If only you can reach out to the Savior’s Hands that holds all power, the hands that breaks the binding chains of sin, the nail-pierced Hands of a dying man who suffered in your place; then will you experience the Joy of true salvation.
Matthew 1:21. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

Beloved, of a truth all as far back as the days of Adam had sin and cone short of His glory.
What the entire human race and that includes you deserve from Him is judgement. But in love, because of His son that He sent to the world to pay the penalty of your sins, you receive mercy.

And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God. I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.

In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;

Dearly beloved, pause a little and throw away every presumption. Have you received biblical salvation from Jesus?
Are you free from sins within and without? Are you a new creature? Is your own name in particular is in the back of life? If your response to all these questions are positive, praise God. But keep the experience till He comes.
But if you are not sure, then reach out to Him immediately for repentance and genuine biblical salvation. It is well with you in Jesus name.
JESUS CHRIST, THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD, REACH OUT TO HIM AND EXPERIENCE BIBLICAL SALVATION.
Friend, day after day you are getting closer to two things.
1. Clarion call to eternity with God.
2. The dawning rapture.
But then for your eternity with God to be secured and guaranteed. You must have personally become a glorious church. Those that are graceless church will end up damned and not partake in the rapture. See what the Bible says.
Ephesians 5:25 -27. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
To help you attain eternity with God or partaking in the rapture and the marriage supper of the Lamb that follows immediately after the rapture, you must have been washed and purged with the blood of Jesus.
See what the scriptures says about all of these for you to adequately prepare.
Revelation 1:5: -6. And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Revelation 7:9-17. After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Revelation 19:6-9. And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
But then those who are not washed and purged with the precious blood of Jesus shall be denied all of these, because their names are not found in the book of life. Friend please ensure your name is written in that book and kept there till Jesus comes.
It is possible for your name to be written and be deleted again, if you go into compromise. Please do everything by the grace of God to overcome every attempt of satan to sway you away from the narrow way that leads to eternity.
The good Lord shall help you in Jesus name. See these fearful words from the scriptures and be very watchful.
Exodus 32:33. And the Lord said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
Revelation 21:27. And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
Revelation 3:5-6. He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
See you at the top in Jesus name.
