"Critical Moments"

"They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;" (Psalms 145:11)

  As funny as it might seem, to witness the foolishness of those that deny God and refuse to thank Him for the life they have been given, it should cause us to feel a little compassion for the road that will take them down, and the truth they are missing out on knowing. Anyone can be saved, no matter how far gone they might appear, God is always willing that all come to Him and surrender their life. Truth be told, it is going to happen one way or another, because God makes it abundantly clear, by His word, "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear." (Isaiah 45:22-23) So, if they want to know what it might look like to surrender now, or to surrender later; Now is the time where they are given a choice, later it will be mandatory! We are given so many opportunities to share the truth, as the lie is exposed all around us. It is more and more necessary to look for open doors, praying for God to open them up, and for hearts to be softened. If you know the path of Roman's Road to Salvation, then the need has never been so obvious and present; because it might appear to be a Road to lead sinners, but it is actually a Road to guide the messengers, meaning you and me! To the point of who "they" actually is, it is both, the works of God, and the saints that bless Him! We only need to speak the truth, God will manifest that truth in the heart of the sinner; and if they do not receive it, it is not on us, we have done our part. But God's Word does not return void! Oh, if only they knew how important that actually was in the choice they were given! Talk about critical moments: The Power of His Salvation, verses, the longevity of His Judgment...

Romans 3:23 - Man's Need, "For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God."

Romans 6:23 - Sin's Penalty. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ  
                        Jesus our Lord."

Romans 5:8 - God's Provision. "But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were
                       still sinners, Christ died for us."

Romans 10:9-10 - Man's Response. "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in
                                                           your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be
                                                           saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and
                                                           with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

Romans 10:13 - God's Promise. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
