“The Unshakable Kingdom”

 “The Unshakable Kingdom”

When God spoke from Mount Sinai His voice shook the earth, but now He makes another promise:   “Once again I will shake not only the earth but the heavens also.”  This means that all of creation will be shaken and removed, so that only unshakable things will remain.       Hebrews 12:26-27

When God spoke from Mount Sinai to the Israelites, the whole earth SHOOK, but He will NOT ONLY SHAKE the EARTH, but also the HEAVENS, this will be done to the Universe, during the end of the age, which is described in REVELATIONS, chapters 6-19.  God will SHAKE the nations before Jesus comes to set up a KINGDOM that CANNOT be SHAKEN.  It will be a time when ALL God’s TRUE CHILDREN will be able to SHARE in the GLORY of CHRIST as He establishes His UNSHAKABLE KINGDOM on earth. 

All physical things will then be DESTROYED and ONLY the ETERNAL things , those that CANNOT be SHAKEN, will remain. And God will create a NEW HEAVEN and a NEW EARTH, which will be ETERNAL and UNSHAKABLE.  We SHOULD be THANKFUL for His UNSHAKABLE KINGDOM, and we SHOULD show our THANKSGIVING, by PLEASING HIM with our WORSHIP, in REVERENCE and AWE, because our GOD is a DEVOURING FIRE.  His punishment towards those who REJECT Him will be SEVERE.  Are you one of those who are facing this SEVERE PUNISHMENT?  

 IF so, God has a plan for those who have REJECTED Him and His Son, the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  That is, IF you will ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER, in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS.  And IF you BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for YOU, before God.  And 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.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION, and RECEIVE His promise of an UNSHAKABLE KINGDOM, that will last throughout ETERNITY.  And you will be ABLE to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  So, do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  DON’T be LEFT BEHIND!!!

“Confident Trust”

 “ Confident Trust”

So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord.  Remember the great reward it brings you!  Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s Will.  Then you will receive all that He has promised.    Hebrews 10:35-36

In verses 32-34, the author of the Book of Hebrews, whom I believe to be the Apostle Paul, reminded the readers, of the PERSECUTIONS they had been through, in the early days when they first came to Christ.   And he reminded them that they accepted it with JOY.  Because they KNEW there were BETTER things waiting for them, ETERNAL THINGS that would LAST FOREVER.

In verse 35, Paul encourages them to HOLD ON to their CONFIDENT TRUST in the Lord Jesus.  He encouraged them to NOT RUN away from their RELATIONSHIP with the LORD, but to REMEMBER the GREAT REWARD it will bring them.  That REWARD is the CULMINATION of their SALVATION and their ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN with ALL its BLESSINGS, and to be ABLE to ESCAPE HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after they are there. 

He also tells them that they will NEED PATIENT ENDURANCE through ALL their PERSECUTIONS, that they might CONTINUE to do the WILL of GOD.  And that they SHOULD live in COMPLETE, CONFIDENT TRUST in the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  If they would put their CONFIDENT TRUST, COMPLETELY in CHRIST, they could RECEIVE ALL that He PROMISED.  

In verses 37-39 Paul tells them these encouraging words: “For in just a little while, the Coming One will come and NOT delay.  And the RIGHTEOUS ONES will LIVE by FAITH.  But I will take NO PLEASURE in ANYONE who turns away.”  But we, (the TRUE BELIEVERS) are NOT like those who turn away from God to their OWN DESTRUCTION.  We are the FAITHFUL ONES , whose SOULS will be SAVED.”  Are YOU one of the FAITHFUL ones?  Or are YOU, one who TURNS AWAY from the LORD, and is headed for DESTRUCTION and an ETERNITY in HELL?

In order to become a FAITHFUL ONE, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who GAVE His LIFE to SAVE your sin-sick SOUL from an ETERNITY in HELL.  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.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION, and place your CONFIDENT TRUST in CHRIST ALONE.  And REMEMBER the GREAT REWARD is still to COME.  So, Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING, and COMING SOON!!!   DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!!

“The Stumbling Stone Or the Precious Stone”

 “The Stumbling Stone Or the Precious Stone”

And, “He is the Stone that makes people stumble, the Rock that makes them fall.”  1 Peter 2:8

This verse of Scripture, is describing the LORD JESUS CHRIST, as a STUMBLING STONE that makes people STUMBLE, and a ROCK that makes them FALL.  The other day I took a little tumble, and I have the marks to attest to that fact.  I, however, did NOT trip over a STONE or FALL because of a ROCK, I just lost my balance, while bending down, and undoing my dog’s leash.  Anyway,  I want us to look at some IMPORTANT things concerning whether this STONE in our verse, is a STUMBLING STONE or a PRECIOUS STONE to YOU. 

To the UNBELIEVER, Jesus Christ is a STUMBLING STONE, and the ROCK that makes them FALL.  And they STUMBLE because they do NOT OBEY God’s Word, and they REBEL against His Ways.  They also REJECT His Plan of SALVATION made POSSIBLE through His Son, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who came to SUFFER, BLEED, and DIED, but was RESURRECTED to LIFE, in order for MANKIND to be able to be FORGIVEN of their SINS and to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after they are there.  

The reason, Jesus is a STUMBLING STONE, is because He carried out the plans of His Heavenly Father, the LORD GOD, ALMIGHTY, who SENT HIM to be the WAY out for mankind’s  SINS and SHORTCOMINGS.  In carrying out those plans He brings to LIGHT the SINFUL LIFESTYLE they are living.  And thus He becomes the ROCK that causes them to FALL, because they LOVE the DARKNESS MORE than they do the LIGHT, for the LIGHT exposes their SINS. And for those who decide to STAY in the DARKNESS and to CONTINUE in their SINS and UNBELIEF, they will meet the fate that was planned for them, which is; an ETERNAL SPIRITUAL DEATH, with HELL as their ETERNAL DESTINY.  

If you are a TRUE BELIEVER, then JESUS is a PRECIOUS STONE to YOU.  This is because you have given your HEART and LIFE to Him.  And you are considered a part of GOD’S HOLY FAMILY.  One who is FORGIVEN, and CLEANSED from ALL of your INIQUITIES, and YOU will spend ALL of YOUR ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Because JESUS is YOUR SOLID ROCK, He will arm you with STRENGTH and He will make your way PERFECT.  So, is He your STUMBLING STONE or your PRECIOUS STONE?

In order for Him to be your PRECIOUS STONE, and your SOLID ROCK, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  And 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.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION and let JESUS be your PRECIOUS STONE.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!   DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!!

“The AMAZING Gift Of GRACE”

“The AMAZING Gift Of GRACE”

So just as sin ruled over all people and brought them to death, now God’s Wonderful Grace rules instead, giving us right standing with God and resulting in Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.    Romans 5:21

The sin of one man, Adam caused death to rule over many.  Mankind was born with a SINFUL nature.  When Adam sinned, sin entered the world, through that sinful nature.  Adam’s sin brought SPIRITUAL DEATH, so that death spread to everyone, for EVERYONE SINNED.  But God brought a GREATER solution to the SIN problem.  It was God’s WONDERFUL, AMAZING GRACE, and His GIFT of FORGIVENESS, which was made POSSIBLE through His Son, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who took the punishment of ALL MANKIND of ALL the AGES, and provided us with a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God. And this RIGHT STANDING with God gives us an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS and the ability to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  

Many believe that KEEPING the LAW was all one needed to be SAVED, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to KEEP ALL the LAW.  The LAW was not given to SAVE mankind, BUT it was given to REVEAL our SINS.  God’s AMAZING GIFT of GRACE, towards ALL mankind, and made POSSIBLE through JESUS CHRIST, provided what the LAW could NOT provide—-SALVATION.  God’s AMAZING GRACE and His Gift of Righteousness, for ALL who will receive it, will be VICTORIOUS over the SIN’S rule and SPIRITUAL DEATH, because of the REDEMPTIVE ACT of the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  

Have you received God’s AMAZING GIFT of GRACE, or are you STILL being RULED by your SINFUL LIFE-STYLE, which will bring you an ETERNAL SPIRITUAL DEATH?  The TRUE BELIEVER is looking for the RAPTURE, the removal of ALL TRUE BELIEVERS from this WRETCHED, SINFUL, WORLD, and we BELIEVE that it will happen SOON!  Only those who have RECEIVED God’s AMAZING Gift of GRACE, through His SON, Jesus Christ, will be RAPTURED.  Those who are LEFT BEHIND are those who are being RULED by their SINS, and are UNBELIEVERS.  They will be LEFT to the MOST HORRENDOUS, FRIGHTENING, WORLD, that this world has EVER KNOWN, which is called the TRIBULATION.  

In order to ESCAPE this HORRIBLE FUTURE EVENT, you MUST do the following things:  You MUST ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, God’s Only Son, who SUFFERED, BLED, and DIED, to bring YOU to a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God.  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.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s AMAZING GIFT of GRACE, and His SALVATION, and an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, because you have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD, made possible through the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  So, do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON, and DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!!

 

“A Right Relationship With God”

 “A Right Relationship With God”

So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God.    Romans 5:11

Many people consider themselves to be RIGHT with the Almighty God, because they have a specific set of beliefs that would give them the right to the GLORIES of the Almighty God.  However, that is NOT what makes you RIGHT with GOD, it is whether or NOT you have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God.  You can have RELIGION and still be LOST and on your way to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  You can BELIEVE in God and still NOT have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with Him.  Even the DEMONS BELIEVE in God, but they DO NOT possess a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with Him.  

When we were HELPLESS and WITHOUT HOPE, JESUS CHRIST, came at the RIGHT TIME and DIED for US, the SINNERS. And God showed His GREAT LOVE for us by sending His ONLY SON, JESUS to DIE for us. And when we ACCEPT this ACT of REDEMPTION, and BELIEVE with ALL our HEART that JESUS died for US, in order to give us a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD, then we are MADE RIGHT in God’s Sight, and we will be SAVED from GOD’S WRATH and HIS CONDEMNATION.  And we will be able to SHARE in ALL the GLORIES of GOD, with an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  And we can REJOICE in our WONDERFUL NEW RELATIONSHIP with GOD, because of what the LORD JESUS CHRIST did to give US a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD.  

You may have been raised in church, and still attend regularly, give generously.  And you may hold different positions in the church, even your parents and grandparents may have held important positions in the church.  And you might have RELIGION, but NONE of those things will bring you SALVATION, and a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with GOD.  In order to have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God, you MUST ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER, in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  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. And 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 you MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and that RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with Almighty God.  And be able to SHARE in the GLORIES of GOD in HEAVEN for ALL of ETERNITY.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!! 

“Examples Of God’s Grace and Kindness”

 “Examples Of God’s Grace and Kindness”

 So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of His Grace and Kindness toward us, as shown in all He has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.   Ephesians 2:7

The question is: Are YOU an EXAMPLE of GOD’S GRACE and KINDNESS?  If you are a TRUE BELIEVER, then you SHOULD be a SHINING EXAMPLE of His Grace and His KINDNESS, because He saved you by His GRACE when you first BELIEVED.  And it is not by ANYTHING you have done, so you cannot take CREDIT for your SALVATION.  It is a GIFT from God, it is NOT a REWARD for all the GOOD THINGS you have done.  And this is ONE thing that you CANNOT BOAST ABOUT, unless, you BOAST ABOUT it being the WORK of CHRIST JESUS, God’s ONLY SON, who SUFFERED, BLED, and DIED, and was RESURRECTED from DEATH and the GRAVE, in order to provide the GIFT of SALVATION, to a LOST and DYING WORLD that is without HOPE.  

The TRUE BELIEVER, is God’s Masterpiece. They are CREATED ANEW in Christ Jesus, in order for them to do the GOOD THINGS that God had PLANNED for them LONG AGO.  The TRUE BELIEVER, used to be SPIRITUALLY DEAD because of their DISOBEDIENCE and their many sins. They used to LIVE in SIN , just like the REST of the WORLD, doing the devil’s bidding.  That old devil is at work in the HEARTS of those who REJECT and REFUSE to OBEY GOD, those who CONTINUE in their SINS, REJECTING the GIFT of GOD, His SALVATION.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you do NOT belong to Him, and you are destined to come under His WRATH, JUDGMENT and CONDEMNATION, which means that you will be spending your ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  And you are FAR  from being an EXAMPLE of GOD’S GRACE and KINDNESS, unless you will ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  And 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.  Then you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFE-STYLE, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And you MUST ACCEPT God’s GIFT of SALVATION and be a SHINING EXAMPLE of GOD’S GRACE and KINDNESS.  And spend your ETERNITY in HEAVEN with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t be LEFT BEHIND!!!

“Your Choice: Blessing Or Curse!”

“Your Choice: Blessing Or Curse!”

Look, today I am giving you the choice between a blessing and a curse!  You will be blessed if you obey the commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today.  But you will be cursed if you reject the commands of the LORD your God and turn away from Him and worship gods you have not known before.     Deuteronomy 11:26-28

This is a WARNING from Moses to the Nation of Israel, concerning their OBEDIENCE to the COMMANDS of the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.  And this WARNING is SO applicable to the ETERNAL DESTINY of MANKIND, today.  The LORD GOD, has provided for mankind to receive His BLESSINGS through His ABUNDANT MERCY and His AMAZING GRACE, made possible through the ULTIMATE SACRIFICE of the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s Only Son, and the ONLY ONE who can keep us AWAY from the AWFUL CURSE, because of mankind’s DISOBEDIENCE to GOD’S COMMANDS.  

The Apostle Paul tells us:  “So now there is NO condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.  And because you belong to Him the power of the LIFE-GIVING Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to DEATH” (spiritual death). (Rom. 8:1)  “God did what the law could NOT do.  He sent His ONLY SON in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an END to sin’s CONTROL over us by GIVING His Son as a SACRIFICE for our sins.” (V3b)  ‘So letting your sinful nature CONTROL your mind leads to death.  BUT letting the SPIRIT control your mind leads to LIFE and PEACE.  For the SINFUL NATURE is ALWAYS HOSTILE to God.  It NEVER did OBEY God’s Laws, and it NEVER will.  That’s why those who are STILL under the CONTROL of their SINFUL NATURE can NEVER please God.”  (Vv6-8).  But those who are NOT CONTROLLED by their SINFUL NATURE  are CONTROLLED by the Spirit if they have the Spirit of God living in them.  It is the SPIRIT of the LIVING GOD that GIVES you an ETERNAL SPIRITUAL LIFE, even though this body will DIE, you will have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, because you have been made RIGHT with the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.  

However, for those who REJECT the COMMAND of God, to TURN AWAY FROM their sinful life-style and to TURN to GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, and who TURN AWAY from God to FOLLOW other gods, they will receive the CURSE of spending an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once they are there.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, through His Son JESUS CHRIST, you have the opportunity NOW to make a CHOICE, that will determine your ETERNAL DESTINY.  Will it be a CURSE or a BLESSING.  In order to receive the BLESSING, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  And 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 you MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and receive the BLESSING and NOT the CURSE.  So, do this NOW, while you STILL can. He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t be LEFT BEHIND!!!

 

“Living A Life Worthy of His Call”

 “Living A Life Worthy Of His Call”

So we keep on praying for you, asking our God to enable you to live a life worthy of His call.  May He give you the power to accomplish all the good things your faith prompts you to do.       2 Thessalonians 1:11

The Apostle Paul always seems to have a GENUINE LOVE and CARE for the Believers in Thessalonica, and everywhere, he has ministered.  He is always offering prayers for their SPIRITUAL WELL-BEING, which is very admirable of him.  And his words are applicable for the Believers of today too.  He ENCOURAGES them to LIVE a life WORTHY of the ALMIGHTY GOD’S CALL on their life.  

It SHOULD be the nature of EVERY TRUE BELIEVER, to GLORIFY GOD EVERY DAY.  They should do this in order for God to FULFILL His purposes in their lives, and that they might LIFT the PRECIOUS NAME of JESUS CHRIST, GOD’S ONLY SON, that it might be GLORIFIED. JESUS GAVE His Life to SAVE their sinful souls from an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE once they are there. And to provide for them an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS. 

The TRUE BELIEVER, can be CONFIDENT even in SUFFERING and PERSECUTION, because they have been CHOSEN by God, and they can have the ASSURANCE that He will NEVER FORSAKE them.  Paul tells us in Philippians 1:6:  He is CERTAIN that God, who began the Good Work within you, will continue His Work until it is finally finished on the Day when Christ Jesus returns.  So, it is the RESPONSIBILITY of the TRUE BELIEVER, to LIVE their LIVES WORTHY of GOD’S CALL on their LIVES.  And to ALLOW God to WORK out His PERFECT PLAN in their lives through THEIR FAITH and OBEDIENCE and HIS MIGHTY POWER.  

If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, you are headed for an ETERNITY in HELL.  In order to CHANGE that COURSE, you MUST FIRST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  And then you MUST BELIEVE 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 LIFESTYLE and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then you MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and start LIVING A LIFE WORTHY of HIS CALL.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t be LEFT BEHIND!!!

“Taking the Smooth Path”

“Taking the Smooth Path”

For those who are righteous, the way is not steep and rough.  You are a God who does what is right, and You smooth out the path ahead of them.  Lord, we show our trust in You by obeying Your Laws; our heart’s desire is to glorify Your Name.   Isaiah 26:7-8

One thing the Prophet Isaiah is indicating in our Scripture is; that it is a GOOD thing for people to live RIGHTEOUSLY, for those who are RIGHTEOUS, the way is NOT STEEP nor is it ROUGH.  This is because God SMOOTHS out their PATHWAY, but this does NOT mean that they will NOT have any problems, because we live in a FALLEN world, with FALLEN people, even the RIGHTEOUS will FALL into TEMPTATIONS, which will cause them to SIN.  And thus we have a situation that leads to consequences, which needs to be dealt with.  If a person is a TRUE BELIEVER and is LIVING according to GOD’S Word (Law), and their actions are FAVORABLE to God, then their consequences will be FAVORABLE.  But if they REJECT God’s Word (Laws) then they will experience CRITICAL consequences.

Another thing the Prophet indicated, was that God is RIGHTEOUS and ALWAYS does what is RIGHT.  So, those who FOLLOW His LEADERSHIP and His LAWS, and LIVE ACCORDINGLY, will find their PATH to be SMOOTHER than for those who do NOT FOLLOW His LEADERSHIP and LAWS, and through their ACTIONS, their PATH is STEEP and ROUGH.  And their DESTINY is JUDGMENT and CONDEMNATION, and they will be facing ETERNAL LIFE in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once they are there.  The ONLY WAY, to be able to take the SMOOTH PATH, which leads to an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, is to; ADMIT that THEY are a SINNER, in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, God’s ONLY SON, who SUFFERED, DIED, and was RESURRECTED from DEATH and the GRAVE, in order for YOU and ME to have that ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN.  And they MUST BELIEVE that JESUS died for THEM, and is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for them before God.  They MUST CONFESS their SINS to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  They MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM their sinful life-style, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  They MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION, and STOP REJECTING HIM, and let Him place their feet on a SMOOTH PATH, to His SOLID ROCK. So, if you find your path to be STEEP and ROUGH, you NEED to do the above, NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t be LEFT BEHIND!!!
