It Must Be Salvation or Perdition

YOU may not neglect your honest duties; you may not neglect to say prayers; you may not neglect to go to church or chapel; you may not neglect to read the Bible; but, dear reader, do you not neglect salvation?, Do you not neglect Christ, and refuse Him as your Saviour? What can be worse? Do you not know, therefore, that you are in the road to eternal perdition? Oh! that you may now acknowledge the rich mercy of God in giving His only begotten Son to die for poor ruined sinners like you and me, that whosoever (observe, "whosoever") whether rich or poor, profligate or moral; "whosoever," grayheaded or youthful, learned or ignorant; "whosoever" you are, or whatever be your history, condition, or character, if you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, He declares that you " shall not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:1616For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16).) JOH 3:1616For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
But if you continue to refuse the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour, the time of terrible judgment will assuredly find you out. He will become your Judge. You will be speechless before Him, and He will justly condemn you to outer darkness “with the devil and his angels "forever. "Flee from the wrath to come."
