The apostle John ends the book of Revelation with several pointed reminders of Christ's return;
Behold,I am coming quickly!(22;7).
And behold,I am coming quickly,and My reward is with Me,to give to every one according to his work.(22;12).
Surely I am coming quickly.(22;20).
Friends,He is coming again,and He will do so quickly! Are you ready?John was,was,so he could write with gladness,And the Spirit and the bride say,Come!And let him who bears say,Come!(22;17).But he wasn't content to leave it at that.He knew some might be reading his book who weren't ready for the Lord's return.So to them he writes,And let him thirts come.And whoever desires,let him take the water of life freely (22;17).
Are you thirsty? Then come to Christ,so that you will be ready for Him when He comes.Do you desire to quench your thirst at the great fountain of God?Then come and take that water freely.Drink deeply of His cool,refreshing waters.Cast yourself wholly upon His grace,and ask Jesus to satisfy your soul.
Then you,too,will be ready to say with John,Even so,come,Lord Jesus!
