Repent or Perish

Question: Have you made a decision to repent and turn from your wicked ways, which means to be sorry and reject your sins, confessing them to the Lord, asking Him to forgive you for the sins that you have committed against Him and others, and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness and to be your Lord and Savior?  Have you been convicted of your sins through the precious Holy Spirit and come to the end of yourself, finally ready once and for all to seek the Lord to get of rid your sins through the precious blood of the Savior Jesus Christ to be cleansed and washed and forgiven and finally set free?  If you have not and you are ready that is a great thing and I don’t think you will ever regret that decision.

I want to make this very clear, the Word of God says that we have all sinned and fell short of the glory of God.  It also says there is none righteous, no not one.  It says this in the Word of God also, that our righteousness is as filthy rags.  There is no way that we can be right with God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit without being covered with the precious blood of Jesus that was shed on Calvary’s cross many years ago.  Jesus was the sacrificial Lamb, and the only way we can get to God the Father is through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ.  

When He was crucified, the veil in the Temple was rent from top to bottom, then it was like Jesus became the veil.  It relates to this in the book of Hebrews 10:19-20 check it out, “Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh.”  The only way we can get to God the Father is through Jesus the Son.

Let me tell you another truth; no one can come to Jesus unless the Father draw Him.  Everyone has a choice, you can choose Hell and with it all the pain and suffering, the endless tears plus much more, but the worst problem is that you will be separated from God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit, that also comes with that choice.  Or you can choose Heaven, the most beautiful place you have ever seen, a place where there is absolutely no sin, no thieves, no murderers.  You can’t even imagine anything like it or could you compare it to anything, a place where there is no sickness, no pain and no regret and no tears, where there are golden streets and so much more.  But, the most amazing thing that you will find anywhere will be there and that is the Holy, Righteous Father, the Holy, righteous Savior, His Son and also the Holy, Righteous Holy Spirit, there everyone will know what real love is, yes, unconditional love  and not just the word love that is thrown around when it is convenient down here.

Then you may say what if it’s not true, and I would say what if it is true, and I believe it is, and if it is, and you didn’t make the right choice look at what you have forfeited.  I can’t convince anyone, only the good Lord can do that, so the choice is up to you, I pray that you will make the right one.  Jesus related to this subject in Luke 13:2-5, “And Jesus answered and said to them, ‘Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.’”

I think you got the message, may the good Lord bless you and yours and may each of you have a super, super day and a Merry, Merry Christmas!!
