1Ti 6:15-16 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. One glorious day Jesus Christ is going to be revealed to all the world. He is being revealed to all men now, but the masses of people choose not to believe in the God of the Scriptures. They fashion a god after their own imagination whether it be a god of religion, race or riches or any other such god (there be gods many)! Yet, in His longsuffering and love the God of scripture reveals Himself to all men trying to convince them by faith that He is God.
He reveals Himself to all men through the Light of Life - John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1:9-10 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
He reveals Himself to all men through saving grace - Tit 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
He reveals Himself to all men through the resurrection of Jesus Christ - Ac 17:30-31 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
All men have had the truth of God revealed to them, but now some recieve this truth but not all. How sad will be the day when Jesus Christ will be revealed for His final time to those who chose not to believe. The Bible describes it this way:
2Th 1:7-10 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
Do you believe the truth about the God of the Scriptures? Do you know Him as your personal Savior? God wants you to know Him, not through the god of religion but rather as the God of redemption. He sent His only Son to die for your sins. Believe and call upon the resurrected Christ and get ready, for He is coming!
