You may have been born in a church, baptized in a church, served in a church, married in a church, even died in a church, and still end up in hell because you were only in the church and not in Christ. It is necessary to be born again, take up our cross and follow Jesus.
Many may say, they have religion. Many may say, I know God.
But, they have no relationship with or even belong to the living God.
It is a trick from the devil.
The Holy Spirit is opening the world’s eyes to see that we must have a relationship with Jesus Christ, be born again and that we (the body of Christ) are the Church. The Church (body of Christ) is to assemble together in not only churches but buildings, homes, stadiums, streets, stores, schools, jobs, or wherever (Hebrews 10:23-25). The Church is called to love the Lord, love one another, worship, grow in the Grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, be equipped, share spiritual gifts, and show gratitude to God the Father.
We must raise our children to do the same.
Knowing Christ is an ongoing relationship.
How would you ever expect God to allow you to worship Him for eternity in heaven when you gave Him none of your attention on earth?
Remember this:
You will meet God.
You will have an accounting for every single word and action.
You will hear, “Welcome in.”
OR
Depart from me, I don’t know you.”
One chance, one judgment.
The Lord wants you with Him.
He is waiting.
What if today is your last chance?
