Teachings – The Winter Past and Gone

THE WINTER PAST AND GONE

UNFOLDING FIFTY-FIVE

WHERE WE ARE

Pastor previously introduced us to the New Jerusalem, the tree of life, and the promise of our healing. However, that day will not come until the appointed day of death. Why are we told of what is to come? That we, in Christ, may live in hope that in our judgment we have an advocate, Jesus. Blessed be the name of the Lord! 

SCRIPTURE

Hebrews 9:27

“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:”

THE WINTER PAST AND GONE
UNFOLDING FIFTY-FIVE

Pastor concludes this short discourse:

“Look forward to your death, ye that are believers in Christ, with great joy. Expect it as your spring-tide of life, the time when your real summer shall come, and your winter shall be over for ever.”

THOUGHT GOING FORWARD

Going forward in hope in Christ Jesus is my thought… my trust in His faithfulness. Therein, I have my joy.

IN TRIBUTE TO SPURGEON’S LOVE OF SHORT RYHMES

Oh joy! Oh blessed eternal rest!
from all earth’s pains and woes!
We’ve lived an endless winter cold,
but with death the spring unfolds.
