I wonder what Jesus Christ is doing right now. The last time we heard about him was when he told his Apostles about what he will do after he will be crucified and ascended up to heaven.
Jn 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Jn 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Jn 14:4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
I calculated the time he made that promise up to this time and I realized that its been too long to prepare that's why he is still not coming. Thus, my question is, Is there any other thing that Jesus is doing aside from preparing a place for the Saints?
2 Pet 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Let us remember that God wants all men to be saved. What is slow then is not God but we are, especially those who are not willing to repent and those who do not believe. This is precisely what Jesus is doing. To go in between and intercede between God and men.
1 Tim 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1 Tim 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
If it is possible for a man like Apostle Paul, in his time, to mediate even without physical presence, more so with our Lord Jesus Christ.
In fact, God is rising up early speaking unto us everyday of our life but many of us don't listen.1 Cor 5:3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
1 Cor 5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
1 Cor 5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
Jer 7:13 And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;
Mt 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Zech 8:20 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
Zech 8:21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also.
Rev 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
