LORD, SAVE Me

Romans 10:8-13

BUT, WHAT DOES IT SAY (The Holy Bible, And Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ)?

“THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN Your Mouth AND IN Your Heart” (THAT IS, THE WORD OF FAITH, Which We PREACH): That IF YOU, CONFESS WITH Your Mouth, THE LORD JESUS, AND BELIEVE IN Your Heart, That GOD (GOD Almighty) HAS RAISED HIM (ALIVE), From The Dead (Jesus’ Crucifixion, Resurrection, And Subsequent, Ascension), YOU (Believers) WILL BE SAVED (FROM The Lake Of Fire, The Second Death, EVERLASTING CONDEMNATION)!

FOR WITH The Heart, One BELIEVES, UNTO Righteousness, AND WITH The Mouth, CONFESSION (OF THIS FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), IS MADE, UNTO Salvation!

FOR THE SCRIPTURE SAYS (The Holy Bible, And Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), “Whoever (Believers) BELIEVES, ON HIM (Jesus Christ), Will NOT Be Put TO Shame!”

FOR There IS NO Distinction (NO Differentiation), BETWEEN Jew (Jewish Believers) AND Greek (Non-Jewish Believers); FOR THE SAME LORD (Jesus Christ), Over All (Mankind), IS RICH TO ALL (Believers), WHO CALL UPON HIM (Jesus Christ)!

FOR “Whoever CALLS ON The Name Of THE LORD (Jesus Christ), SHALL BE SAVED (AND HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE, IN GOD Almighty’s Immediate Presence, WITH Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels, AND All The Rest Of The Children Of GOD Almighty, FOR ETERNITY, FOREVER)!”

Matthew 14:25-33

NOW, IN The Fourth Watch Of The Night, Jesus Went TO Them (Jesus’ Disciples), WALKING ON THE SEA! And WHEN The Disciples SAW HIM (Jesus), Walking ON The Sea, They Were Troubled, Saying, “IT IS A Ghost!” And They (Jesus’ Disciples) Cried Out, For Fear! BUT, Immediately, Jesus Spoke TO Them, Saying, “BE OF GOOD CHEER! IT IS I; DO NOT BE AFRAID!”

And Peter Answered HIM (Jesus), And Said, “LORD, IF IT IS YOU, COMMAND Me, TO COME TO YOU, ON The Water!” SO, HE (Jesus) Said, “COME!”

And When Peter Had Come Down, Out Of The Boat, He (Peter) WALKED ON THE WATER, To Go To Jesus! BUT, When He (Peter) SAW, That The Wind WAS Boisterous, He (Peter) WAS Afraid; And Beginning TO Sink, He (Peter) Cried Out, Saying, “LORD, SAVE Me!”

And Immediately, Jesus Stretched Out HIS Hand, And CAUGHT Him, And Said TO Him (Peter), “O YOU OF LITTLE FAITH, WHY DID YOU DOUBT?”

And When They (Jesus And Peter) GOT INTO The Boat, The Wind CEASED! THEN, Those (Jesus’ Disciples) Who Were IN The Boat, CAME AND WORSHIPED HIM (Jesus), Saying, “TRULY, YOU (Jesus) ARE THE SON OF GOD (GOD Almighty)!”

Fellow Believers, Let’s Stop HERE, For A Moment.

Let’s Look At Five Important Points:

1 Jesus Was Asked, By Peter, To Command Him, TO COME!

2. Jesus’ Answer, To Peter, “COME!”

3 Jesus Was Asked, By Peter, “LORD, SAVE Me!”

4 Jesus Immediately Stretched Out HIS HAND!

5 Jesus “CAUGHT” Peter, AND SAVED Him!

Now, Let’s Move On . . .

1 Thessalonians 4:15-16a

For THIS We (Believers) Say To YOU (Fellow Believers), BY THE WORD OF THE LORD (Jesus Christ); That We (Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers), Who ARE Alive AND Remain, UNTIL THE COMING OF THE LORD (Jesus Christ, AT The Being Caught Up Together), Will By NO Means, PRECEDE Those (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers), Who ARE Asleep (i.e. Died A Physical Death Of The Natural Body)!

FOR THE LORD (Jesus Christ), Himself, WILL DESCEND, FROM Heaven, WITH A SHOUT, WITH THE VOICE OF AN ARCHANGEL, AND WITH THE TRUMPET OF GOD (GOD Almighty)!

Folks, Let’s Stop HERE, For A Moment.

Let’s Look, At Four More Important Points:

1 Jesus Christ WILL DESCEND, FROM Heaven.

2 WITH A Shout.

3 WITH The Voice Of An Archangel.

4 WITH The Trumpet Of GOD Almighty.

[Note: Whether OR NOT, The Shout, IS The Voice Of An Archangel, I Can NOT Say.]

BUT, Let’s Move On . . .

1 Thessalonians 4:16b-17

AND The Dead IN Christ (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers), WILL RISE (ALIVE), FIRST (IN Their Spiritual Bodies)! THEN, We (Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers), Who ARE Alive AND Remain, SHALL BE (Instantaneously, Supernaturally CHANGED, INTO Our Spiritual Bodies, AND THEN) CAUGHT UP, TOGETHER, WITH Them (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers), IN THE CLOUDS, TO MEET THE LORD (Jesus Christ), IN THE AIR (Far ABOVE The Earth)!

AND THUS, We (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers), SHALL ALWAYS BE (FOR ETERNITY, FOREVER), WITH THE LORD (Jesus Christ)!

O.K., Let’s Stop HERE, For A Moment.

Let’s Look, CLOSELY, At Four More Important Points:

1 The Dead IN Christ (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers), WILL RISE, ALIVE, FIRST; An Instantaneous, Supernatural CHANGE, INTO Their Spiritual Bodies, By The Hand Of GOD Almighty!

2 Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers, WILL BE Instantaneously, Supernaturally CHANGED, INTO Their Spiritual Bodies, By The Hand Of GOD Almighty!

3 Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers, WILL BE “CAUGHT UP TOGETHER” (IN Their Spiritual Bodies), IN THE CLOUDS!

4 Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers, WILL MEET THE LORD, Jesus Christ (IN Their Spiritual Bodies), IN THE AIR, AND BE TAKEN, INTO Heaven, By Jesus Christ, Himself!

So, What IS THIS Spiritual Body, YOU Ask?

1 Corinthians 15:42-44, 49

So Also, IS The Resurrection Of The Dead (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers)! THE BODY IS SOWN, IN Corruption (The Natural Body), IT IS RAISED, IN INCORRUPTION (The Spiritual Body)! IT IS SOWN, IN Dishonor (The Natural Body), IT IS RAISED, IN GLORY (The Spiritual Body)! IT IS SOWN, IN Weakness (The Natural Body), IT IS RAISED, IN POWER (The Spiritual Body)! IT IS SOWN, A Natural Body, IT IS RAISED, A SPIRITUAL BODY! THERE IS A Natural Body, AND THERE IS, A SPIRITUAL BODY!

And As We (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers) Have Borne The Image, Of The MAN Of Dust (The Natural Body); We (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers) SHALL Also, BEAR THE IMAGE, Of The Heavenly MAN (Jesus Christ, The Spiritual Body)!

1 Corinthians 15:50-53

NOW, THIS I SAY, Brethren (Fellow Believers), That Flesh And Blood (The Natural Body) CAN NOT, INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD (GOD Almighty); NOR Does Corruption (The Natural Body), INHERIT INCORRUPTION (The Kingdom OF GOD Almighty)!

BEHOLD, I TELL YOU (Fellow Believers), A MYSTERY (Something Once KNOWN, But Now, Forgotten):

We (Pre-Tribulation Believers) Shall NOT All Sleep (i.e. Die A Physical Death Of The Natural Body); BUT WE SHALL ALL (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers), BE CHANGED (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE); IN A Moment, IN The Twinkling Of An Eye (One Millisecond), AT THE LAST TRUMPET (The Trumpet Of GOD Almighty)!

FOR THE TRUMPET (The Trumpet Of GOD Almighty) WILL SOUND; AND The Dead (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers) WILL BE RAISED, INCORRUPTIBLE (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE, INTO Their Spiritual Bodies); AND We (Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers) SHALL BE CHANGED (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE, INTO Our Spiritual Bodies)!

FOR THIS Corruptible (The Natural Body), MUST PUT ON, INCORRUPTION (The Spiritual Body); AND THIS Mortal (The Natural Body), MUST PUT ON, IMMORTALITY (The Spiritual Body)!

So, How Do We (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers AND Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers) INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD Almighty, YOU Ask?

1 The Trumpet Will Sound.

2 Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers, WILL BE RAISED (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE), ALIVE, IN Their Spiritual Bodies.

3 Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers, WILL BE CHANGED (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE), INTO Their Spiritual Bodies.

Well Now, Where Have We Read THIS Before? I KNOW, IN 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 (See Above)!

Jesus Christ GIVES Us (Believers), HIS PERSONAL GUARANTEE:

Revelation 4:1

After These Things, I (John) Looked, And Behold, A Door STANDING Open, IN Heaven!

AND THE FIRST VOICE (Jesus’ Voice), Which I (John) Heard, WAS Like A Trumpet, Speaking WITH Me, Saying, “COME UP HERE (INTO Heaven), AND I (Jesus) WILL SHOW YOU THINGS (The Seven Year Tribulation), WHICH MUST TAKE PLACE, AFTER THIS (AFTER The Being Caught Up Together)!”

Revelation 3:10-11a

“Because YOU (Pre-Tribulation Believers), Have KEPT My Command (Jesus’ Command), TO Persevere, I (Jesus) Also, WILL KEEP YOU (THROUGH The Being Caught Up Together), FROM The Hour Of Trial (The Seven Year Tribulation), Which Shall COME UPON The Whole World (Satan’s World), TO TEST Those (FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, AND Unbelievers), Who Dwell ON The Earth! BEHOLD, I AM COMING, QUICKLY!”

Finally, Let’s Look At The Significance Of Jesus And Peter, ON The Water:

1 Jesus Asks Us (Mankind), “TO COME TO HIM.”

2 We (Believers) Realize, ONLY JESUS CHRIST, Can SAVE Us.

3 We (Believers) Ask Jesus, “LORD, SAVE Me!”

4 Jesus Immediately Stretches Out HIS HAND, TO Us!

5 Jesus CATCHES Us, AND SAVES Us!

And YOU Thought, It Was Simply, Jesus Saving Peter, From Physically Drowning, Huh! AMEN!
