    Heb.9.28 "Advent" (2 of 2)

    "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven."(Mt.19.20-23) The Law of Moses did not make man perfect; neither did material riches. First Advent of Jesus was So Christ was as the Lamb of God, 'once offered to bear the sins of many' and his next Advent."shall be and it is very essential to read the wording here, "And unto them that look for him shall he appear" He shall be as a sign and in his glory so the writer to the Hebrews adds,"the second time without sin unto salvation." .

    Here in following verses notice the expression 'four winds of heaven and from corner to another, "And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory./And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other."(Mt.24.30-31)(Rev.1.7 "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him."

    Who are these elect? 144 tags them as set apart in heavenly places.. Mount Sion and sea of glass with mingled fire give them place of rest while we who are alive are dead to the world. "For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together." These eagles are the angels and our 'vile bodies' are the carcase.

    Without entering into the God's rest which is presented in the very outset, many sects teach observing Sabbath.

    " But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given./For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it."(Mt.19.11-12).
