Series: Maintaining this Hope

As I told you a few weeks ago there are several words associated with the arrivals of Jesus and I told you that there were several arrivals the scriptures speak of - His birth being the first.

I also told you that each “appearing” of Jesus coincides with an "AGE" in the church.

WE ALWAYS FOLLOW OUR LORD IN ALL THINGS.

Jesus’ first appearing was associated with His suffering and so the first age of the church is one of suffering as well.

Now we ended our last teaching by beginning to read in 1Cor. 15 about the rapture and the resurrection of the body and we will get back to that in our next teaching, but in reviewing that message I thought it wise to back up a little and fill in some gaps.

The resurrection of the body is taught in connection with suffering which agrees with the 1st appearing of Christ Jesus. The Redemption of the body coincides with our glorification which happens at His return.

We will be glorified together WITH HIM!
