Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Hello dear friends, yesterday was a busy day and it was good to see some things get accomplished. We were able to complete the roof on the teen building, and get 1/2 of the floor decking laid. We will be framing in the door and getting the fascia finished off today and hopefully we can get this thing wrapped up so we can get the teenagers in there. We also had a tremendous turn out for visitation last night, there were a lot of families that showed up and we were able to cover a lot of visits. I was riding with one of our deacons and we were talking about the cold shoulders that we happen to come across while out door knocking, and the seemingly non-caring attitude of most folks and how they just seemed to roll their eyes when invited to church. Friend, I don't know where your at in your life, but I remember when I was lost no one ever really cared enough for me to come to my house to invite me to church, had they I might have given it some thought at least, at a minimum I would have listened politely. The Bible says from today's verse that those that don't believe are condemned already, that is they have decided to choose option B for their life. Option B has this to look forward to..
- Wailing and Gnashing of Teeth
- Fire that never shall be quenched
- Being in torments
- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched
Friends we already live in a society that brings enough pain and agony into our lives by what it has to offer, and there are plenty that readily accepts it. Why do we continue to accept the meaningless here and now, why not look unto Jesus and accept Him as your personal Savior if you have not already? Remember there is life after death, where are you headed? When I asked a few people this question last night they said they really don't know, then I asked them if I could show them from the Bible their options for life. Their response was I don't have time, meanwhile in the background there was a room full of people. smoking, drinking and cutting up! Don't have time I thought, man the Bible says our life is but a vapor here on earth. Friend let me encourage you to take time to make sure you know whether you are going to heaven or hell, a little preparation today sure beats an eternity in torment and pain! I encourage you to consider it now for you never know what the next moment may bring. As the old preacher says in Ecc 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter....Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Joh 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
