Hi my friends...

..on Hebrews 9:23-28

CHRIST'S sacrifice, though offered upon earth, was by HIMSELF carried up into heaven, and is there presented in a way (THE WAY) of daily intercession-for HE appears in the presence of GOD for us. HE has gone to heaven not only to enjoy HIS first estate and receive the honor due HIM, but to appear in the presence of GOD for us, to present our persons and our performances, to answer and rebuke our adversary and accuser, to secure our interests...an indemnity if you will...acting as such because our sins with the sacrifices of bulls and rams were always inexpiable(I'm studying "i" words today) to the full extent or opposite that for which CHRIST, the TRUE oblation by virtue of the hypostatical union...the blood of GOD...carried our burden in such infinite value.

Working into this fact that we all must die once, or at least undergo a change equivalent to death. It is an awful thing to die we must confess..to have the vital knot loosed or cut asunder, all relations dropped at once, an end if you will to our probation  and preparation state..and we should get ready for it. For it is an indomitable (told you about the"i"s) fact the we are going to enter another world once leaving this. You all know this...deep inside where secular reason can't match GOD'S innateness that HE'S given us all.

It is appointed to men that after death they shall all come to judgment. It is the distinguishing character of true believers that they are looking for CHRIST...THE CAPTAIN of my soul..me dougie boy....we look to HIM in every duty, in every ordinance, in every providence now not later when we think we have time. We expect HIS SECOND COMING and are(I hope and pray) preparing for it...the parable of the ten virgins are good examples. And though it will be sudden destruction to the rest of the world, who scoff at the report of it...(i.e. this is one) it will be eternal salvation to those who look for it.

I love you all in ways from which my prayers are ordered. I know most I write to are saved..those who are not I implore with as much is in me in this reaching out to seek JESUS while HE may be found...PSALM 27...
