“Too Late!”
Look after each other so that none of you fails to receive the Grace of God. Watch out that no poisonous root of bitterness grows up to trouble you, corrupting many. Hebrews 12:15
The writer of the Book of Hebrews, gives us a STERN reminder of what can happen to those who REJECTS and KEEPS REJECTING the GRACE of the LIVING GOD. People who are like Esau, and live a GODLESS, SINFUL lifestyle, who really has NO interest in God. And becomes bitter with the TRUE THINGS OF GOD, and they spread that bitterness to others. Bringing CORRUPTNESS into the hearts of others, who might be contemplating receiving the Grace of God.
Esau, the brother of Jacob, lived a PROFANE life, so much so that he actually sold his inheritance for a single helping of food. Afterward, when he wanted his father’s blessing, he was REJECTED, it was TOO LATE for REPENTANCE, even though he BEGGED with bitter tears.
This will be the case for those who KEEP REJECTING God’s Gift of Grace. There will come a time when God will NOT offer His GRACE to that individual again, it will be TOO LATE!! No matter how much you BEG and CRY it will be TOO LATE for REPENTANCE. Are you going to be like ESAU, and MISS OUT on your ETERNAL INHERITANCE, because you KEEP REJECTING GOD’S GIFT of GRACE? And your ETERNAL DESTINY will be an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPE, once you are there. You have the OPPORTUNITY NOW to change your ETERNAL DESTINY, by ACCEPTING GOD’S GRACE. You do that by ADMITTING that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, the SON of GOD, who gave His life to SAVE yours. You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS DIED for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you before God. You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS. You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful life-style, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. Then ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION by His GRACE, before IT’S TOO LATE!! So, do this NOW, while you STILL can. He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
