Bible Reading: Gen. 17: 12 - 28
Topic: Run to Jesus For Salvation
The young men had an
opportunity to hear about heaven and hell preached to them clearly and
convincingly but they decided not to give their lives to Christ.
They did not answer the
'what if heaven and hell prove to exist in the end?" question
Unfortunately as these two
failed to consider this question, so there are many who have likewise ignored
this question.
The second coming of
Christ and God's sure judgment that will follow, we can compare with God's
judgment on Sodom and Gomorrah (v. 14)
Lot seemed like a joke to
his in-laws and the people of Sodom.
They did not escape for
their lives and were thus destroyed by brimstone and fire.
Eternal torture and
torment in hell fire awaits all who forsake the salvation that is in Christ
Jesus (Heb. 2: 1 - 3; Rev. 20: 11. 12, 15)
Escape for your life and
avoid ending your life in hell fire.
As the Angels took Lot and
Lot's wife and were merciful to them (v. 16); so you have a warning to escape
for your life
Prayer
Help me Oh Lord to heed
and follow the Angel's leading men out of the doomed city of today's world to
your heavenly city of salvation through Jesus Christ, Amen.
Memory Verse Gen. 19: 17
"And it came to pass,
when they (the Angels) had brought forth them (Lot, his wife and his two virgin
daughters) abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life, look not behind thee,
neither stay thou in all the plain, escape to the mountain lest thou be
consumed."
