The Big Idea: 

If you are like me and you are waiting expectantly for the return of Jesus, you might think, “It doesn’t seem like He is coming quickly. It seems like he is waiting a long time.” But remember, God doesn’t see time the way we do. For example, the Scripture says to God a thousand years is like a day.


Main Points:

1. If by faith you can believe in the virgin birth, the crucifixion, and the resurrection, then by faith you can believe in the return of Jesus for his church.
2. From the first century to the 21st century, Christ-followers have always believed Jesus could return at any time.
3. What if you knew Jesus was coming today? Would it impact how you live your life? Would it change anything about how you live? We don’t know when, but we do know He is coming.


Today’s Scripture Verses:

“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” (John 14:3)

“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.” (Acts 1:11)

“For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.” (Titus 2:11-13)
