What Does it Mean
iv Those to come
Deuteronomy 29: 14~15 “I make this covenant and this oath, not with you alone, 15 but with him who stands here with us today before the Lord our God, as well as with him who is not here with us today”
Our Oath with God, is our Faith & belief in the One True God. In just these 2 verses, God is trying to let us know how important our friends & family are, especially those ‘not-saved’. After all in ‘The End Times’ who would not want their loved ones with them. You don’t want them to be like the ‘rich man’, looking up at you asking for a droplet of water as they are in torment, do you?
Let me share with you, part of Noah's story, that God saw that he was a righteous man .. Genesis 6:9/10 “This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. 10 And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth”. It was because of Noah’s close walk with God that so did his family, or take Abraham taught his family the importance of walking God .. Genesis17: 9 “And God said to Abraham: As for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations” .. It’s why God wants us to tell our friends & family about how empty our lives would be without Him in it ..
Acts 2:39 “For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”
. . . What we are alluded to here from God is is that His promises also for our Children, and so many more generations. . friends .. family & also work colleagues .. chance encounters of whom you don’t need to have a life time with to make an impression. You just need 5 Min's and Gods shinning light through you. Part of my Testimony is down to a ‘chance encounter’, at a bus stop in Torquay, on my way to work as a nurse at Torbay Hospital. A lady collapsed, me and another lady, from the Church I would end up attending, we looked after this poor lady till an ambulance arrived.
After they had taken the lady to hospital, we chatted away freely. After going to her Church, we became good friends, it was at this Church that I gave my heart & life to the Lord on the Sunday evening of May 1st 1998, which I was to find out later was the birthday of Betty my wonderful and amazing selfless birthday. . . You see you never know when you may influence, with a Chance encounter. I wonder how many how many you could meet today? Sometimes after I went to our local shop to pick up a few bits I look for a parent with a young child, then say if they would return the trolley they can keep the pound, they say for God to bless them.
Psalms 132:12 “If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I shall teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore.”
These are ‘Those to Come’. The more souls we can save means, not only less for the fiery pit, but also our Heavenly Father will be happy. We are not only saving those we love, then there is their family and friends, then theirs and theirs and so on. It has been said that behind everyone there is at least 200 people they know. So, if just we saved those, you could be responsible for saving around 40,000. If everyone did this you could save your Town ~ City ~ University ~ Village in a matter of days. Imagine what this could do for the World today?
Jeremiah 31:31&344 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah .. 34 No more shall every man teach his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
What God is trying to tell us here is . . “When Christ comes back for the second time, all the World will be told at the same time, no matter where in the World you live or what ever the time zone. From Torquay to Timbuktu, from China too Argentina and everywhere in between. When here, everyone will bend the knee, those of us already saved, will be singing his Praises & Worshipping Him.
“Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord” .. This new Covenant will be with us, who, with hearts open wide, will rejoice with is new Covenant, as we will be in His presence. There will NO class system ~ No racism ~ everyone will be equal. There will NO Churches of .. AOG ~Elim ~ COE/I ~ Brethren ~ Anglican ~ Methodist .. etc. Let me help that old penny that keeps getting stuck and wont drop, there will be no denomination. So next time you see somebody from another Church, offer your hand in Jesus Christ’s name in peace. As you will most likely run into them in Heaven. Remember these words of a song ..
Once home we’ll be far too busy praising & Worshipping to worry whom came from what denominational church. All that should matter is that they too gave their lives to Jesus, hence saved to. This is why we need to talk about Jesus as often as you can.
WAIT .. WAIT .. WAIT Before you think we are done, I want to tell you one more thing, which will surprise you. God never intended for us to go to Hell, instead it was meant only for fallen angels. But due to our own actions God had no option but to send us there too!
Once you are in Hell, you can’t change your mind, for it will be far too late. Let me show an exemplar from . . . Luke 16:19 “There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. 20 But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate” . . . Did you see how God has not named there rich man, he is not important, no matter much he was [monetarily] worth . . . V21 “ desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom” . . . he [the rich man] so frustrated and wondered what he could do to get help. The fact is because of his own actions, no one else's, so always think before you act. Because here there is no turning back or changing your mind. V24 “Then he cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame” . . . no sooner has the rich man arrived, he is torment. So will. YOU BE, if your saved, forever in torment or peace! Only you can decided, not me, not your parents, not your friends, and not even God, YOU and YOU alone can make this decision. V26 “And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us” . . . you see you can’t change your destination, once there. Even if you said to God after “look God I been a good person, surely that’s enough?” NO, you decided to snub God, so you pay for your actions. I shall leave you with one last verse John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me”

On ward to the prize before us
soon His beauty we’ll behold
soon the pearly gates will open
we shall tread the streets of Gold
When we all get to Heaven
what a glorious day that will be
when we all see Jesus
We’ll sing and shout for Victory

I need to ask, have you prayed the sinners prayer yet ??
You really don’t want to leave behind those to come ..
