Do you know Him?
The very clearly delineated message of salvation from Jesus Himself, the Gatekeeper to Heaven, is: “deny himself…”, express “a willingness to endure whatever may come”, and “follow Me” – which means “believing in Me, conforming to My example in living”. It’s free. It’s simple. But it will cost you.
If I were to let sin reign in my body, then — what a mess. But I don’t let it. I am not “these things”. I am strong in Him. Only in Him.
What will your final check-in look like? Scenes of Hell, or scenes of Heaven? Will you check-in to “a full and perfect reward” or “no reward” and clothes a’ smokin’ “as one who has barely escaped through fire”?
However brief or casual – throughout most days we have a precious chance to give individuals hope for the future, show them the love of Jesus.
How can it be that God allows me into His very presence? I just can’t comprehend it. What a privilege.
Jesus predicted that a world-wide trap is going to trounce on the whole world unexpectedly. We are in that predicted time now! But He said He will rescue His followers from that trouncing (Revelation 3:10-11). You ready?
