| Warnings |
| “Caution, the moving walkway is ending … Caution, the moving walkway is ending.” |
| If you’ve ever used the moving walkway at an airport, you’ve hear this kind of announcement repeatedly. |
| Why do airports repeat this announcement over and over? To ensure safety and to protect them from liability and lawsuits if someone were injured. |
| Repeated announcements can be annoying, but they do have value. As a matter of fact, the Apostle Paul thought repeating warnings was vital. Here is what he records on the matter: |
| “Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears” (Acts 20:31). |
| “I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you” (1 Corinthians 4:14). |
| “To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe” (Philippians 3:1). |
| There are many warnings in the gospel to the lost, as to the reality of leaving this world without Christ as our Savior. I hope each of our readers has headed those warnings! |
