The Blessed Hope

God has revealed different dispensations of times. He has a schedule as and many events that the Bible has prophesied have already come to pass. This present dispensation is called the age of grace. This is indeed a unique time in which we live; for there is one great event to take place, which each believer is looking forward to and that is the personal, imminent return of the Lord Jesus to take His people to be with Himself even as He promised.

This is what the Bible says about the Blessed Hope -

“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."   John 14: 1-3

“But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
1 Thessalonians 4: 13-18

“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ ...”   Titus 2: 13
