OPEN BORDERS and UNLIMITED IMMIGRATION
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears
say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life. (Rev.
22)
After this I looked, and
there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every
nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before
the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in
their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to
the Lamb.” All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders
and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne
and worshiped God, saying:
“Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and
power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!” (Rev. 7)
“You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because
you were slain, and with your blood you
purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and
nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve
our God, and they will reign on the earth.” (Rev.5)
There is only ONE border
worth crossing. It is the spiritual border that separates the Kingdom of Jesus
Christ from the kingdoms of this world. It is the Border that separates the spiritually
dead from the spiritually living.
“Very truly I tell you, whoever
hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be
judged but HAS CROSSED OVER FROM DEATH
TO LIFE. (Jesus of Nazareth)
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All
authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore
go and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And
surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (The Risen Lord Jesus
Christ)
Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he
had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people.
He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and
give him glory, because the hour of
his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea
and the springs of water.” (Rev.14)
The biggest little
word in the Bible is "in", as in "in Christ"! HE is the
only safe place, country or nation in the universe.
God's
gracious love must be understood in light of God’s holy wrath and the Day of Eternal
Judgment- the Lake of Fire.
This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed
from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. He will punish those who
do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be
punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the
Lord and from the glory of his might on the day he comes to be glorified in his
holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. (2
Thessalonians)
Have
you “crossed the border” into the Kingdom of Christ? Are you safe?
