My Response to God's Truth

My Response to God's Truth

Daniel 12:8-9. “I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, ‘My Lord, what will the outcome of all this be?’ He replied, ‘Go your way, Daniel, because the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end.’”

Daniel 12:1, “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people – everyone whose name is found written in the book–will be delivered.”

1. God's Truth: There IS a Book of Life

My Reponse: Is My Name Written in it?

 

Revelation 20:15, “If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.”

Daniel 12:2, “Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.”

2. God's Truth: There ARE Two Future Resurrections 

My Response: Which One will be Mine?

 

John 5:28-29, “A time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice and come out—those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.” 

Revelation 20:6, “Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them.”

Daniel 12:3, “Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.”

 

3. God's Truth: Real "Stars" are those who Shine for Jesus

My Response: Am I Leading Others to Christ?

 

Philippians 2:15-16, “Children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life.” 

 

4. God's Truth: An Explosion of Information will Characterize the Last Days 

My Response: Am I Recognizing the Signs?

Daniel 12:4, “But you, Daniel, close up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.” 

Matthew 24:33,44, “Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door...So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”

Daniel 12:10, “Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.”

Daniel 12:11, “From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up there will be 1,290 days.” 

Daniel 12:12, “Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.”

Daniel 12:13, “As for you, go your way till the end. You will rest, and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance.”

 

5. God's Truth: There is a Rest and a Reward for God's Children

My Response: Do I have a Personal Relationship with God?

 

Revelation 13:14, “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labor, for deeds will follow them.”

John 14:6 “In my Father’s house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.” 

Revelation 21:4, “And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes, there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying; and there shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
