99% SURE AND 100% LOST
Ben Marler, Jr
One day I heard a great preacher say what led him to get saved was a message
that included the statement, if you are only 99% sure you are saved then
you are 100% lost. That soon to be great preacher quickly realized he was not sure he would go to
heaven when he died. He said when the invitation was given he was one of the first to the altar.
Please allow me to ask you now, are you 100% positive you would go to heaven
if you were to die while reading this? Now be honest, as this may be your
last chance. This may be your last few moments on Earth, only God knows for
sure. Most folks think they will live to be 70 or more but many dont.
Believe me, God is more interested in your eternal life than you or me. He
created each one of us in His image. We are so special to Him He gave us our own custom fingerprints. Isnt that amazing? Could evolution have done
this? I think not!
If you read the Bible you will find that our God and Heavenly Father is sensitive and is easily moved by compassion. Each time you hear the Good
News of Jesus Christ you are experiencing His love. Did you know He has said, I will not strive with man forever?
I believe there is a time when
the Holy Spirit wont be there for you when the Gospel is preached if you
treat the Lord with contempt. Only He can let you hear.
Are you ready to come to the peace that passes all understanding? Listen
to the words of Blessed Assurance.
"Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine, Oh what a foretaste of glory divine. Heir of salvation, purchase of God, born
of His Spirit, washed in His Blood. This is my story, this is my song, PRAISING MY SAVIOR ALL THE DAYLONG."
If you are not spending time praising
God everyday you may be like the preacher at the beginning of this message.
If you are near Him, you will be praising Him!
You were created for Gods pleasure and fellowship. If you havent been
giving Him any, why not surrender your life to Jesus right now and experience
the joy of TOTAL FORGIVENESS. This may be the very best part of becoming a
child of God. John 1:12
Just dont get religious. Accept Gods fellowship in Jesus and you too can sing Blessed Assurance with
all of your heart.
