Just a thought from my heart today. Christ is knocking at the door of our hearts and wants us to come to Him, to turn from our sinful ways, to repent and turn our lives around, to YIELD to Him, and to accept His gift of eternal life for His sacrificial death. BUT you do NOT have forever to get this done.
I realized the other day why so many people seem to have lost their common sense and why they seem to have a hatred for God. We are all created with a (so to speak) hole in our hearts that long to know God. We have a conscious that tells us right from wrong. God is calling us to come to Him and to accept His gift of salvation through Christ's death on the cross. IF we continue to turn away from God and the pricking of our conscious when we do wrong, THEN:
God's Wrath on Unrighteousness - Romans 1
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.
19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,
25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
How about you? Have you given your life to Christ? OR are you putting off salvation? You won't have forever. The Holy Spirit is pricking your heart to come to salvation BUT He won't do it forever. At some point God will turn you over to your own desires and idols. Don't wait....come to Christ!!
