For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
—1 Thessalonians 4:14 KJV

Note: There are many little nuggets here in this one verse. Now many have taught fear of having to be qualified for the Rapture, and that if a believer has committed some sin, when Christ returns, they would be disqualified. First off, there is the absolute simplicity of Jesus Christ here, the gospel of salvation—if we ‘believe’ in Christ’s death, burial and resurrection. Paul says if we are believers, we are going up!! Secondly, this verse also disproves “soul sleep”. These are the dead saints who are in Christ, but they are already “with him” in Heaven before He comes back. The bodies of saints go to “sleep” but the soul and spirit is very much alive—read all of Luke 16:19-31. Lastly, this verse of scripture in the fourth chapter of Thessalonians gives, clearly cut and dry, evidence of the purpose of this coming of Jesus Christ—not for war, judgment of nations, or to set up His kingdom yet, but for the glorification of His body.

Some food for thought: if John wrote Revelations earlier than he wrote his Gospel, as many believe, then he had already seen Jesus in His Heavenly setting (Rev 4 & 5); this would have surely made a significant impact on how he portrayed Christ's Divinity in his Gospel account.

His Creation was made by His commands, and it obeys His commands. This same Creator is also our Savior, and He is always near us. And you can communicate with Him in prayer.

[Mark Leaming @markileaming]

This beautiful verse is proof we need a Savior as none of us can fulfill this at near 100%. Fortunately, we do have that salvation in Jesus as He can forgive us from all of our sins, past, present, and future. His grace and mercy, if we accept, allows us to meet God’s standard.

@MLB you are anti-Christian? And anti-Judaism? Sounds like it.

One thing learned, modern New York culture and modern basketball culture are a dangerous, unhinged, and totally unhealthy combination.

God is Love!

[Mark Leaming @markileaming]

Lesson from friend of mine named Joel: 1 John 4:8 says God is Love. So in this passage, switch the word love with God: “God is patient, God is kind, God does not envy,…”. You can learn more about Who God is with this strategy. Thanks, Friend!

The late Billy Graham’s goal when his team started Christianity Today: “We should avoid extremes, both to the left and right. We should discuss all issues objectively and not from a biased viewpoint.” This could be the media line of the times. Just about all forms today fail.

Church was cancelled due to the building being flooded after last night’s storm; message was given online and what was spectacular is it was continuation of sermons on Joshua and time for chapter 3: 1-5: a story of God overcoming the flooded Jordan to lead the people home.

Pray with me
June 14, 2026

Father,

Your Kingdom is everlasting, Your throne is unshakable, and Your purposes cannot fail. Open my eyes to see beyond the temporary things of this world and to live for what is eternal.

Teach me to seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness. Let my heart be captivated not by the kingdoms of men, but by the reign of Christ. Where there is pride in me, establish humility. Where there is selfishness, establish surrender. Where there is fear, establish faith.

May Your Kingdom come in my thoughts, my words, my home, and my life. Make me an ambassador of Your grace, a servant of Your truth, and a witness to Your glory.

Let my life bear the evidence that I have been with the King!

King Jesus, rule over every corner of my heart. Let Your will be done in me as it is in heaven. And may my life become a reflection of the coming Kingdom where righteousness, peace, and joy abound forever.

For Yours is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever.

Amen

It’s ripe and gold! Wheat harvest kicked off in southwest Missouri this past week. The rolling amber waves of grain! Praying the farmers have a good crop.

There is only one name under Heaven by which we can be saved. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life for all eternity.

No one comes to the Father except through him.

Ask Jesus into your life while you still have the chance. If you die before doing that, it seems it’ll be too late. Don’t gamble with eternity.
