Jesus Rules And Reigns

Our message this week is the last of a four part series outlining the 16 events that will occur "On That Day" or "The Day Of The Lord." Typically, it is believed these events will take place at the end of the Tribulation Period.

There Are Five Themes Which Are An Integral Part Of These End Times Events

Israel's Enemies Attempt To Destroy Jerusalem

Our Lord God Intervenes And Wins A Mighty Victory

Jesus Physically Returns To Earth

The Jewish People Recognize Jesus As Their Messiah

Jesus Rules And Reigns From The Rebuilt Temple In Jerusalem

The last three events show just a small picture of what it will be like living under the Eternal Kingdom of Jesus when he rules as King of Kings and Lord of Lords:

Zechariah 14:13 - "On That Day, men will be stricken by The Lord with great panic. Each man will seize the hand of another, and they will attack each other." 

The enemies of our Lord and His people will actually attack each other. Is anything too difficult for our Lord?

Zechariah 14:20 - "On That Day, Holy To The Lord will be inscribed on the bells of horses and the cooking pots in  the Lord's house will be like sacred bowls in front of the altar."

The smallest of details will illustrate the control and holiness of our Lord.

Zechariah 14:21 - "On That Day, There will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the Lord Almighty."

Lineages and nationalities will not be important during the reign of Jesus Christ. These are replaced by two important questions for all people and the questions are . . . Do you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? Is your name written in the Lamb's Book of Life? 

I trust this series of messages were enlightening and encouraging as they illustrated what lies ahead for Israel but also for all who know Jesus as their Savior. If you realize you do not know Jesus as your Savior or are not sure, please pray this prayer with me: 

"Jesus, I know I am a sinner! I ask you to forgive me of my sins, to become my Lord and my Savior and to grant me eternal life. Thank you, Lord Jesus.

"At The Name Of Jesus Every Knee Should Bow In Heaven And On Earth And Under The Earth, And Every Tongue Confess That Jesus Christ Is Lord, To The Glory Of God The Father." Philippians 2:10-11

Blessings! Frank
