TEXT VERSION
“The Governor of Arkansas said he had never seen the state suffer so many deaths from straight-line winds that struck with hurricane force in the middle of the night.” (Jay Reeves & Phillip Rawls, AP, 4-16-11).
“Prepare to meet thy God” (Holy Bible, Amos 4:12, KJV).
Meteorologists warned of the coming danger three days previously—but many people ignored the warning, sleeping through it—or dying in it.
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them” (Holy Bible, 1 Thessalonians 5:3, KJV).
How many warnings to get right with God have you ignored? What about the souls of your children and loved ones?
Lightning struck a tree in Garland County, killing a 24-year-old man and his 18-month-old daughter—crushing them right in their bed. (Kristi Eaton, AP, 4-15-11).
Where would you be right now if that happened to you? Heaven? Or hell?
A tree fell on a house in Little Rock, killing a mother and her 8-year-old son. (Kristi Eaton, AP, 4-15-11). Where would you be right now if that happened to you? Heaven? Or hell?
If you have children, how can you teach them about their Creator, if you are running from Him?
“Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not…” (Holy Bible, Ecclesiastes 12:1, KJV). “But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven” (Holy Bible, Matthew 19:14, KJV). “Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven” (Holy Bible, Matthew 18:3-4, KJV).
We are a creation of God—not an accident of evolution.
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them” (Holy Bible, Genesis 1:27 , KJV).
If you create something, like writing a song or a book; or painting a picture; or if you come up with a new invention, then you have certain rights to that (copyrights, patents, etc.).
That is the reason that we all have to answer to God one day, because He is the Creator of all things, and that makes Him the Owner. “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” (Holy Bible, Psalm 24:1, KJV). “So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God” (Holy Bible, Romans 14:12, KJV).
Upon what have you
built your life?
Is your life your job? That could be gone in a moment. The storm hit Atoka, Oklahoma, and the owner of a factory there said, “Twenty-four hours ago this was an 80,000 square foot heavy manufacturing facility—at the moment, it’s a pile of rubble.” (Kristi Eaton, AP, 4-15-11).
Is your life your house? The storms also went through Alabama. One of the people there was killed when his mobile home was picked up and thrown almost a quarter of a mile across a state highway. (Jay Reeves & Phillip Rawls, AP, 4-16-11) Where would you be right now if that happened to you? Heaven? Or hell?
Jesus said, “And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the RAIN descended, and the floods came, and the WINDS BLEW, and beat upon that house; and it FELL: and GREAT was the FALL of it” (Holy Bible, Matthew 7:26-27, KJV).
“Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live” (Holy Bible, Ezekiel 33:11a, KJV). Turn to the Lord Jesus Christ, and ask Him to save you and forgive your sins.
Who is Jesus? He is the Son of God; God in the flesh; Creator of heaven and earth. He is Lord, which means Master; He is Jesus, which means Savior; He is the Christ, which means Messiah. He died on the cross for you, and gave His pure, sinless blood to pay the wages of your sin, which is death. He then arose from the grave the third day, proving that His blood fully paid for your sins.
To be SAVED, you must CALL upon Him from your HEART. “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.” “For WHOSOEVER shall CALL upon the NAME of the LORD shall be SAVED” (Holy Bible, Romans 10:9,13, KJV).
After we ask the Lord Jesus Christ to save us, then God instructs us to openly confess Him by getting baptized under the water, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Holy Bible, Romans 6:4, KJV).
Yes, I just asked the Lord Jesus Christ to save me, and I do desire to now get baptized, and to live a new life for God.
