Think hard. Israel was scattered among the nations and brought back to their homeland in 1948 just as the bible says it would. The generation who saw Israel return to their homeland will see the return of Jesus. How can you ignore such a thing? I'm not debating with you just warning all.
The Apostle John saw the multitude of the damned descend into their everlasting darkness and wrote, "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). Just as Noah warned the wicked age in which He lived to "flee from the wrath to come" so I now warn you too. The world was once destroyed by a great flood of water. It will be soon be destroyed by fire. It may seem absurd to you... (although I don't know why since we live in the atomic age) but it will happen... as God's Word always proves true. Skeptics come and go but the Word of God has always been constant and unshakable! Noah surely seemed an odd fellow, building a boat when it never had rained before. Sad to say, no one believed the old preacher except his own family. So when the rain finally came, the carcasses of the skeptics and unbelievers floated upon the water... along with all of Noah's tracts which read- "Warning: The Day Of The Lord Is Near".
Let me remind you that it is not by God's choice to send you to Hell. It is your choice. You are the one who chooses to sin against God. You are one who decides to hate and murder, cheat and covet, lie, steal, lust and commit sexual perversions against God. It is your choice to be a drunkard, a druggie and a rebel. You are treading your own fearful destiny, your own pathway to destruction! You have offended God's holiness and broken His laws! You know what is wrong by natural instinct, "the law having been written in your heart" yet you chose to rebel against the conscience God gave you. You are guilty, guilty, guilty! You are sinful before Him and deserving of eternal damnation. You must be punished...
What does God say? Well ....you got one bit right... "forget what you read in some book" like the bible for instance, that would be a good start But if what "God says" is what's written in the bible (it isn't) then he has condemned himself as well as you and I....thunder old man
But Good News, my friend! There's hope! Jesus took the punishment! The gospel is simply this- Jesus, the Lamb of God took upon Himself your debt of sin. He paid for it in full. You can be forgiven and have fellowship with the Holy God that you once offended with your sin. However, to receive God's forgiveness, eternal salvation and blessings, you are required to believe the gospel and confess your sins in sorrow and regret. Do not just confess them generally. Be specific in confessing what you have done to offend His holiness. Show Him that you are sincerely sorry for your sins by MAKING A COMMITMENT NEVER TO PRACTICE THOSE SINS AGAIN! This is real repentance. "Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (Matthew 4:17,). Put your faith in His grace to keep you from falling. He will keep you!
You've obviously read nothing let alone understood anything of any of the posts in this thread including your own
It is not enough to just "say a little prayer'. Many preachers will stand in judgment for leading so many in a false conversion. How many souls are in hell right now who thought they were alright because the preacher didn't want to scare them away with a challenge and a call to a total commitment to Christ? I will not tell you a cheap and easy gospel message. Jesus requires you to give your ALL! "So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not ALL that he hath, he cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:33). "And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with ALL thy heart, and with ALL thy soul, and with ALL thy strength, and with ALL thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself." (Luke 10:27).
Many of you have hardened your heart to God and the gospel. You have heard the preaching of Jesus many times before. But you've never made a total commitment to follow Jesus. You do not care that He died for you. You are in bitterness of soul and "nigh unto cursing." I warn you! Do not harden your heart to God's love and mercy! There is no other choice left to you but His wrath and indignation! I plead with you to fall on the Rock and be broken before the rock falls on you and you are crushed to powder! (see Matthew 21:44). This is a very serious decision you must make. Your eternal destiny depends upon it! On Judgment day you will be without excuse. You have been warned of the Day of the Lord and told the Good News to avoid God's wrath. Jesus loves you... enough to warn you and give you a way out. Will you choose His loving way or go your own way to destruction? The ball is in your court now.What will you do?
Hey thunder, You must surely realize you are wasting your time here Isn't it your normal sneak trick to purvey this tripe to little children and the defenseless? THIS IS JUDGEMENT DAY. Today here and now. The ball is always in my court and always yours too. It's you it's down to. Hiding behind your god and thereby shirking the responsibility is a typical christian sin. You and your cohorts are a wicked bunch and will surely perish
