Promise of Eternal Glory

Member
"The name of the city henceforth shall be The Lord is there" -
Ezekiel 48: 35. RSV


Jahweh Shamma - "the Lord is there.

Here in the two words is the promise of Eternal Glory. The Christian life is spent in the past, in the present and also in the future: and if we leave out any one of those three dimensions our Christian life will be unbalanced.

We life in the past.....Yes we do! As Christians we constantly look back to the deliverance that God has wrought for us. We look back to our own experience and how God has saved us. - and may we never lose the wonder our conversion: even if it was a gradual conversion, we look back to the saving hand of God in our lives. Remembering what we were before He delivered us. Let the difference between the past and the present remain in our thinking. Live in the past.

Live in the present. Because we live out the Christian life in the here and now. And unless we stress the importance on the present, relating it to Gods delivering hand in the past, and the Christian anticipation of a glorious future, we would be very poor Christians indeed.

But we also live in the future. Because the future is what God has reserved for us in heaven. WE are entitled to look into those wonderful experiences that will one day be ours. We are entitled to look at the book of the Revelation and to wonder at the marvels of that glorious city where there will be no need of the sun, nor moon for He will be the glory there: He will be the light. And Jesus our Saviour, we will see and know Him in a way never know to us before. He will be there. He will be there to welcome us: He will take away the sorrow and sighing, and all pain. He will be there to give us that eternal crown of glory that fadeth not away......Look forward to it....Amen!

Christian brothers and sisters one day we will be there. And we will see His face. What a meeting What a gathering that will be.

In that city....In that city...In that city built foursquare
I am going there to my home so fair, in that city built foursquare.
