"You will perish, unless you REPENT OF YOUR SINS and turn to God!"
Have you seen the cartoons were the holy man is holding a sign that reads "REPENT SINNER"?
Usually the other side of the sign reads, "THE END IS NEAR". The sign is being held by a man in a robe and sandals, with a long white beard, reminding us of John the Baptist. There is always a joke at the bottom that is meant to be funny. How ironic that something that contains such a concise statement of the Truth has become a joke to so many. The consequences of not getting the message are anything but funny and the difference between life and death. It may seem clever or humorous to make light of our One Truth Today but your life is at stake. YOU WILL PERISH UNLESS YOU REPENT OF YOUR SINS AND TURN TO GOD!
In God's timing mere mortals are always close to the end. The message that the end is near is the truth for us individually. We are here and in the twinkling of God's eye we will reach the end of our human life. It is true that all men will perish and death will happen to all of us. This is not a joke. Your soul will end up in one of two places for eternity. You can be damned to Hell forever, or you can REPENT OF YOUR SINS and turn to God to be Saved and receive an eternal life in Heaven forever. You will perish unless you heed the message of the Lord!
You will not perish, but instead have everlasting life if you heed the message of this scripture.
Ask the Lord into your heart today to dwell with you. REPENT OF YOUR SINS! You can be born again into the Kingdom of God. To repent means to turn around from the path you are on, that is in the flesh and sinful, and follow the straight and narrow path that leads to God.
Turn away from the life of the flesh and instead turn to the life of the Spirit. Your choice and your consequence. You alone are responsible for your choice. REPENT SINNER AND TURN TO GOD, OR YOU WILL PERISH!
