Are You Ready For A Brand New Start?
https://allpoetry.com/poem/16540823-Are-You-Ready-For-A-Brand-New-Start–by-Seah-Ray
During this time of global mankind’s bleakness
the Bible is being reevaluated as an authority
after all man’s errors have resulted
in horrid international ‘sheepishness’.

From the Genesis account
we know why wickedness is prevalent:

“That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned”. Rom. 5:12.

No where else have we found answers so relevant.

And Christians too know why Christ came:

“For God loved the world so much
that he gave
his only-begotten Son,

so that everyone exercising faith in him
might not be destroyed but have everlasting life.” John 3:16.

Offered to all who will it claim.

Therefore: “This means everlasting life,
their coming to know you, the only true God,

and the one whom you sent,
Jesus Christ.” John 17:3… But to his enemies

Past and Present:

“Know for a certainty
that God made him both Lord and Christ,

this Jesus whom you executed on a stake.” Acts 2:36.

And: “there is no salvation in anyone else,

for there is no other name under heaven
that has been given among men

by which we must get saved.” Acts 4:12.

Ancient who proclaimed:

“By myself I have sworn;
The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness,
And it will not return:

To me every knee will bend,
Every tongue will swear loyalty

And say,

‘Surely in Jehovah are true righteousness and strength.

All those enraged against him will come before him in shame.“
Isa. 45:23, 24.

Promised by God:

“And I will place him as firstborn,
The highest of the kings of the earth.” Ps. 89:27.

To reign along: “with him 144, 000
who have his name and the name of his Father
written on their foreheads.” Rev. 14:1.

Indicated this occurrence is just ahead…

Jesus, while on earth, to his disciples said:

“Moreover, just as it occurred in the days of Noah,
so it will be in the days of the Son of man:

they were eating, they were drinking,
men were marrying, women were being given in marriage

until that day when Noah entered into the ark,

and the Flood came
and destroyed them all.” Luke 17:26, 27… Except for eight people
all mankind pronounced–Dead…

So do we not see the same things occurring today?

Prophesied in Matt. 24 about: “the conclusion of the system of things” well on its way–

“food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another.”
And “then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred
since the world’s beginning until now,

no, nor will occur again.

In fact, unless those days were cut short,
no flesh would be saved”… Turn on the news and what do you see portrayed?

Still, John in vision saw: “a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes;

and there were palm branches in their hands.” In victory waved…

“These who are dressed in the white robes, who are they
and where did they come from?” … Their destination
to heaven and golden gates paved?

“And he said to me: “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation,

and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

That is why they are before the throne of God,

and they are rendering him sacred service day and night in his temple; and the One seated on the throne

will spread his tent
over them.” Rev. 7:9; 7:13-15.

Know that this is on earth…

“This is what Jehovah says:

“The heavens are my throne, and the earth is my footstool.” Isa. 66:1.  For: “As for the heavens, they belong to Jehovah,

But the earth
he has given to the sons of men“ Ps. 115:16. .. Especially, those
who He mercifully forgave:

“The righteous will possess the earth,
And they will live forever on it.” Ps. 37:29.

Under the rulership of “Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness,” “the firstborn from the dead,” and “the Ruler of the kings of the earth.” Rev. 1:5….

A situation global considered ‘grave’: “And I saw the wild beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the one seated on the horse and against his army.” Rev. 19:19.

“The 144, 000, who have been bought from the earth.” Rev. 14:3.

“And you made them to be a kingdom and priests
to our God,

and they are to rule as kings over the earth.” Rev. 5:10.

Why Christ said: “Have no fear, little flock,

for your Father has approved of giving you
the Kingdom.” Luke 12:32.

“The God of heaven
will set up a kingdom
that will never be destroyed.

And this kingdom
will not be passed on

to any other people.

It will crush
and put an end

to all these kingdoms,

and it alone
will stand forever”. Dan. 2:44.

More efficient than any of mankind’s present or former endeavors.

Those who were once questioned
before qualifying to reign with Christ

over nations composed
of these ones who even today claim to righteousness disdain

before being deposed:

“Do you not know that unrighteous people will not inherit God’s Kingdom?

Do not be misled.

Those who are sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, men  who submit to homosexual acts, men who practice homosexuality, thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers, and extortioners

will not inherit God’s Kingdom.

And yet that is what some of you were.

But you have been washed clean; you have been sanctified; you have been declared righteous in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God.” 1 Cor. 6:9-11.

Yes, these will ‘serve’ different
than today’s representatives
on earth…

They value ‘integrity’, ‘loyalty’, ‘love’, and ‘justice’–
qualities ‘priceless’ in worth

in imitation of the Christ,
who came to this land

in representation of his Father:

“Then as he was teaching in the temple, Jesus called out:

“You know me and you know where I am from. And I have not come of my own initiative, but the One who sent me is real, and you do not know him.

I know him, because I am a representative from him,

and that One sent me.” John 7:28, 29… To Be King!

Over the “New Heavens” and “New Earth”… Near! At Hand!

“For look!

I am creating new heavens
and a new earth;

And the former things
will not be called to mind,

Nor will they come up into the heart.

So exult
and be joyful forever

in what I am creating.” Isa. 65:17, 18.
