1 John 2:28 “And now my [little children] abide in him, that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before at his coming.” Commentary: The Apostle John used the term ‘little children’ to illustrate the child like affection a child has for his teacher! Trust him like a child at his second coming! John was saying live your life today for him and you will not be ashamed at his second coming! There are not many things you can have confidence in today! You can trust Jesus for your life here and the one after this life on earth! No one can promise you eternal blessings except Jesus! No government can save you! No organization can save you! No religion can save you! No Pastor can save you! God only requires that you trust him! He is worthy of your trust! He earned your trust at the Cross! No human is capable to do what God has done for you! You cannot earn it! You did not deserve it! Salvation is a gift from God! You have to be honest enough to admit you are a sinner and need the Savior! Trashing the Savior only proves you need him! Saved by grace and not of yourselves! Receiving love is hard to do for some because they have received so little of it In anger our sin rejects love and practices evil! We love to reject love and justify our evil! A change must come to all of us! To receive the Savior means for us to reject our sin and embrace his love! The great mystery is God loves and men hate those who love them! God loves those who hate him! When we hate God we hate each other! When we receive his love we love God and men! You cannot love men without the love of God in you! Only in his capacity are you able to do this! My evil was defeated at the Cross! Christ replaces our evil with his love! The anger of God towards your sin was appeased when those metal spikes were driven into Christ to hold him on the Cross! Now at peace with God and your fellow man! You will not experience his second coming until you have experienced his first coming! Jesus said we must be born again! If you are born again then you are looking for his second coming!
