THE DAILY TRUMPET
"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
Jesus Christ left this planet after walkng upon it for some thirty-three years. He returned to His heaven home in the land of glory from whence He came. He left with the promise that He would on day return, and He gave the disciples certain signs which would evidence of His Second Coming. Those signs have been upon us for some time, the violence and corruption continues to increase, and God promised to do a short work upon the earth. It's been over two-thousand years. By all appearances the day of His return seems to be drawing near. The "shout" and the "trump" may be heard at anytime. Oh my friends, what a great and glorious day it will be! Whether we be among those who are "caught up," or among those who "rise first;" it will be a day of great glory, excitement, and splendor for those who know Him. On the other hand; it will be a day of great fear, confusion, and complexity for those who are left behind to suffer the wrath and judgment of God which He has promised those who reject and refuse Him. Do you know Him? Can you say with certainty, "preacher, if the trump sounded today, I would be among those who meet Him in the air." Can you say with certainty, "preacher, I know with certainty if I die today, I have a home prepared for me in heaven."
