"Yes," answers the man
to the knocking on the door of his office in the late
evening, "What do you want?"
"Oh! It is just to speak
a little about your soul and its eternal destiny.
But I see you are busy."
"Well, yes, I am very busy,"
replied the business man as he continues to review
his financial papers, his last year profits and next
year goals.
The visitor put out his hand to
say "Goodbye," and drawing close to the
astonished man, whispered solemnly in his ear - "Suppose
I had been Death?"
Dear friend,
Time is passing fast; another year is here. Have you made time
to think about God? Have you faced the most pressing and vital matter that can
engage your attention?
Where will you spend eternity? Heaven or Hell?
Sin is a reality, and nothing short of the atoning death of
the Son of God suffices to meet God’s righteous claims, and to enable Him to
offer you forgiveness of sins, salvation, eternal life through simple faith
in His dear Son.
Sin is a reality, and the judgment pronounced by God upon sin
is a reality. In due season you will have to face that judgment. The power of
sin in your life is a reality too. You cannot grapple with that power and overcome
it in your own strength. You need a Savior. The Savior is knocking on the door
of your heart now. Would you open to him before it is too late? He, the sinless
one, paid for your sins on the cross. He is raised from among the dead and is
offering to you now the free gift of eternal life. He is coming again soon and
you will have to meet Him.
Will you meet Him as your SAVIOR or as your JUDGE?
"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ
and thou shalt be saved" (Acts 16:31). "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" (Romans
10:9).
