Expected End Image of Christ is the Goal of God our Father and Jesus [Yeshua] Christ our Lord. Plain and simple, yet hard to bear. All who are in Christ Jesus will be brought to an Expected End. That is an End of peace, faith, love, comfort, and everlasting joy in the presence of God. Yet, it is the beginning. Paul said in Acts “through much tribulation do we inherit the kingdom of God. Howbeit, the present sufferings are not to blot out our hope and victory in Christ.” Much has changed over the years in America. For believers the change is evident, if you are looking. We have accepted many common things done in the world to be classified as okay in the lives of Christians and the Church. When we read of the Harlot in Babylon 17, the fruits thereof can clearly seen in the nations of man. The same warnings given to Israel apply to America and the nations. For God will judge the nations. He will also judge both the righteous and the wicked.

Being brought to an expected end is a good goal. What is your expected end? I know what mine is. I want to be found faithful in those things the Lord has given me to do. By doing this, being found faithful, I believe the Lord will bring me to an expected end. A good expected end in our Father and our God, through Jesus Christ. Now one scripture here that is very relevant is this one which Jeremiah writes in chapter 29 and verse 11 saying: “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
Acts 14:22 | Expected End Image of Christ
Now this promise by the LORD, which refers to personal name of God, his covenant name says that this God has thoughts of peace and not of evil towards the house of Judah and of Israel. This particular word is given by Jeremiah to Judah regarding the captivity they would come into. The word of hope follows the words of judgment to this rebellious house. They listened to prophets, diviners, and dreamers who told the Jews that they would not be carried into captivity. These were those who cried peace, peace, to the people when they people should of been listening to the true prophet of God, Jeremiah and others who declared their sins and told them to repent. They did not repent however and were in fact, according to the Word of God and history carried into Babylon. Then after seventy years returned to the land. The promise given to this rebellious house, whose heart was far from the Lord, was true and prophetic. Yet, before they could claim it or even come to it, they first faced judgment and trial for their rebellion against their G-d.
For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed. For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith the LORD. For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Jer 28:8-11 | Expected End Image of Christ
The house of Judah and the rebuilding of the temple would occur. Here though, the promise of the LORD to bring them into an ‘expected end’ is one of hope. The one who sends judgment would now bring them to the rebuilding of their lives and faith in him. But the one thing they must understand and do, is obey. They are to seek, love, and follow the LORD with all their hearts. When the tribulation came as a result of their sins, it caused the people to draw near to the God of Israel. Many died in this judgment. Many carried captive, yet the remnant would return to fulfill the promise given to the people.
Further, the scripture says “I will bring you again into the place.” It is here in Jerusalem that the LORD would gather them from “all the nations” and “from all the places I have driven you”. This promise was fulfilled in the jews return from Babylon to the Jerusalem. This promise was also fulfilled in 1948 when more Jews returned to the land in Israel and became a nation. This will also be fulfilled again, along with others when the LORD brings Ephraim, Israel back into the land as well.
All of this has purpose and a lesson in it for us as believers in Jesus Christ. The church has always made it their doctrine, or favorite verse to say this which Jeremiah writes in chapter 29 and verse 11 saying: “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the L-RD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Although given to the Jews in Judah by Jeremiah, many churches and believers have adopted that verse as well. It is true, that many times we in the church take such verses and believe the promise without giving any credence to the why’s or the warning’s associated in it. In this case, the promise follows the ‘smelter’ or ‘fire’ upon Gods own people. His judgment upon them for being idolatrous, pagan, serving other Gods, carnal, lustful, serving mammon, and not doing nor following him with their whole heart. The whole understanding of this must be taken in the context of judgment.
Only then can you understand the promise of God that was given. In fact, the Lord does work in his peoples lives. This verse of promise would be important because in the judgment God would seem to have forsaken them, put evil upon them, and rejected them. Yet, God rejected the evil of his people and their doings. Many of whom would not repent. But God also laid out promises of return and blessings, if his people would repent and seek him. Only by going through the fire, being pushed into that captivity did Judah understand their ways. In their bondage they cried out, forsook their idolatry, and sought the LORD.
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
Isaiah 66:4; 2 Thess 2:11 | Expected End Image of Christ
Churches fill with people does not mean all know the Lord or follow Him. As believers we are to reject the mammon, carnal, pleasure seeking harlot and jezebel church and find the Lord G-d and his son Yeshua, Jesus Christ. It is easy to take the promise without the cost. The cost here for Judah was their punishment for the rebellion they pursued. But the reward for the repentance on their part was the verse that many quote. In short, G-d does not just punish because he likes to bring misery. He knows the “thoughts he thinks towards all his children, including the heathen and unbelievers.” When the world rejects his love he sends delusion. When they refuse to listen to him, he brings their own fears and delusions upon them. But it need not be so. Paul writes in 2 Thessalonians of this, the world will reject the “love of the truth” and the result is a G-d sent delusion to the world which will believe a lie and thus be damned for their rejection. Many have a hard time believing this, yet it is true. It is also true what our Lord Jesus Christ said of this, “ wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat, but narrow is the way which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Matt 7:13-14 | Expected End Image of Christ
Yet for all this, we know our God and Father sent his only begotten Son to die on the cross because he did love the world. He loved his Son, his Son loved him, both loved the lost of humanity. In this love we find the gospel of grace which has been forged into the blood covenant through the work on the cross by our Savior. In this we have the ties of eternal salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. It is this which makes our hope and the truth for which we struggle so important. It is also this very truth that brings the dark forces to battle us continually.
The evil principalities and powers work to bring forth from the pits of hell, lies, delusions, prophets, apostles, leaders, gods, and more to quench the fire of the eternal gospel of Jesus Christ. Yet in the midst of this onslaught of destruction, perdition, and hate, the Love of God shines forth in the inevitable truth revealing God will never forsake us. We worked to get through it, God promises to bring us through this; as it is written “to an expected end.” That end is the beginning for the Child of God. It is victory.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Jer 29:11 | Expected End Image of Christ
This expected end means to us that no matter what comes, i.e.; no level of darkness, hatred, chaos, death, separation, hurt, heartache, delusion, destruction, earthquakes, tsunamis, signs, wonders, or even the devil himself can separate us from the eternal truth locked in Jeremiah’s prophetic words the LORD gave him to speak. This eternal truth is bound in the Love of God and of his Son Jesus who died for us. It is bound in heaven by the Word of God, and carried out by the legions upon legions of angels who have Gods word emblazoned in them. This is the very word the martyrs shed their blood for and the very word that people like Nero worked to destroy. The final word, the “gates of hell shall not prevail” against the Lords ‘Called out Ones’, his anointed, the sons of God’. See Revelation 12:11 and also chapter 22.
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ro 8:35-39 | Expected End Image of Christ
It is these truths in Gods Word that we are to be guided and not by the daily news, troubles, bloodshed, violence, wickedness, blasphemy, and more. The ungodly and the wicked work to throw off the chains of the eternal God and in the process bring about damnable ways that send men, and women, to hell while leading our children into perdition. Yet in the midst of all this, the grace of God and his love reaches forth to those in darkness healing the hearts of those lost and bringing them unto himself through Christ Jesus.
Daily we hear of these finding the salvation and love of God in Christ Jesus. Even the wickedness or religious deception of our day cannot stop the Love of God and the saving strength of this God from delivering those who in true repentance come to him. The fact is, and one the devil hates is that nothing can stop God from saving to the uttermost them that come to him. He will in no wise cast out, those who do come. He will not quench their flame, nor reward evil for their true repentant heart. He is faithful, loving, and will again, “save to the uttermost”.
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory. And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
Heb 7:25; Matt 12:20-21 | Expected End Image of Christ
The final word on the matter which is this can be found in prophetic scripture and is conveyed in this phrase: “in his name shall the Gentiles trust!” These promises reveal both the Jew and the Gentile who has believed and followed our Lord, will be saved. The devil and all the legions of darkness hates this. The religious guru’s, the idolatrous, the wicked, and the rebellious all despise this. The world hates our God and his Son Yeshua, Jesus Christ. The world hates this savior of ours, whom will come, and will not tarry, for he is “Alpha and Omega” , the beginning and the end and everything in between. If the world hate him, know this, it will hate us. The devil will hate us. But in all this we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus. There is nothing they or the devil can do to stop it now. We have won, my friends, we have won. Therefore, continue in faith believing and do not stop. For we have won, thank G-d almighty, we have won.
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
Romans 8:37; 1st Jn 5:4-5, 5:19-20 | Expected End Image of Christ
This is therefore, our confidence, which is, in Jesus Christ. We are to believe and look to him and the Father to bring us to an expected end in Him. I know things are tough, and will get tougher. The threats of darkness, the enemy, the wickedness, and even religious foes like the jihadist who is looking for his own god to come are real. But we do not walk in fear, which brings torment, but in faith which brings peace and trust. It is faith in in our God and Father through Jesus Christ our Lord that will bring us through.
We may not know all the details, nor the exact time of his coming, but we can be assured he will not fail us. As Paul says “I know in whom I have believed and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I committed unto him against that day.” That day of judgment, that day of his appearing, and that day of his Kingdom which comes in righteousness will not tarry. It will arrive and sooner than you think. We can be sure that through Jesus Christ, we will be with him in His kingdom. We can know this. A deep personal trust in him to bring you, your family and all those he has sent your to this expected end. An expected end rooted, grounded, and firmly in the grip of Jesus Christ our Lord and in his Father, with whom we have a firm covenant. A covenant called, the ‘blood of the covenant”, through faith in his name.
For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
2nd Tim 1:12 | Expected End Image of Christ
From Psalm 91 a reminder, for we are not to walk in fear, nor be afraid! If we are doing as our Lord Jesus Christ says to “ keep my commandments”, and also in Revelation which says “keep the faith and testimony of Jesus”, therefore, let us not fear, but walk in confidence before our G-d and in our G-d and his Spirit.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
