"The Invitation"

“The Invitation”

The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the Water of Life.”       Revelation 22:17



When you receive an invitation to a party or get-together, there usually is a RSVP on the invitation.  Which means that you should RESPOND to the invitation, will you GO or NOT GO?



It’s the SAME with God’s INVITATION to mankind, for them to COME to JESUS CHRIST for the SALVATION of their WRETCHED, THIRSTY souls.   It is an INVITATION with CONSEQUENCES. 



The Spirit, which is the Holy Spirit of God and the Bride, which is the Church, the Body of Christ, the REDEEMED, are INVITING you to “COME!” and to partake of the WATER of LIFE.  Jesus in His encounter with the woman at the well, offers the woman, who had come to the well to draw water, an INVITATION to drink from a SPECIAL water, one that will quench her SPIRITUAL THIRST.  This is His INVITATION: “Whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will NEVER be thirsty again.  The water that I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to ETERNAL LIFE.”(John 4:14) Verse sixteen:  “Go, call your husband and COME here.” And she did as Jesus asked.  She answered His RSVP.   



So it is, with mankind, today, God, through His Holy Spirit and the Church, is offering an INVITATION for you to “COME!”  and to partake of that SPECIAL WATER, the WATER of LIFE, that is provided through the LORD JESUS CHRIST, and His REDEMPTIVE WORK on the CROSS, and His MIRACULOUS RESURRECTION. He is the ONLY WAY to be able to have that WATER of LIFE, springing up inside of you, the gift of ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS. 



If you should REJECT His INVITATION, you will experience the CONSEQUENCE of spending ALL ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you’re there.  In order to ACCEPT His INVITATION, you MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. CONFESSING your sins to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS. BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and the CONSEQUENCE of spending ALL ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  SO, “COME!” to JESUS, NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
