TIME IS SHORT

Prophecy is unfolding before our eyes. The forces of evil seem to be going unchecked as the age of grace winds down ... and we groan under the weight of it all.

Not only is wickedness deemed acceptable (even admirable), but righteousness is considered hateful and intolerant. To the souls who wilfully engage in today's reprobate culture, judgment is coming ... 

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter. Isaiah 5:20

Time is short. There is a compelling sense of urgency in the spiritual realm now. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has become a final clarion call to a world on the precipice of eternity. 

I urge you to surrender to the One who paid your sin debt before it's too late. The Lord's redemptive plan is laid out in Scripture ... allow it to guide you step by step into a saving relationship with Him.  

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Confessing that you are indeed a sinner allows feelings of remorse to rise to the surface.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. The 'penalty' you deserve for sin and the good news of a 'gift' are both revealed.

Ephesians 2:8,9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Grace is noted, faith is noted, and one's inability to earn the gift is revealed. It has nothing to do with organized religion or the doctrines of men.

Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Even in our sinful state, divine love is extended ... revealing God's true nature.

John 3:16,17 For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. God's plan is put in motion ... the promise of redemption through faith in Christ. 

If reading these passages stirs something within, know that it is Jesus knocking at your heart's door. He is lovingly beckoning you to come ...

Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 

It's time to lay your burden down ...

2 Corinthians 6:2 Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

So ... what must you do to be saved? 

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  

Express your faith by praying to the One who welcomes you with open arms ... 

Lord, forgive me. I know that I am lost in sin and that I cannot save myself. I believe that you are the only begotten Son of God, that you bore my iniquity on Calvary's cross, and that the grave could not hold you. By faith, I receive the gift of salvation and surrender my life to your Lordship. 

You are accepted in the Beloved ... These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. (1 John 5:13)

If you have accepted this precious gift by faith, continue to trust Him with full assurance that your sins are forgiven.
