When Jesus Appears

1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
 
If you are abiding in Christ Jesus and He appears to you… where did He come from?
 
Is Jesus Christ In You?  Are You In Jesus Christ?  Are you abiding in His Word that is Spirit and is life?
 
If your answer is yes, then this message and revelation of Jesus Christ is For You.  Follow along these verses and ask and allow the Holy Spirit to unveil His Glory more!
 
Read along with me in 1 John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
 
…No darkness at all in God.  Period.  For understanding, He created All things for His purpose.  But IN HIM is NO Darkness.  Only LIGHT.
 
Now look in 1 John 1:7 But if we walk IN the light, as he is IN the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
 
This passage of scripture is pretty clear on meaning.  So let’s continue…
 
Now look at 1 John 2 … speaking of and declaring Jesus Christ as our propitiation of our sins.  Declaring Jesus Christ is The Righteous. 
 
Then in 1 John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
 
So there is a requirement and Action we need to keep…. keep His commandments which are the Father’s commandments.  Love God with all you are and one another.  This is what the old law was about, and also now the new order.
 
It’s always been the Father’s heart for His creation, LOVE and LIFE.  But… Righteousness was a must.  So the law of sin and death came in by the Father to reveal sin etc, and now the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus is come and replaced the old, and the Father’s own Righteous Son who now makes us Righteous when we receive Him as our Sacrifice of Righteousness unto the Father.  The Blood Covenant that satisfies all the Father’s requirements for Righteousness so we now can come boldly to His Throne of Grace in Peace and Righteousness.  Hallelujah!  Holy!
 
Let’s continue to read 1 John 2:5 But whoso keepeth his word; in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are IN him.

So if we love our heavenly Father then we will love one another as the Holy Spirit reveals to us, and will give that love in the form of resources needed as the Holy Spirit reveals necessary. 

 
Now look at 1 John 2:10 He that loveth his brother abideth IN the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
 
There are many scriptures to confirm that we are IN the Lord now and that He is IN us.  Let’s look at a couple more…
John 14:20-23
v20 At that day ye shall know that I am IN my Father, and ye IN me, and I IN you.
This alone says it all that we are in Christ Jesus, He is In us and has brought us back in to dwell IN our heavenly Father.
 
Verses 21 and 23 explain the commandments of our Lord so let’s look into this…
V21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
V23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him and make our abode with him. 
 
Wow.  So Abba Father and Jesus Christ together come and make their abode with YOU.  Jesus will manifest Himself to you.  And verse 20 is clearly stating that we are in the Father by Jesus being In us and Us In Him.
 
Here’s John 17 to confirm even more of Christ Jesus in us and having brought us in to the Father…
 
John 17:21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
v22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
v23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
v24 Father, I will that they also whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
v25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
v26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
 
Such love of the Son to the Father and such love of the Son for us and such love of the Father for us!
Thank you Abba Father!  We are abiding in Christ Jesus and the Father by His Holy Spirit in us!
 
Now let’s look again at the first passage of scripture 1 John 2:28…
1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
 
So At His Coming… where is He coming from?
 
Let’s look at another scripture…
Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Note… In Us.  Lord’s Glory in us being manifested through us as well as to us even from other members. 
 
1 John 4:15-17  
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
 
1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
 
Yes and Amen!   Our precious Lord is In you and is manifesting to you and through you to the world. 
All Glory and Honor to our Precious Lord Jesus and Abba Father! Thank you for your Holy Spirit! 

Amen.
