Already Risen

Living Ones Who Rise to be Blessed!
Those Who Will Open Their Eyes to Eternity Seeing Their Loving Savior

Don’t be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned. John 5: 28-29

Im so grateful I live in this season of the cross.
For Jesus has already come and paid for my sins.
So when I pass from this life, I don’t have to wait in my grave, but I go directly to be with Jesus.

Jesus was speaking to those who had fallen away already in that life.
He has not been crucified for all people’s sins yet.
But when Jesus was raised from the tomb, those who were in their graves went and were raised too.

For Jesus told the man on the cross next to Him that He would be in paradise that day—the day that they died.

And He also told another story of the poor Lazarus.
That once He died, He was carried to Abraham’s side, straight to Heaven.

So we can know that we know that we know those of us who believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Messiah, will go to be with Jesus straight away.
And we will rise to live with Him, in paradise, where streets are made of gold and there is a feast full of fattened calves awaiting us with trees of life with which we will eat from by the stream of crystal-clear water with all our friends and family members that went on ahead of us in a fullness and a completeness of joy we have only had the tiniest of tastes of down here.
