Daily I write to you "Repent!"
Daily I warn of time drawing to an end!
You may get tired of hearing it, but I have no choice, for the world as we know it, IS coming to an end.
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” Romans 13:11 KJV
You who have been content to halfheartedly be counted as a Believer, will soon have to step up or turn totally aside. For you will indeed be called to choose, between life or death. Be mindful of the ramifications of your choice.
Again: “For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” Mark 8:35-37 KJV
The choice may come all at once or little by little.
My friend ask me the other day, "How do you eat an elephant?"
The answer: "One bite at a time!"
As you make your daily choices you are either moving away from or towards sin! There is no standing still. You are either gaining ground or losing it.
Today starts a new year and resolutions are being made! Is at the top of your list: 'A Closer Walk With God'? If HE is not your principle purpose in life and your desire for 2016, then your salvation is suspect!
Being "Saved" is a daily walk; putting to death the deeds of the flesh! If all you desire is to gratify your flesh, with things of this world, then you are deceived, and need to repent! Just because your church told you you are "saved"; because you "made a decision"; if your life has not changed then you are still destined for hell! You MUST take up your cross to follow Him!
Jesus said: “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:38 KJV The cross is not a piece of jewelry you wear around your neck as a fashion statement! It IS a way of life!
It means casting down your idols!
“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:34-37 KJV
When He said: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20:3 KJV He was serious!
He is a jealous God, and He will tear down your idols, if you won't!
“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.” Matthew 22:37 KJV
Do you see the word 'all'?
He means ALL!
You can't "love your children with ALL your heart" and "the LORD with all your heart" too!
He will share His throne with no one!
He HAS to be number one!
And time is running out for you to get it right!
Determine today to make Him your LORD; withholding nothing! Surrender, once and for all, and do not look back, for tomorrow may be too late!
Repent!
“We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)” 2 Corinthians 6:1-2 KJV
Even so - MARANATHA!
From 1/1/16
