The Red Horse!

“And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.” – Revelation 6:3

While Praying the Rosary, I saw the Red Horse standing outside its’ stable. Ready!

Revelation 22: Jesus Said Come!

“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”=Revelation 16

“And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.”-Revelation 17

So often, we think of the Book of Revelation as frightening. The world does its’ best to make it so. But it’s not really. At least not to those who truly Follow Jesus.

Take for example the above verse. In verse 16, Jesus is simply confirming that the Book of Revelation is True. As it is.

Revelation 17 is simply inviting us all to come to Jesus to be Saved. There is urgency in this invitation, for one day it will be too late and Jesus, who loves each person, wants us all to be Saved 🙂

In verse 12 it says “And, behold, I come quickly”. This is Jesus talking. But many ask, why hasn’t Jesus come yet. The answer may be more simple than we think.

The Ancient Greek translation of this word is not quite the same as our word quickly, it’s “suddenly”. Much of the Bible teaches us not to wait, to accept Jesus as our Savior NOW. To Follow Jesus NOW. To live as God instructs us NOW. This is why, we simply may not have time to make any changes if Jesus comes Suddenly!

Don’t let time run out on you! Accept Jesus and Follow Him NOW!

Before it is too late…

Staying On The Narrow Path

“The Narrow and Wide Gates”

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. ¹⁴But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it”

There is a tendency among Americans to think that the vast majority of people go to Heaven. Sadly, this is not true. Jesus told us in the above verses that only a few find the way to Heaven. And while we want to tell everyone we love that they are going to Heaven, no matter what choices they make in this life, if we truly love them, we will tell them the Truth-their choices matter!

God sent Jesus to Save us, but we have to choose whether or not we want to be Saved. In other words, we need to choose to accept Jesus as our Savior. For a Gift, no matter how wonderful, is not received unless it is accepted!

So many will say, “I accepted Jesus so I can do anything I want”. This is not true. For if we truly believe in Jesus, if we truly accept Jesus as our Savior, than we will Follow Him. And to Follow Jesus means to Follow the teachings of the God’s Word! And we don’t get to change those Teachings!

“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” – Revelation 22:18-19

If we wish to go to Heaven, we need to accept Jesus as our Savior and Follow God’s Word as it is, not as we sometimes wish it were…

Call on Jesus today and Follow Him to Heaven 🙂

Prepare, Pray & Be Ready!
