Take a second and look at your watch or at the clock. Whatever the time may be right this moment, you can say: "This very moment I am in Christ or in my sins!"
You are either saved or lost, heading for heaven or for hell. You may not believe it; you may very much dislike thinking of it and do your best to speedily forget it. Nevertheless it is true. Ahead lies "everlasting punishment" or "life eternal."
This very moment, God has power to call you into His presence. What would be your destiny then? "It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." Heb. 9:2727And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27).
At this very moment, God's record is being made in that book from which every sinner is to be judged. That record is true and in it God records your words, your deeds, and the very thoughts and intents of your heart. Will you be glad to see their display in that day?
This very moment has already passed into eternity to witness against you. Are you still in your sins, still not cleansed by the precious blood of Christ?
THINK! This very moment He longs to rescue you from the pit of despair and to save you for a glorious eternity with Him in heaven. Why refuse Him?
This very moment yield your heart, your life, your soul to Christ. This very moment you are hardening or softening under the weight of these solemn facts. Are you turning to or from our Lord Jesus?
This very moment may determine your eternal destiny. Eternal hell or eternal heaven depends upon your own decision.
May the Lord Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit and by His love, at this very moment turn your rebellious will to Himself.
"As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die?" Ezek. 33:1111Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? (Ezekiel 33:11).
