Jesus Christ Foretold



Jesus Christ Foretold
Author: Mark V. Markov

Jesus Christ foretold
Of what is gonna happen.
What will become to be,
In the future.
Way after He died and rose again.
Way after grace, was given by Him.

He said
In Matthew
Chapter twenty five
Verses
Thirty one through forty six.

That when He comes back
He will
Seperate those who had works
From those that did not.
The thief was nailed to the cross,
He was not able to produce any works.

If those who had no works
Are gonna perish.
But those who have works
Will be saved.
This applies to those,
Who are able.
For this is what is gonna happen in the future.
Spoken and foretold
By Jesus Christ Himself.

That means
God expects works
From us
His ambassadors
His representatives
His faithful servants

Confirmed by Jesus Christ Himself again
To the church of Sardis
Written in the Book of Revelation
Chapter three
Verses one through five

To perfect works
Before God the Father
Otherwise those believers
Will lose their salvation
And perish

If those who had no works
Are gonna perish.
But those who have works
Will be saved.
This applies to those,
Who are able.
This is what is gonna happen in the future.
Spoken and foretold
By Jesus Christ Himself

That means
God expects works
From us
His ambassadors
His representatives
His faithful servants.

Jesus Christ foretold
Of what is gonna happen.
What will become to be,
In the future.
Way after He died and rose again.
Way after grace, was given by Him...



Luke 10:39-43 (ESV)

39 One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying,
“Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!”
40 But the other rebuked him, saying,
“Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds;
but this man has done nothing wrong.”
42 And he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
43 And he said to him,
“Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.”



Matthew 25:31-46 (ESV)


31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory,
and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne.
32 Before him will be gathered all the nations,
and he will separate people one from another
as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left.

34 Then the King will say to those on his right,
‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father,
inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

35 For I was hungry and you gave me food,
I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger
and you welcomed me,

36 I was naked and you clothed me,
I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’
37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying,
‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you,
or thirsty and give you drink?

38 And when did we see you a stranger
and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?

39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’

40 And the King will answer them,
‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,
you did it to me.’

41 “Then he will say to those on his left,
‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil
and his angels.

42 For I was hungry and you gave me no food,
I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,

43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me,
naked and you did not clothe me,
sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’

44 Then they also will answer, saying,
‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty
or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’

45 Then he will answer them, saying,
‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these,
you did not do it to me.’

46 And these will go away into eternal punishment,
but the righteous into eternal life.”





Revelation 3 (ESV)

To the Church in Sardis

1 “And to the angel of the church in Sardis write:
‘The words of him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars.

“‘I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive,
but you are dead.

2 Wake up, and strengthen what remains
and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete
in the sight of my God.

3 Remember, then, what you received and heard.
Keep it, and repent. If you will not wake up, I will come like a thief,
and you will not know at what hour I will come against you.

4 Yet you have still a few names in Sardis,
people who have not soiled their garments,
and they will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.

5 The one who conquers will be clothed thus in white garments,
and I will never blot his name out of the book of life.
I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels.



2 Corinthians 5:20 (ESV)

20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us.



Ephesians 6:20 (ESV)

for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.



Hebrews 10:24 (ESV)

24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,
