The Revelations, the Lord has given to me by the Spirit, along with my teachings and comments are written in Blue. May we all have ears to hear.

Let’s keep these next 2 Scriptures in the back of our minds as we seek to understand the Words of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Zechariah 4:6 … This is the word of the LORD … saying, Not by might, nor by power, but BY MY SPIRIT, saith the LORD of hosts.

Now let’s take a look at the “Return of Christ Jesus” beginning with the Words He spoke, when He was here on earth, in the flesh, prior to going to the cross. He said in Luke 17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is REVEALED (Note:This Word REVEALED is a very important Word. Lets not forget about it). Now, moving on … Let’s look at the following …

Jesus Goes to the Father … 30 AD

John 16:4-15 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning (This is when Jesus started his ministry, being baptized in the river Jordan by John the Baptist), because I was with you. But NOW (three and ½ years later) I go my way (That is through the work on the cross; His death and burial of His flesh body … and … through Him being changed and raised in a Glorified Body) to him (the Father, the Almighty God and Creator of all things, who according to Christ Jesus, in John 4:24 …is a Spirit.) that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient (advantageous or profitable) for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he (the Comforter… the Holy Spirit) is come (that is to say His presence has entered into you, and/or should I say “is revealed unto you”), he will reprove (convict) the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: (1) Of sin, because they believe not on me (But yet they will see others, who do believe and serve, as living witnesses for Christ Jesus) (2) Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; (That is to say, there is only ONE RIGHTEOUS, and WORTHY of acceptance by, as well as sacrifice unto the Father, the ONE true Living God. After Christ Jesus, shed His precious Blood and laid down His Life of Righteousness on the cross, He then arose from the dead, receiving His Glorified Body and went on to God the Father, who is a Spirit. Neither those who knew him, back when He lived on earth in a flesh body, NOR WE WHO ARE ALIVE TODAY … will ever see Him in His flesh body again.) Remember this Scripture! John 14:19-20 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me NO MORE; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you

The Word Returns … The Coming of the Holy Spirit

John 6:63 … The WORDS that I speak unto you, they are SPIRIT, and they are LIFE. 

Acts 1:8 … ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is COME UPON YOU:

Acts 2:1-4 And when the day of Pentecost (Fifty days after Passover … Christ Jesus was the Passover Lamb, without blemish,on the cross) was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place (The Upper Room). And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled ALL the HOUSE where they were sitting. And there APPEARED unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon EACH OF THEM. And they were ALL filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as THE SPIRIT GAVE THEM UTTERANCE. 

He will only come in the Glory of the Father See what Christ Jesus said in Matthew 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; (Or should we say ‘through the use of’ His ‘messengers’ serving in ministry by His Spirit, such as Apostles, Prophets, Evangelist, Pastors, Teachers, Helps and Witnesses. That’s why we MUST worship Him in Spirit and in Truth) (See John 4:24 where Christ Jesus says…)  God is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth (and in John 14:17 where Christ Jesus says) … Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world (in a wide sense, meaning all of its’ inhabitants) cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he (Christ Jesus) dwelleth with you, and (After the work of the cross) shall be IN you Here again, Christ Jesus tells us, that He will COME and live IN the believer who loves and worships Him in Spirit and in Truth) (and in John 14:1 … that He may abide with you for ever) (3) Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. (Satan was judged and defeated, by Christ Jesus, at the cross. Good triumphed, over evil, in the Spirit. Satan, upon realizing his failure, knew he had but a short time on earth. He knew that he was, and today still is, a defeated foe. But we, who follow Christ Jesus, have Victory through Him always. Our Lord Jesus went on to say to his disciples back then) I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit (but) when he, the Spirit of truth (the Holy Spirit; the Comforter), is come (that is to say, when He has entered into your innermost being, and is REVEALED unto you), He (the Holy Spirit) will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall GLORIFY ME (Christ Jesus … because Christ Jesus will have come in the glory of the Father; the Holy Spirit of the Father. In John 17:20-23 Jesus said … Neither pray I for these alone (Disciples) but for them also, (This refers to whosoever will come to believe and trust in Christ Jesus throughout the generations … Even those of us who believe today) which shall believe on me (Christ Jesus) through their (The messengers) word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they, (from all generations, even us who believe today), also may be ONE in us: (the Father and Christ Jesus) that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the GLORY which thou gavest me I HAVE GIVEN THEM; that THEY MAY BE ONE, even as WE ARE ONE: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect (complete and mature) in one; and that the world may know that thou (you the Father) hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Note: Now, we should all understand that THE REVEALING the Son of Man IN US … is  THE COMING in the GLORY of the Father.

See Luke 17:30 again where Jesus said, Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is REVEALED: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine: (After rising from the tomb and before Jesus ascended upon high in a glorified body, he told the disciples … in Matthew 28:18-20  … All POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name (authority and character) of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world (age). Amen.   therefore said I, that he (the Holy Spirit) shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you. 

Acts 1:8 … ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is COME UPON YOU: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. (POWER to do what? … POWER to Spread the Gospel of Gods Kingdom throughout the earth. Remember in Matthew 6:10 when Jesus taught his disciples what to pray at the beginning of His ministry … ‘Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done IN earth, as it is in Heaven’ and in John 10:16 when Jesus taught them saying … And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold (of other generations even until the present and beyond): them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; (the Words of Christ Jesus, through His Messengers) and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. (Christ Jesus)

Before Jesus went to do the work on the cross, He answered Simon Peter’s question in John 13:36-38 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now (Jesus explained to Peter, that he couldn’t follow or go with Him to the cross, because Jesus knew that Peter didn’t have it in him to follow.); but thou shalt follow me afterwards (In other words Peter would receive Power to follow Christ Jesus after receiving the Holy Spirit. Peter didn’t receive that Power until 50 days after the cross, on the Day of Pentecost, in the Upper Room). Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake. Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice. (Jesus knew that Peter didn’t have it in him, but Jesus continued in John 14:1-4 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house (abode; family) are many mansions (dwelling places): if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare (provide) a place (opportunity, condition, room) for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; (The Holy Spirit will come to live within the innermost part of the believer; who, then, will have become a temple of the Holy Spirit … a dwelling place) that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. (After Jesus prepared a place for us through His work on the cross, his burial and resurrection, and by presenting Himself to the Heavenly Father, who gave Him the Kingdom and all power in Heaven and earth. He then appeared in a Glorified Body to His disciples and to over 500 witnesses. Christ Jesus ascended upon high, unto the right hand of God the Father and became King of kings and Lord of lords. He now rules and reigns over the Church established in the Upper Room by sending the Holy Spirit to fill them all who were assembled there. Then those who received Him into their hearts, were then able to “Follow Him” throughout their own lives and throughout all Eternity. And even today, that goes for whosoever will pick up their cross, deny themselves and follow Him. Because each follower of Christ Jesus receives a witness in their spirit, from His Holy Spirit LIVING WITHIN THEM, REVEALING to each individual obedient follower, where to go, and the way to get there) 

May all who read and study this message, be abundantly blessed in Christ Jesus always, and to His glory !!
