The last act of Christ’s first coming was the ascension. The first act of Christ’s second coming is his descension for the Church of the Body, the born-again believers.
1 Corinthians 13 – the last verse of this fantastic chapter reads as follows. After all that’s said about charity – charity is the love of God in the renewed mind in manifestation – after everything is said in chapter 13, God closes with the thirteenth verse: “And now abideth faith, hope, charity [love], these three; but the greatest of these is charity [is the love of God in the renewed mind in the Church among the people, the Body].”
“To believe” is a verb. A verb connotes action, and years and years ago I always heard and I still hear it today at times, “Well, I hope this can happen.” They just don’t understand these words. To believe is available according to the promises of the Word. Believe for what is available now according to the Word. Hope is believing for what is available in the future according to the Word. Hope is never available now. Hope is always future. And it’s love that activates both our believing for the present and hope for the future.
In the Gospel of John, chapter 8 – you see, there were believers who looked forward to the first coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Most of the people living at that time were not believers, and they were not looking forward to the coming; but in John, chapter 8, verse 56: “Your father Abraham [Did what?] rejoiced to see my day. . . .” Jesus Christ said, “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day.” Abraham was a believer. He looked forward to the day of the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ – first coming. He “rejoiced to see my day”; and he saw it. He didn’t live to see it, but he saw it according to the revelation that had been given of the first coming. He saw it and he was what? Glad. He was glad.
