Dear Young Christian:
Some time ago, due to heavy fog in Chicago, an airliner was kept in a prolonged holding pattern. As it finally touched down, the flight attendant’s voice was heard to announce, “I’d like to welcome you to O’Hare International Airport. That’s what I would like to do! Unfortunately, due to inclement weather we have just landed in Indianapolis.”
For the one who has placed their faith in Jesus Christ, there will be no such announcements at the gate of heaven. When the Christian arrives at that final destination there will be no mistake or change in route for any reason. Here is how it will happen: “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 rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). Perhaps today!
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland
We would love to hear from you.
