preparations?
