Begin with the End
Have
you ever started a book by reading the last chapter? Some book enthusiasts
compulsively read the end of a story first, and then start again at the
beginning. Most say knowing the ending helps them appreciate the finer details
of the story.

The Son of Man is going to come with his
angels in the glory of his Father.
Matthew 16:27

Do you
know the end of the Bible? In the last chapter of the last book, Jesus is
basically saying “Look, I am coming soon and my reward is with me.” He invites
those listening to come partake of His free gifts and spend eternity in bliss
with Him. And He warns those rejecting Him they are on the edge of an eternity
without God’s wonderful presence.
As the end of another year approaches, are you prepared for Christ’s return? If you were to suddenly hear heavenly beings announce the approach of the King of kings, would your heart leap in anticipation of your Savior’s presence, or would fear drive you to dread and retreat? Make no mistake…when the end comes, every nation and every person will confess Jesus Christ as Lord! Pray for America and its leaders – and personally prepare yourself: the end of the book is the beginning of eternity.

Kabul, Afghanistan woke up to the sound of explosions on Christmas morning,
after the American embassy came under attack just after dawn.
