INHERITANCE XXVI
Matt 24:43-44
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
He instructs us to be ready.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. KJV
We do not know the exact hour the rapture will occur.
They do not know the exact hour the second coming will occur.
We, if we are watching will know the time is near.
We know because we have watched and learned the signs.
We know because we are watching and recognize the signs.
They know because they have watched and learned the signs.
They know because they will be watching and recognize the signs.
Again the questions.
Do you know the signs?
Will you be overtaken?
The Lord ask a question.
The question is Who then is a faithful and wise servant?
The Lord some in charge of His household,
It was the servant that was placed in charge job to make sure each had food.
Matt 24:45-51
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
The TEV says;
Matt 24:45
"Who, then, is a faithful and wise servant? He is the one that his master has placed in charge of the other servants to give them their food at the proper time. TEV
The person that carries out his responsibilities as delegated to him by The Lord is blessed when the Lord comes and finds him doing what he is suppose to be doing.
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
That person is promoted.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
Then the Lord speaks about the person that has a bad, lazy attitude.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
The Lord calls this person evil.
They do not watch.
They do not know the signs of His coming.
They have no idea when the Lord is going to show up.
He thinks the Lord is not coming back for a long time.
The person mistreats those who were placed under his care.
He parties a lot.
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
Therefore when the Lord comes he is taken completely by surprise.
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
That person is not blessed at the Lords coming.
That person is certainly not promoted.
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. KJV
The RSV says;
Matt 24:51
and will punish him, and put him with the hypocrites; there men will weep and gnash their teeth. RSV
In post # 15 I made this statement.
Once we experience the event called the Rapture we begin to prepare for our next graduation.
We only have about seven years to prepare for the next graduation.
That is because the time of the tribulation period on earth is seven years.
It will probably be more than seven years because of what we will call transition time.
That would be the time between when the Rapture occurred and the actual seven years begin.
Then we began to cover those things concerning our adversary the devil.
Then we spent considerable time dealing with the tribulation period and events that happen to the Jews.
As a reminder.
Our main subject is our inheritance.
We read in Colossians that we have a reward.
The reward is the inheritance.
Col 3:24
Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. KJV
We learned that when we were born again (Rom 10:9) that we experienced a graduation.
We graduated from the power of darkness.
We were translated into the Kingdom of God.
Col 1:13
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: KJV
When Rapture occurs we will again graduate.
At that event we will receive our glorified bodies, enabling us to function in the physical realm, which we live in now.
As well as the spiritual realm where God lives.
Along with the new body comes all the new things and abilities we will have and be able to do in that new body.
We have about seven years to get ready for our next graduation.
That will be the 1,000 year reign of Christ.
We will take a look at that time.
Next time.
Matt 24:43-44
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
He instructs us to be ready.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. KJV
We do not know the exact hour the rapture will occur.
They do not know the exact hour the second coming will occur.
We, if we are watching will know the time is near.
We know because we have watched and learned the signs.
We know because we are watching and recognize the signs.
They know because they have watched and learned the signs.
They know because they will be watching and recognize the signs.
Again the questions.
Do you know the signs?
Will you be overtaken?
The Lord ask a question.
The question is Who then is a faithful and wise servant?
The Lord some in charge of His household,

They have no idea when the Lord is going to show up.
He thinks the Lord is not coming back for a long time.
The person mistreats those who were placed under his care.
He parties a lot.
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
Therefore when the Lord comes he is taken completely by surprise.
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
That person is not blessed at the Lords coming.
That person is certainly not promoted.
