Going to the other side with Christ. ( click for more details.)

Going to the other side with Christ.

Mark  4:35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.  4:36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.  4:37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.  4:38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?  4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.  4:40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

What is the biblical meaning of the other side we are going with Christ?

Psalms  23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

John  12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Let the blessed Holy Spirit further explains it.

We are going to the other side of earthly and eternal fulfilments.

Earthly fulfilment.

Psalms  23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

John  12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Exodus  23:25 And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.  23:26 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.

Deuteronomy  11:12 A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.  11:21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.

Psalms  91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.  91:2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.  91:3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.  91:4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.  91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;  91:6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.  91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.  91:10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.  91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.  91:12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.  91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.  91:14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.  91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.  91:16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

John  17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

1 Corinthians  2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Eternal fulfilment.

Psalms  23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

John  12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

John  17:24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

Revelation  3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

How will these happen?  Who are the people that shall benefit out of the ministry of Jesus?

Luke  4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

Matthew  11:5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.

Isaiah  66:2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.

Matthew  5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

The people are Bible believing believers that are poor in the spirit.

They have contrite spirit and trembles at God’s unchanging eternal infallible words.

Isaiah  57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

Do you tremble at the word of God?

John  3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.  3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Are you really born again?  A new creature in Christ?

Revelation  20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Exodus  32:33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

Is your name in the book of life?

Hebrews  12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

Are you following peace with all men and walking in Biblical holiness daily?

Luke  1:75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

Luke  19:8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.

Have you done your restitutions?

Is your life regulated by the word of God?

Matthew  4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Are you living with eternity in view?

Will you be part of the imminent rapture or eternity with God?

You must give your life to Christ and be Biblically born again and be sanctified. 

Then by the grace of God, you will get to the other side with Christ in Jesus name.

Mark  4:35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

Let us pray.
