SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

 

Everything you hold dear is going to be torn from your hands by death. Whether we like it or not, we are all part of the ultimate statistic: Ten out of ten die.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Hebrews 9:27 KJV

Death happens because we have sinned and violated the moral laws of God. The Ten commandments.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 KJV

With a tender conscience ask yourself if you have obeyed the following:

You shall have no other gods before Me.

(Have you always kept God first in your life?)

Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3 KJV

Thou shall not lie. (Have you lied even once? Including answering these questions).

A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.

Proverbs 19:5 KJV

You shall not steal. (Have you ever stolen anything irrelevant of the value?)

Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15 KJV

You shall not take God’s name in vain. (Have you ever used God’s name as a cuss word? “Jesus Christ or Oh my God”?)

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7 KJV

You shall not commit adultery. (Have you lusted after someone or had sex before marriage?)

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:27-28 KJV

You shall not murder. (Have you hated someone? Which is murder of the heart.)

Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. 1 John 3:15 KJV

If you have answered Yes to any of these questions, by your own admission you’re a lying, thieving, blasphemer, adulterer, idolater and murderer at heart. That’s how God sees you: nothing is hidden from His Holy eyes.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14 KJV

The Bible says that if we have broken even one of God’s commandments, we are guilty of breaking all His laws.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

James 2:10 KJV

God is holy, just and righteous and will even judge our thoughts, word and deeds. This is how serious sin is to God. If you have violated any of God’s laws, you will be guilty on Judgement Day. The penalty of sin is death, and you will end up in a terrible place called Hell.

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 KJV

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Hebrews 10:31KJV

However, the Bible says God is rich in mercy, and in His great kindness, He provided a Saviour, Jesus, who took the punishment for the sin of the world. He died on the cross so that we could be forgiven, then rose from the dead and defeated death. God doesn’t want you to go to Hell. Neither do you want to go there. To receive everlasting life as a free gift, repent, believe, trust, and have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone and the sacrifice made through His precious blood shed on the cross through His death, burial, and resurrection.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:8,9 KJV

God will forgive your sins and grant you everlasting life. God will give you a new nature (born-again), and He will walk with you through the Holy Spirit. Eternal life is a free gift. You can’t earn it by doing anything. Then read the Holy Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8,9 KJV

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

John 5:24 KJV

Blessings in Christ.

David & Gay
