5. All men be afraid of this one! Heb.9:27

    Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,

6. Some how, it is nature, evil people have more reasons to be afraid of death!

    They usually, try all they can to run away from being caught!

7. Deep down in their souls, they must know, they will be rewarded for the evils!

B. 2nd step to have times of refreshing is be converted!

    if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. Jn.14:2

3. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself;

    that where I am, there ye may be also. John 14:3

4. Nowadays, in America, we know this well!

    In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 6:33

D. Conclusion: After his resurrection Jesus did these: John 20:19-23

1. On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked

    for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said: Peace be with you! John 20:19

2. After he said this, he showed them his hands and side.

    The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord. John 20:20

3. Again Jesus said: Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you. John 20:21

4. And with that he breathed on them and said: Receive the Holy Spirit. John 20:22

5. If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.
