The End Times According to the Gospel of John
1. But Jesus, Where did you come from? I came from Heaven to make a Path to Eternal Life.
“But if you don’t believe me when I tell you about earthly things, how can you possibly believe if I tell you about heavenly things? No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven. And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life.” John 3:12-15 NLT
2. But Jesus, Why are you Leaving? Because I’m a Mansion Builder.
“Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room (mansions) in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. And you know the way to where I am going.” John 14:1-4 NLT
3. But Jesus, What about us? Don’t’ Worry...I’m Going to Send Help.
“But now I am going away to the one who sent me, and not one of you is asking where I am going. Instead, you grieve because of what I’ve told you. But in fact, it is best for you that I go away, because if I don’t, the Advocate won’t come. If I do go away, then I will send him to you. John 16:5-7 NLT
4. But Jesus, When are you Coming Back? I’m Coming Back Soon.
“In a little while you won’t see me anymore. But a little while after that, you will see me again.” Some of the disciples asked each other, “What does he mean when he says, ‘In a little while you won’t see me, but then you will see me,’ and ‘I am going to the Father’? And what does he mean by ‘a little while’? We don’t understand.” Jesus realized they wanted to ask him about it, so he said, “Are you asking yourselves what I meant? I said in a little while you won’t see me, but a little while after that you will see me again. I tell you the truth, you will weep and mourn over what is going to happen to me, but the world will rejoice. You will grieve, but your grief will suddenly turn to wonderful joy. It will be like a woman suffering the pains of labor. When her child is born, her anguish gives way to joy because she has brought a new baby into the world. So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again; then you will rejoice, and no one can rob you of that joy.” John 16:16-22 NLT
● Pray this Prayer: “Heavenly Father, I dedicate my life to you Jesus, trusting in your promise to return soon, as revealed in your Word.. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, guide my steps, and use me to advance Your Kingdom. May I live faithfully, reflecting Your love and glory until You come again. Amen.”
● Come back next Sunday, September 7 as we begin the New Message Series: Re-Wired. This series will show us how to align our thoughts with God’s truth. Fear, worry, shame, and discouragement all begin in the mind—but what we believe flows from how we think. God’s Word rewires and renews our minds, bringing clarity, peace, and purpose.
