Moment 2: The Baby is Your Future

The new movie, “2012,” has freaked out a lot of moviegoers. Based on an ancient Mayan prophecy, it’s all about the world ending on December 21, 2012. Definitely not a very merry Christmas!

The only prediction, though, about how the world will end that you need to be thinking about comes from Jesus Christ: “I will come again” (John 14:3 ). “Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world…At that time, they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory” (Luke 21:26-27 ).

There’s three “Jesus-comings” that decide everything. First, He came that first Christmas to become one of us so He could ultimately die to pay for our sin. Second, He’s coming back—maybe soon—as the Judge of all the earth. He’ll write the last chapter. The other coming of Jesus is really up to you. Has He ever come into your heart to be your Savior from your sin? If not, you are fatally unprepared for your appointment with Him. But that could change today.
