Living As Citizens of Heaven

From 7/24/2005

Jesus longs for us to be with Him in Heaven so we can see His glory: "Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world." (John 17:24)

HE CAME IN HUMILITY
     ==> HE WILL COME IN FULL GLORY

He came on a donkey
     ==> He will rise a white horse

He wore sandals and went barefoot
     ==> His feet will be polished bronze

He wore a tattered robe
     ==> He will have white linen

He wore a crown of thorns
     ==> He will wear a crown of diadems (jewels)

He was mockingly called "King of the Jews"
     ==> He will be called the "King of Kings" and "Lord of Lords"

He had eyes of sorrow
     ==> His eyes will be piercing, as if one is looking into the sun

He was silent before His accusers
     ==> He will have a voice like the sound of thunder

Few bowed to Him on Earth
     ==> Every knee will bow and every tongue shall confess

He told Peter to put away his sword
     ==> He shall hold the sword of judgment

Forgiveness
     ==> Judgment

    JOY = Jesus, Others, You  
      

    Meekness = strength under control, restraining of fleshly passions
