“A BRIGHTER FUTURE”
“Connect to a brighter future, encourages me an information sheet called “Fibre is coming.” It is all about the best broadband available on the network.
We are hearing a lot about “a bright future,” especially at election times.
THE BIBLE TELLS US ABOUT THE FUTURE GLORY OF BELIEVERS:
- To be with the Lord Jesus Christ. – John 14:3
- To behold the face of the Lord Jesus Christ. – Psalm 17:15
- To behold the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ. – John 17:24
- To be glorified with the Lord Jesus Christ. – Romans 8:17,18
- To reign with the Lord Jesus Christ. – 2 Timothy 2:12
- To inherit all things. – Revelation 21:7
- To shine like stars. – Daniel 12:3
I want to encourage you to connect to the future glory of believers, the brightest future.
Sermon Outline – OT – NIV
“You said
Isaiah 14:13-15
Introduction:
in your heart,
- ‘I will ascend to heaven;
- I will raise my throne above the the stars of God;
- I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain.
- I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;
- I will make myself like the Most High.’
End:
But you are brought down to the grave, to the depth of the pit.”
