"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 19 September 2011"
Today's Bible Verse: Revelation 20:15 "And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire."
The Scripture never refer to death as the mere cessation of life, but instead as the unnatural separation of something from that to which it belongs. Therefore, a body without the spirit suffers physical death. The expression second death defines the separation of man from God.
Human consciousness is conveyed in the Biblical description of second death, suggesting that the beast and false prophet will both remain alive for a thousand years after being cast into the lake of fire. When a person is saved, he or she has passed from death to life, and can be assured he or she will never come into condemnation.
Saving faith brings the believer into a relationship with God through Jesus Christ His Son, whose death is credited as payment for our sins. Thus when we are saved our names are written in the "Book of Life" by faith not by works. All others will be judged on the basis of "what they have done."
On that basis, every human being falls short of God's Glory and are revealed to be sinners, guilty, and meriting the punishment that God as Judge will someday mete out at the Great White Throne Judgment. Hebrews 9:27 reminds us that "it is appointed for men to die once , but after this the judgment." The second death is not biological for the unbeliever but the eternal state of being lost. It is "death" in that it involves permanent separation from God and that punishment is to be casted in the Lake of Fire for all eternity.
Only those whose names are written in the "Book of Life will escape the lake of fire. The rejection of the eternal gospel results in eternal condemnation. God gives us two choices to make in our life's. You can choose either what I call A or D. A being "Accept" and have your name written in the Lamb's Book of Life and Live forever with Jesus our Lord and Savior or D for "Deny" and stand before God and have Him as your Creator look you right in the eye and say to you, "Depart from me for I never knew you" and be casted into the Lake of Fire that was created for the Devil and his angels, but all non-believers will go to as well because they hardened there hearts to the free gift of salvation and saving grace that was there's just by accepting it and trusting in Jesus Christ as there Lord and Savior.
Today's Hymn: "Anywhere With Jesus"
Anywhere with Jesus, over land and sea, Telling souls in darkness of salvation free
Ready as He summons me to go or stay, Anywhere with Jesus when He points the way
Anywhere, anywhere! Fear I cannot know, Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, today Lord I come before you asking that if there is anyone who is reading this writing today, who has not asked you into the life's, and who have not received the free gift of Salvation which we receive once we have accepted You into our lives, and who have not experienced the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit, and whose names are not written in Your Book of Life, I humbly ask that the heart the Holy Spirit is speaking to right now, that they not hardened their hearts, but open them, and receive the peace that passes all understanding, and experience the true joys of life that they will experience in this life, and the life to come in the eternal presence of Jesus, who is the SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY and FOREVER, and who is, and will always be, the Light of the World.
Amen
Today's Biblical Truth: "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." Matthew 7:13,14
