    In the parable of the distribution of pounds, in Luke 19:13, Jesus tells us how Christians should live until He returns. • He tells believers to OCCUPY TILL HE COMES!

    Will You Be Ready?

    Contributed by Scott Nichols on Jan 18, 2019
     | 12,970 views

    What if in the next moment - even as my words fall upon your ears - Christ returned with the shout of the archangel and the trumpet blast? "Faithful and true would He find us here, if He should come today?" Would you be ready?

    The hymn we have just sung asks a pointed question. A question that I fear too often we dismiss in our daily lives. With all the concerns of living in the present moment - with all of the accompanying joys or frustrations - we fail to give much thought to the final moment. That moment when time, as ...read more
