The Second Coming of Jesus !!!

2 Kings 19: ³⁵ That night the angel of the Lord went out and put to death a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the Assyrian camp. When the people got up the next morning—there were all the dead bodies! 2 & 5 & 8 the second symbol

Matthew 24: ²⁷ For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 3 & 6 & 9 the third symbol

1 Thessalonians 4: ¹⁶ For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud Command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of GOD, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 1 & 4 & 7 the first symbol; ¹⁷ After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. ¹⁸ Therefore encourage one another with these words.

Revelation 16: ¹⁸ Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder and a severe earthquake. No earthquake like it has ever occurred since mankind has been on earth, so tremendous was the quake. ¹⁹ The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. GOD remembered Babylon the Great and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of His wrath. ²⁰ Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found.

Revelation 6: ¹⁴ The heavens receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. ¹⁵ Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. ¹⁶ They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! ¹⁷ For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?”

2 Thessalonians 1: ⁷ and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with His Powerful angels. ⁸ He will punish those who do not know GOD and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. ⁹ They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the Glory of His Might ¹⁰ on the day He comes to be Glorified in His Holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.

Hebrews 9: ²⁶ Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But He has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

1 Peter 5: ⁴ And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the Crown of Glory that will never fade away.

Acts 27: ²⁰ When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved.

Acts 27: ²³ Last night an angel of the GOD to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me ²⁴ and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand trial before Caesar; and GOD has graciously given you the lives of all who sail with you.’

Matthew 24: ⁴² “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. ⁴³ But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. ⁴⁴ So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect Him.

2 Peter 3: ¹⁰ But the day of the Lord will come like a Thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.

Luke 17: ²⁴ For the Son of Man in his day will be like the lightning, which flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other. ²⁵ But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. ²⁶ “Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. ²⁷ People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

Luke 17: ²⁸ “It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. ²⁹ But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all. ³⁰ “It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

Luke 17: ³⁷ “Where, Lord?” they asked. He replied, “Where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather.”

Revelation 22: ¹² “Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with Me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done.

1 Corinthians 15: ⁵¹ Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— ⁵² in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. ⁵³ For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. ⁵⁴ When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

1 Timothy 1: The Lord’s Grace to Paul

¹² I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to His service. ¹³ Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. ¹⁴ The Grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the Faith and Love that are in Christ Jesus. ¹⁵ Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. ¹⁶ But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display His immense patience as an example for those who would believe in Him and receive Eternal Life. ¹⁷ Now to the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the only GOD, be honor and Glory For Ever and Ever. Amen.

Mark 2: ¹⁷ On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

Luke 7: Jesus Anointed by a Sinful Woman

³⁶ When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, He went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. ³⁷ A woman in that town who lived a sinful life learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, so she came there with an alabaster jar of perfume. ³⁸ As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them. ³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, He would know who is touching Him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.” ⁴⁰ Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said. ⁴¹ “Two people owed money to a certain moneyLender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. ⁴² Neither of them had the money to pay Him back, so He forgave the debts of both. Now which of them will love Him more?” ⁴³ Simon replied, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt forgiven.” “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said. ⁴⁴ Then He turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give Me any water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. ⁴⁵ You did not give Me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing My feet. ⁴⁶ You did not put oil on My head, but she has poured perfume on My feet. ⁴⁷ Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.” ⁴⁸ Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” ⁴⁹ The other guests began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?” ⁵⁰ Jesus said to the woman, “Your Faith has saved you; go in peace.”

Luke 7: ³³ For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’ ³⁴ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ ³⁵ But wisdom is proved right by all her children.”

Luke 15: 1 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. ² But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” ⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

Mark 2: ¹⁷ On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

Matthew 9: ¹³ But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

Luke 5: ³² I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”

Matthew 1: ² Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,

Matthew 18: 11 because the Son of Man come to save the lost.

Matthew 20: ²⁸ just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”

Luke 19:  ⁹ Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.  ¹⁰ For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

John 1: John Testifies About Jesus

²⁹ The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of GOD, who takes away the sin of the world!

 John 12: ⁴¹ Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus’ Glory and spoke about Him.

Act 3: ²⁶ When GOD raised up His servant, He sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”

Romans 3: ²⁴ and all are justified freely by His Grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. ²⁵ GOD presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of His Blood—to be received by Faith. He did this to demonstrate His Righteousness, because in His forbearance He had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— ²⁶ He did it to demonstrate His Righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

Romans 5: Peace and Hope

²¹ so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also Grace might reign through Righteousness to bring Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

1 & 3 & 8

¹⁷ For if, by the trespass of the One man, death reigned through that One Man, how much more will those who receive GOD’s abundant provision of Grace and of the gift of Righteousness reign in life through the One Man, Jesus Christ! (8)

¹⁸ Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also One Righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people.

¹⁹ For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the One Man the many will be made Righteous.

1 & 4 & 7

⁸ But GOD demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (8)

⁹ Since we have now been justified by His Blood, how much more shall we be saved from GOD’s wrath through Him!

¹⁰ For if, while we were GOD’s enemies, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His Life!

1 & 4 & 7

¹⁴ Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who is a pattern of the One to come. (5)

¹⁵ But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did GOD’s Grace and the gift that came by the Grace of the One Man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!

¹⁶ Nor can the gift of GOD be compared with the result of one man’s sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification.

1 & 4 & 7

⁵ And hope does not put us to shame, because GOD’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. (5)

⁶ You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.

⁷ Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die.

1 & 4 & 7

²⁰ The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, (2)

2 & 5 & 8

¹¹ Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. (2)

Death Through Adam, Life Through Christ

¹² Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned—

¹³ To be sure, sin was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not charged against anyone’s account where there is no law. (4)

1 & 4 & 7

1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ,

² through whom we have gained access by faith into this Grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the Glory of GOD. (2)

³ Not only so, but we also Glory in our Sufferings, because we know that Suffering produces Perseverance;

⁴ Perseverance, Character; and Character, Hope.

1 & 4 & 7

Hebrews 7: ²⁵ Therefore He is able to save completely those who come to GOD through Him, because He always lives to intercede for them.

Hebrews 7: 1 This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of GOD Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him,

John 3: ⁵ Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the Kingdom of GOD unless they are born of water and the Spirit. ⁶ Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. ⁷ You should not be surprised at My saying, ‘You must be born again.’ ⁸ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

John 4: ⁹ The Samaritan woman said to Him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can You ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)¹⁰ Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of GOD and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked Him and He would have given you Living Water.”
