The Rapture And The Image Of God In Man
The Church of this generation has lost its beauty in Christ in its search for the beauty of the world. To be like this world in any and every disposition of your life is to be unlike Jesus Christ. He, the blessed Bridegroom,is coming after His espoused Bride. His espoused Bride must prepare herself by His graces to be found in the image of His holiness and purity. He will take no other with Him when He comes. Apostle Paul said it powerfully in his letter to a church of the first generation after Christ’s death and resurrection. They spoke regularly of His coming and discussed in clear terms who He was coming for. "Husbands, love your wife’s, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it. That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of the 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.’ (Ephesians 5: 25-27) That sure isn’t what the new preachers are preaching today. If you are deceived by this backslide generation it will be a sad day when He is come and gone and you realize you have missed it.Please send your questions or comments to jrc@pawcreek.org.
