Deuteronomy 4:24(NKJV)
24For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
Hebrews 4:13(NKJV)
13And there is no creature hidden from His
sight, but all things are naked and
open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
Here are a couple of
verses that go to a point I have made in the past. The point is that God doesn't take a la dee
dah, live and let live approach when people reject Jesus.
Hebrews 4:13 tells
us that all will have to give an account to God. Not just those who accepted Jesus but
all. Imagine how uncomfortable that
event is going to be. Can you imagine
standing before God and having to explain to Him that you didn't believe the
Word (the Bible) that He gave us, you thought He was a liar. Wow, I sure wouldn't want to be in that
position.
Thankfully I don't
ever have to be. I have accepted Jesus
as my Savior, have you? When you accept
Jesus you are telling God that you believe His Word and that you have faith in
Him. Doesn't mean life will be
perfect. Doesn't mean you won't sin or
fail occasionally, but it does mean that you are right with God.
So how do you accept
Jesus? Pretty simple. Just pray something like this: Dear Jesus,
I don't totally get this whole thing but I am willing to take a leap of
faith. I can feel that tiny voice deep
inside me telling me that I should follow you so I am going to do so. Please take over my life and guide me. Amen".
It's that simple and it sure beats having to explain to God that you
thought He was a liar!
