Book Description
Many books have been written concerning the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Theologians debate whether His return will occur pre, mid, or post tribulation, but is it as important to discern when He will return as it is to be ready when He does? New Testament scriptures ascribe Jesus as the Bridegroom and Church age believers as His bride. The bride is eagerly awaiting her Bridegroom to carry her away from this present age of evil, but God’s Word tells us this will not happen until the bride is made ready. The Bible teaches three characterizations of the true bride of Jesus Christ. The true bride has left the world behind to become a follower of Jesus. The true bride places God first before self and others. The true bride lives a holy life and waits expectantly for her Bridegroom’s return. Jesus taught perilous times would come, and apostacy (abandonment of faith) would precede His return. It is God’s will that all men come to a saving knowledge of His Son, but scripture tells us this will not happen. Only those who have persevered in faith and look to the completion of their salvation will escape the future events of the great tribulation. Come, journey with me into ancient history to examine the rituals of ancient Jewish marriage customs and their prophetic meaning to the Lord Jesus and His second coming. God has given us His Word so we not only know who He is, but know who we are.

Book Description
The Bride Made Ready is the New Covenant prospective for keeping the Feasts of the Lord, not by the letter of the law, but by God’s Holy Spirit. Keeping these feasts is more than acknowledging and receiving Jesus’ redemptive work on the cross for the salvation of our spirit. It penetrates our lives far more deeply. It is learning to yield to the refining and defining work of the Holy Spirit for the progressive salvation and maturation of our souls while yet here on earth. As we are transformed into His very image from glory to glory, we will become truly one with Him. Jesus is not returning for a toddler bride, but a radiant, holy, mature bride of Christ who lives and moves in His full stature and mindset. The reader will learn how to permit the work of the Holy Spirit upon us individually and corporately that the church may arise to shine forth God’s glory in character and in works before a lost and dying world. She will express and release His love locally and globally. Christ’s beloved and obedient bride who has been made ready will graciously reach out in glory and expand the family of God throughout the earth by the radiant light of Christ within her before He takes her away to celebrate the supper of the Lamb together.

Book Description
Jesus promised He would come again to take us to be with Him to a place He has prepared for us, and scripture states it is an incredible place and life He has for us, beyond our comprehension. We can begin to experience this abundant life and walk in these Kingdom blessings here and now. As we allow the Holy Spirit to work in us, to lead, convict, teach and empower us to live for Christ we will be prepared for His coming. The real question is not when is He coming, but who is He coming for and will I be among those He receives to Himself? Concerning these end times and His coming, Jesus said though we wouldnt know the exact hour or day, but that we are to be looking for the signs of His coming to watch, pray and be ready for Him to come at any moment. As we watch, pray, and then do whatever He asks us to do, we will be ready for His coming or our going to be with Him, whichever comes first. The Bride has made herself ready! He is coming to take a prepared people to a prepared place, so what does it mean to be ready? In light of the possible imminent return of Jesus, what manner of persons ought we to be/how would we want to be found by Him? What sort of Bride does Jesus desire/deserve and will He accept? Who is He soon coming for? A Passionate Bride not cold or lukewarm but deeply in love with and devoted to Him; one looking and longing for His coming, preparing for His arrival, and desiring only to spend every minute in His presence. It is the essence and key to everything we are and do for the Lord. Everything comes down to loving God and others.

Book Description
This is a cutting edge, challenging, and informative book about the bride of Christ preparing herself to meet her groom. Often christian leaders and church members have spent alot of time asking God to do something that He has commissioned us to do. The idea for the title came from the scripture Revelation 19:7. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour unto Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife has made herself ready. In a typical wedding the groom does not see the bride until it's time for the ceremony. The bride prepares herself to meet him at the altar. She fixes her hair, she puts on make up and perfume, then adorns herself with her wedding gown. Those three words, made herself ready, stood out in my heart and mind. This book will enlighten and stimulate thought. It will deal with docterine, personal responsibilty, accountability, church discipline, and challenge us on things we have believed and been taught all our lives. Jesus finished His work on earth and is now interceding for us. Before He returned to heaven, He told His disciples He would build a church that the gates of hell would not prevail against. Then He told them "Behold, I give you the keys". Let's work with the Lord and build Him that church.
