    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jan 26, 2003
    based on 85 ratings
     | 27,811 views

    God promises great rewards to those who seek Him, and it is a proper motive for obedience to consider these rewards.

    Last week, we discussed the topic of "seeking God." We saw that the pursuit of God is a lifelong quest. It’s not merely a phase in our spiritual growth, nor is it an optional activity.

    While our country is fascinated with how the world may end, there hasn’t been much emphasis on the second coming of Jesus. The disciples didn’t doubt if Jesus was coming back – they just didn’t know when it would happen. We’ll look at some “signs” of Hi
