Coming With His Coming
2 Peter 1:19
Second Coming Series 3 of 4 By Victor Cooper
4/18-20/13

Intro: The Bible clearly affirms in many passages that Jesus is coming again. What happens with that coming?

#3 The Coming Death

I. Death defined: Separation, not cessation.
A. The saved are separated to God.
B. The lost are separated from God
C. The saved receive a new body; one that can live in Heaven and Earth. 1 Cor. 15:49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

D. The lost will also receive a new body; one that can life eternally in Hell. Luke 16:24 And 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.

II. At His coming in the air, the believing dead will live.
1 Thes. 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the `dead in Christ shall first.

III. At the end of the Millennium the lost dead will be judged. Revelation 20:11,12 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. [12] And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

IV. The judged dead will be eternally separated from God.
A. This means with no chance of repentance or escape. Rev. 20:14-15 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. [15] And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

I hope the notes and the videos are a blessing to you. You can also access the videos on our Friendship Harmony Facebook page. May I ask you a favor? We are trying to get our video ministry off the ground so that it will reach many for Christ. Would you be willing to share it on your facebook page and ask your friends to do the same? It sure would be a big help, and I would appreciate it.

Thanks so much, and I’ll see you next Monday Morning With Pastor Vic!!!™

Memory Stick Found!!!

Good Wednesday Evening To You! Welcome to this mid-week edition of Monday Morning With Pastor Vic.

As you might recall, I was unable to post the notes from last Sunday Morning due to the fact that I has lost my memory stick. On my desk is a small plastic box that has three compartments. The top one is for memory sticks or USB flash drives as some call them. The bottom two contain miscellaneous papers. The USB I needed was accidentally filed in the middle space. I looked there the other night, but somehow I overlooked it. In any event, here are those notes. I hope they are a benefit to you.

2 Peter 1:19
Second Coming Series 2 of 4 By Victor Cooper
03/18-23; 4/13/13

Intro: The Bible clearly affirms in many passages that Jesus is coming again. What happens with that coming?

#2 The Coming Dawn

I. Trust the light of prophecy. 2 Peter 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
A. Trust God’s prophets until the new day dawns.
B. Here we walk by faith. 2 Cor 5:7
C. When the new day dawns, we shall see Him as He is.
1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

II. The dawn always brings a new day.
A. Quote: “Every day’s a new day.” Myron Boyd
B. Jesus is the Creator of new. Rev. 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
C. Only Christ can create; man can only invent,
therefore
only Christ can bring about a new dawn.

III. The new dawn erases the old sunset. Isaiah 65:17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor brought to mind.
A. With the dawning of a new day, all past hurts,
snubs, and sleights will be forgotten.
B. All past aches, pains, and illnesses will be
forgotten.
C. All past mean, hateful, spiteful, people will be
forgotten..
D. If any of those people above are in Heaven, you
will forget their bad attitude toward you, and
yours toward them.
