When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound • And time shall be no more • And the morning breaks eternal, bright and fair • When the saved on earth shall gather • Over on the other shore • And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there. • When the roll is called up yonder (3x) • When the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

  3. On that bright and cloudless morning • When the dead in Christ shall rise • And the glory of His resurrection share • When His chosen ones shall gather • To their home beyond the skies • And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there. • When the roll is called up yonder (3x) • When the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

  5. When the roll is called up yonder, will you be there?

  6. 1 Thessalonians 4:13ff • 13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. • 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede) them which are asleep.

  7. 1 Thessalonians 4:16ff • 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: • 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

  8. WHAT IF: • Today were our last day on planet earth? • Either the Lord comes for us. . . • Or, we die sometime tomorrow? • How would you spend your last few hours on this earth? • Are you prepared to meet your God? • Are we a people who “know our times?” • I Chronicles 12:32

  43. 1 TIMOTHY 6:13-16 • 13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 16 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.

  44. 1 Timothy 4:13a-16a • …give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them….

  45. QUESTIONS….Cont’d • Are you neglecting the spiritual gift that is within you?

  49. THE PURPOSE OF THE CHURCH • 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. Eph.4:12-16

  50. ROMANS 13:11-14 • 11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. 13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. 14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
