We are told to seek first the Kingdom of God. In this realm is where we find His reign. Remember, our heart is where our treasure is. The riches are where Christ is and that is in us (Colossians 1:26-27). When we seek His Kingdom first, everything will be added to us (Matthew 6:21-34)..
Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians 4-5 speaks of the same coming to gather the saints. And in the New Testament there is only one coming. That one coming is the same judgment and gathering in both Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians 4-5. And I will show why. Most believe we literally will be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. But I will show Why we will not float up into the sky to meet the Lord. Most think that we are going to rise up in the "AIR" But if we let the Bible tell us what "AIR" is we will have a different outcome. So the question is, is it our atmosphere or the air we breathe.
We need to know what and where is "My Father's house". Some claim that "My Father's house" refers to heaven but what do the scriptures say? The phrase "My Father's house" is in the New Testament twice (John 2:16; 14:2).
