Caption: The image above is a painting (artist unknown) of the end of time as we know it, when the redeemed of Christ through the cross inherit eternal life and those who are not saved are cast into the lake of fire, which is the second death. This is the reality of the gospel, ONLY they that call upon the Lord will be SAVED.
Key Word / Text: Revelation 21:6-8 (NIV)
He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son.But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."
Food for Thought: As Christians we are fully aware of what the end of life will bring, the judgement of sin and the second death for those who do not accept Christ yet we seem to lack a sense of urgency in reaching out and witnessing to the lost. The bible says that we do not know the day or the hour in which Christ will return therefore we must not be slow to act but we must spread the gospel and share our faith with those we meet as if that opportunity will be their last to get saved. How important is it to you to snatch people out of their downward spiral towards hell and be the instrument that Jesus uses to rescue them?
Jude 1:23 (NKJV) '...but others save with fear,pulling them out of the fire...'
The Weekly Challenge:
1. Examine your heart and the reasons why you are selective with whom you share the gospel with or why you do not share your faith enough?
2. Make a commitment to take steps to change the things you find.
3. Email us @ pgspreadtheword@gmail.com and tell us how you get on!
