There are some things I want to talk to you about. Just a couple of things I want you to consider before you leave.
Some things are never going to go away no matter how badly you want them too. Even Jesus! You see I know some of you have been running all of your lives. I know this not because I have any special abilities or anything like that, but because I have been there and done that. It is hard to stop running. It is hard to stay and fight. But when the day comes you will have no other choice. I just hope it is not too late. I hope you are not reading this after the rapture of the church.
You see, I don't know anyone that is truly saved that did not get radically saved. Anybody that turns from a life of sin to a life for Christ has made a radical turn. That is just the point of salvation. Salvation is turning away from a life of sin and turning that life over to Christ.
If you will just give Jesus the chance He will make things right. Spending all your time and all your money on things will not get you anywhere. I don't care what you stand to loose. It is what you stand to gain that I want to tell you about.
Yes, your friends will probably leave you. Your family will probably think your nuts. But what you will gain in heaven will outway the trials and tribulations here on earth. The treasures that await you will be more than anything that this world could ever offer you.
Jesus really is wonderful. That fact is never going to change. And you will get a chance to meet Him. But when you stand before Him what will he say to His Father? Please don't let it be "sorry, I never knew you". I couldn't bare it if I did not tell you these things. It is not that I am trying to force you to do anything against your will. I just want you to know the truth.
And that is the truth as I know it. He is alive and well and sitting at the right hand of the Father and he awaits your decision. What will it be? A life with Christ? Or a life burning in hell for eternity? You see the pleasures of this life are only for a season. This season being your lifetime. But there is life after death.........in heaven or hell.
The good news is that you get to decide where it will be. The choice is all yours. There is no magic potion you have to drink, no magic wand to wave over your head. Just turn away from the things in your life that are not Godly. Take out the trash that has piled up inside you and kick it to the curb.
Life really does come with an owners manuel so if you have made a choice to turn your life around how about sending me an email and let me know. I really want to help you stay on that straight and narrow road. So write me and let me know which choice you have made!
Forget the question? Thats okay because:
Isn't it great to know all the answers even before the question is asked?
