Christ Jesus our Hope: Living in Light of Christ's Return
Have you ever wondered what the Bible teaches about the return of Christ? Perhaps you know about the Gathering Together and meeting the Lord in the air upon his return. But do you know what the Scriptures teach about the Christian’s inheritance, future reward, or the prize and crown? Is gaining knowledge of the Hope just an intellectual exercise, or does it impact your day-to-day living? Christ Jesus Our Hope: Living in Light of Christ’s Return answers these and other questions. At more than 400 pages, covering some 700 verses, this book considers the Christian’s hope in great depth.
In the first chapters, we cover the basics regarding Christ’s return: when will he appear, what will take place, how do we prepare for his second coming? The middle chapters cover the topis of the Christian believer’s reward, inheritance, and crown. When will each saint be rewarded and what for? What’s the difference between their inheritance and their reward? And what does the crown represent? How many crowns are there? The book concludes with a thorough discussion of the nature of the reward, the new authority structure created in Christ, and running the race to the finish. All that will take place at Christ’s return, including the giving out of the rewards and crown, motivates the Christian to live for God in this day and time, knowing that it will impact them for eternity!
Eight appendices convey important ancillary information that is essential to understand. We include studies of the Day of the Lord, the Judgment Seat of Christ, the New Body, and more. The book concludes with a comprehensive FAQ section, where we answer 40 of the most commonly asked questions from attendees of our seminars. Our goal in writing this book is to help Christian believers remain faithful to God’s calling and set their priorities on things above, not on things of this earth, for Christ is our life.
