DO IT NOW



CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO BLOG

My friends, the Lord loves you, and it is only natural for us to thank God for you. God chose  you to be the first ones to be saved. His Spirit made you holy, and you put your faith in the truth. God used our preaching as his way of inviting you to share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. My  friends, this is why you must remain faithful and follow closely what we taught you in person and by our letters. God our Father loves us.  He treats us with undeserved grace and has given us eternal comfort and a wonderful hope. We  pray that our Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father will encourage you and help you always to do and say the right thing.

2 Thessalonians 2:13-17  CEV

According to these verses it could be accurately said that in some sense the Thessalonian christians were the "first ones to be saved."  And that must have been a remarkable experience for them. Peace and joy and all the other fruit of the Spirit filling their hearts and minds like they had never known or even seen before.  

But there will come a day when the last person to accept Jesus Christ turns his or her heart over to the Lord!  The Door to Heaven is now open because of the Blood of Jesus, but on a day that God has decided there will be no more opportunity to accept the Lord and be saved!  No one knows when that day will come, and it will arrive with terrifying finality!  The Door will shut and you will be lost if you don't know Jesus!

Put every other priority in your life aside and let your heart run to Jesus!  If you choose to ignore Him, you will regret it forever!  This is an EMERGENCY call and nothing else matters.  Don't put Jesus in a "Something to do tomorrow" list!

Move Jesus to the top of your TO DO LIST and give your heart to Jesus now!  Don't wait until tomorrow or a more convenient time!  That time may never come! When you leave this life you don't want your list for tomorrow to include "Accepting Jesus."

"Lord Jesus the only thing that matters for the rest of my life is whether or not I accepted You as my Lord and Savior! May Your Holy and Righteous Name be praised now and forever, Amen."
