"We Persuade Men"

All blessing comes to sinners through Christ. He died upon the cross to make it possible, and the only way of salvation is through Him. Christ-rejecters miss it, and land themselves in hell; but those who will trust in Jesus, those who will take Him as their Savior, receive salvation, and eternal glory at the end.
How gracious of God to warn men of the consequences of turning away from Christ, and we who have been saved, would take up God's warnings, and reiterate them in your hearing, "Knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men." 2 Cor. 5:1111Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. (2 Corinthians 5:11).
As we would persuade a man not to steal, by bringing before him the consequences of so doing, so we would persuade you to flee to Christ for salvation, because of the awful consequences of rejecting Him.
But God gives men their last warning—this may be yours—do not neglect it. Beloved reader, turn to Christ, He can save you, and He alone.
