I Saw

Revelation, last book in the Bible, last verses:

Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds.

Even earth and heaven will flee away from the presence of God at the end, because they are both in a fallen, tainted state from that which He created so long ago.  You know, He IS going to create a new heaven and a new earth!

 Pretty exciting…

And then the last verse describes judgement day, where all will stand before Him and books will be opened, and judgment will take place.

Those who have encountered his presence, humbled themselves, repented and followed after Christ will be asked to enter in…

Those who have rejected the presence, the call, and the salvation offered to them will be judged…

It’s that simple.

We can choose to believe and dwell in his presence all the days of our lives, or we can miss out on the most enjoying, thrilling ride of all…that of being escorted into the place where all is good…where the GOOD and FAITHFUL one dwells…forever.
