Slipping Away

Slipping Away

Between February 7 and April 7, five people who I have known, who have played one or another significant roles in my life have slipped into Eternity.

It is with a heart heavy with the sense of the brevity of life that I implore you to receive JESUS CHRIST as your personal SAVIOR and LORD.

The BIBLE is emphatic --"No one knows the day or the hour" that each of us will breathe our last but the HOLY BOOK is also quite definitive -- "It is appointed to man once to die."

Though we don't know the time of that appointment, each of us will most assuredly keep it.

Please don't put off your commitment to JESUS to a "more convenient time." Do not presume that you have much time before you to live life to the hilt without regard to GOD and HIS law before you must ponder the reality of Eternity.

I remember reading of a notorious serial killer who had given his heart to JESUS just days prior to his execution. I remember thinking how unfair it was that none of his victims had the opportunity to make that choice before he murdered them. I remember thinking that the justice of that had to be left with GOD because I certainly couldn't make sense of it.

But the WORD is true, for it is established on HE WHO IS TRUTH: if a man lays his life at the feet of JESUS, confesses his sins and receives HIS saving grace, his sins will be washed away and he will be fit for Heaven.

It would be a shame if that vile monster were there and you weren't.

Give your life to JESUS today. Tomorrow is promised to no one.
