Man's Responsibility

God holds all who have heard the gospel responsible to believe it. He "commandeth all men everywhere to repent" (Acts 17:30), for the day is fast approaching when the "strong delusion" shall be sent to those who in this day of grace "believe not the truth" (2 Thess. 2:11, 12).
The blood of Christ will avail them nothing then. The door of mercy will be closed against such forever then (Matt. 25:10-12); and "the Lord Jesus (the Savior now) shall" then "be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire king vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ; who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power." 2 Thess. 1:7-9.
"He that believeth not the Son SHALL NOT see life." Mark it well, Universalist! "Shall not see life; but the wrath of God ABIDETH ON him." Mark it well, Annihilationist! "Abideth on him" in the long eternal NOW (John 3:36)!
Reader, these are God's plain facts. Pervert not their meanings, but "Turn ye, turn ye, for why will ye die?”
