When The Of Man Arrives Matthew 25:31+32 “When the of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit down on his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. Jesus' prophecy about the last days reveals that he will for the very first time act as Judge of all nations after the destruction of false religion. Some of the events that will occur during that time are recorded: Matthew 24:29-31 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the sign of the of man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in grief, and they will see the of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a great trumpet sound, and they will gather his chosen ones together from the four winds, from one extremity of the heavens to their other extremity. When you examine those verses, you will note that Jesus there foretells events that are similar to the ones he mentions in the parable of the sheep and the goats. Matthew 25:33-46 And he will put the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left. “Then the King will say to those on his right: ‘Come, you who have been blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the founding of the world*. For I became hungry and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you received me hospitably; naked and you clothed me. I fell sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you visited me.’ Then the righteous ones will answer him with the words: ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and receive you hospitably, or naked and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ In reply the King will say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ “Then he will say to those on his left: ‘Go away from me, you who have been cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his angels. For I became hungry, but you gave me nothing to eat; and I was thirsty, but you gave me nothing to drink. I was a stranger, but you did not receive me hospitably; naked, but you did not clothe me; sick and in prison, but you did not look after me.’ Then they too will answer with the words: ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison and did not minister to you?’ Then he will answer them, saying: ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of these least ones, you did not do it to me.’ These will depart into everlasting cutting-off, but the righteous ones into everlasting life.” * 'the founding of the world' here refers to the beginning of satan's system of things and not the creation. For example, the of man comes with glory and with angels; all tribes and nations are gathered; those judged as sheep 'lift [their] heads up' because 'everlasting life' awaits them. Those judged as goats 'beat themselves in lamentation,' realizing that 'everlasting cutting-off' awaits them. Luke 21:25-28 Also, there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth anguish of nations not knowing the way out because of the roaring of the sea and its agitation. People will become faint out of fear and expectation of the things coming upon the inhabited earth, for the powers of the heavens* will be shaken and then they will see the of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory but as these things start to occur, stand up straight and lift up your heads, because your deliverance is getting near.” * 'the powers of the heavens here refers to the powers of the governments of man. Which of these positions will you choose? The position of the sheep or of the goats? The choice needs to be made now! You can't wait until false religion has been destroyed as it will be much too late. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Such an important choice. Yours, Katidid. |
