He Wrote of Me

John 5:45-47
45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, on whom you have set your hope. 
46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote of me
47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?" 

On whom do you place your eternal hope? Is it self ? Is it a false God? Is it that you believe life ends with death? Christ is the Son of the Most High God and He has been given authority over life and death. God holds all things eternal, somethings we know by God's grace and then there are things which belong only to God and are not revealed to us. The Bible is a factual book, a historical book, a book backed by many ancient writings of old philosophers and it is for teaching, reproof, correction and training.

2 Tim.3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness


Old Testament Prophecy....
Deut.18:15 "The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers--it is to him you shall listen-- 
Deut.18:18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. And I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him.

New Testament....
Acts 3:22 Moses said, 'The Lord God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your brothers. You shall listen to him in whatever he tells you.
Acts 7:37  This is the Moses who said to the Israelite's, 'God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your brothers.'

Christ appears on the road to Emmaus....
Luke 24:27And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
Luke 24:18-26

18 Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?" 
19 And he said to them, "What things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, 
20 and how our chief priests and rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. 
21 But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened. 
22 Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning, 
23 and when they did not find his body, they came back saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive
24 Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see." 
25 And he said to them, "O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 
26 Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?"

He is coming again....
John 14:1-4

1 "Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me
2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 
4 And you know the way to where I am going."
Acts 1:11and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.
1Cor.11:26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
1 Thess.1:10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come
1 Thess.2:19 For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?
1 Thess.3:13 so that he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
1 Thess.5:23 Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Titus 2:13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ
James 5:7-9

7 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. 
8 You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand
9 Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door.
2 Pet.1:16 For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming
Rev.3:11 I am coming soon. Hold fast what you have, so that no one may seize your crown
Rev.22:12 "Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay everyone for what he has done.
Rev.22:20 He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!

Lord, impart Your glorious nature to us. Keep us from all sin and let us teach the world of the wonder that is You! Awaken the hearts of wicked man to Your salvation for Your glory! Amen
