1 Thessalonians 4:
17
KJV
17 Then we which
are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to
meet the Lord in the air...
Late yesterday afternoon I came back
from a walk with Debbie, and turned on the TV.
One of the channels I turned to had
an air race going on.
Airplanes were flying fast and low
around pylons, and every time I see an airplane in the sky, I think of my
Dad.
My Dad was a great aviator, but I
never took any interest in airplanes of any kind, but one day perhaps I’m going
to fly.
I’ve attached an article probably
written in the early 1950’s about an ice rescue my Dad was a part of with his
airplane.
He actually landed his airplane on
the ice to rescue some crazy ice fisherman.
I’m sure these fisherman breathed a
sigh of relief when they got rescued.
Seriously though, my Dad never talked
very much about this day. It was just routine for him.
The event revealed in this text of
scripture is going to be the rescue of all rescues.
Our Heavenly Father is going to
rescue all sorts of people, and that event could happen as soon as
today.
Are you ready to meet the Lord in the
air? Those who are, will most certainly breathe a sigh of
relief.
You’d be surprised at how many people
who haven’t a clue of what I’m even taking about. It’s called the
rapture.
Frankly, this is a flight that you
don’t want to miss for anything in the world...
