Shalom! May the name of our Lord Jesus Christ be forever praised! Welcome to this Bible study by the grace the Lord has given us. The Bible says in Galatians 1:7-9: “…but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!” (Galatians 1:7–9, NIV) These are the words of the Apostle Paul, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and sealed for our instruction and warning across all generations. These are shocking words to find in the New Testament—but they are there for a reason! There is a great danger in intentionally altering the Gospel of Jesus Christ—whether to gain popularity, attract followers, or seek approval. Preaching another gospel is essentially adding to God’s Word, which the Bible strongly condemns. Revelation 22:18“I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll.” When the Bible clearly teaches that the sexually immoral, idolaters, and drunkards will not inherit the Kingdom of God, and someone says, “Don’t judge!” or “That’s not what it means,” or even, “It’s okay to drink alcohol moderately,”—they are preaching a different gospel, and according to Scripture, they are under a curse. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10“Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with mennor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” If the Bible says in the New Testament that women should dress modestly, not with elaborate hairstyles or expensive clothes, and someone responds, “God doesn’t look at outward appearance, He only looks at the heart”—this is not a biblical statement. It cannot be found anywhere in Scripture. You heard it from someone who doesn’t know the Word, and you repeated it without checking its source. This too is preaching a false gospel. 1 Timothy 2:9–10“I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.” Saying “God only looks at the heart” while disregarding biblical commands on modesty is dangerous. You’re not being judged by men—but by the Word of God itself, which says you are cursed for preaching a different gospel. The Bible also says: Mark 16:16“Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.” Yet some people say, “Baptism isn’t really necessary,” or “It’s just symbolic.” This too is a false gospel—a gospel of curse. Maybe you didn’t know these things were wrong before, and maybe you were even preaching this false gospel without realizing it. But now that you know the truth, repent and make the devil pay for the lies he fed you for so long! Repent and get rid of your miniskirts, and any clothing that exposes your body or draws lustful attention. Stop saying “God doesn’t look at clothes.” That’s not Scripture! Burn those clothes if you have to, just as believers in Acts burned their sorcery scrolls (Acts 19:19). If you’ve been wearing wigs, makeup, lipstick, and fashion accessories that reflect worldly vanity, return to the natural state God created you in. 1 Peter 3:3–4“Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.” You have read this with your own eyes. On that Day of Judgment, you will not be able to say “I was not told” or “No one warned me.” You have been warned clearly and scripturally. If you accept this correction and repent, praise God—you’ve saved your soul. But if you reject it, it’s still your choice, because the Gospel is not forced on anyone. But be consistent. If you’ve decided to reject God’s Word, then go all in: if you want to wear revealing clothes, wear the shortest ones; if you want to wear makeup, use the brightest and most worldly products—because if you’re going to hell, don’t let one single small miniskirt or light makeup be the reason. Go big in sin, if you’ve chosen that path, because whether you sin a little or a lot, without repentance you are condemned. Revelation 22:10–13“Then he told me, ‘Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is near.Let the one who does wrong continue to do wrong; let the vile person continue to be vile; let the one who does right continue to do right; and let the holy person continue to be holy.’Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done.I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.” The Lord bless you. Maranatha — The Lord is coming!
The way God ministers to us is often different from what we expect. We often look for God’s help to come from heaven in grand and spectacular ways—but God often chooses the lowly and despised places to reveal His power. When we ask God for something, we must let go of the mindset that His answer will always come from extraordinary means. Yes, the outcome might be great, but the source may be completely unexpected. Consider Naaman, the commander of the army of Aram (Syria). He was a great and honorable man, yet he was afflicted with leprosy for many years. One day, he heard of the prophet Elisha in Israel and decided to seek healing. But the way Elisha instructed him to receive his healing shocked him—it was not what he expected. Let’s read: 2 Kings 5:9–14 (NIV)9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots and stopped at the door of Elisha’s house.10 Elisha sent a messenger to say to him, “Go, wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored and you will be cleansed.”11 But Naaman went away angry and said, “I thought that he would surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, wave his hand over the spot and cure me of my leprosy.12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn’t I wash in them and be cleansed?” So he turned and went off in a rage.13 Naaman’s servants went to him and said, “My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more, then, when he tells you, ‘Wash and be cleansed’!”14 So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean like that of a young boy. Many people today are like Naaman. They go to God with serious needs—illness, life problems, bondage—but when God gives simple instructions for healing or breakthrough, they dismiss or ignore them. For example, the Bible clearly teaches that every believer should be baptized by full immersion in water for the forgiveness of sins: Acts 2:38 – “Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’” Yet many give excuses: “Baptism doesn’t save.” “It’s just symbolic.” “My church teaches differently.” “Any kind of baptism is okay—sprinkling or immersion.” Still, these same people spend hours swimming at the beach or relaxing in pools—but won’t enter water once for the purpose of baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus. What spirit is truly influencing them? And often, the same people claim to be saved and to have walked with Christ for many years. But Jesus gave clear commands, and we should not take them lightly. Baptism may not mean much to you, but it meant everything to Jesus who commanded it. You may expect someone to lay hands on you or to give you holy oil, but the Lord says, “Go into the water and you’ll be healed.” You may think God will ask you to fast for 40 days or give large offerings, but instead, He gives you simple acts of obedience like washing the feet of the saints, and He promises great rewards through them. John 13:14–1714 “Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.15 I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.16 Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.17 Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.” You may see yourself as too important to wash someone else’s feet, but Jesus, who was God in the flesh, did it. So who are we to say, “I can’t do that”? If you reject God’s basic instructions, how can you expect Him to answer your prayers in the way you desire? People expect God to work through anointing oil, laying on of hands, or fasting—but often ignore the clear, simple commands of the Lord. Just like Naaman, many want miracles on their terms—not God’s. The Jews expected the Messiah to come as a great warrior king, overthrowing the Romans and establishing a powerful kingdom. But when Jesus came as a humble man, born in a poor family, preaching love and dying on a cross, they missed Him completely. In the same way, if you want God to minister to you, you must humble yourself. True humility means obeying God’s simple instructions, even when they seem foolish or unimportant to human reasoning. Don’t see yourself as “too spiritual” or “too advanced” to obey God’s Word. Don’t measure truth by your church or denomination—measure everything by Scripture. That’s how you’ll know if the Holy Spirit is still active in your life—if you are willing to obey all His commands as revealed in the Bible.

1 Kings 21:1–4 (NKJV) “And it came to pass after these things that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard which was in Jezreel, next to the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.So Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, ‘Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a vegetable garden, because it is near, next to my house; and for it I will give you a vineyard better than it. Or, if it seems good to you, I will give you its worth in money.’But Naboth said to Ahab, ‘The Lord forbid that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you!’So Ahab went into his house sullen and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, ‘I will not give the inheritance of my fathers to you.’ And he lay down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no food.” The Law of Inheritance In the Old Covenant, it was strictly forbidden to sell or permanently give away ancestral land. While other possessions could be sold, family land was sacred. It was not simply property—it was a God-given inheritance. The law says: Leviticus 25:23 (NKJV) “The land shall not be sold permanently, for the land is Mine; for you are strangers and sojourners with Me.” This explains why Naboth refused King Ahab’s seemingly generous offer. Even though he could have gained wealth, prestige, and security, Naboth knew that the inheritance entrusted to him by his fathers was not for sale. The Value of the Vineyard Naboth’s vineyard was no ordinary land—it was right next to the king’s palace, making it highly valuable. If Naboth were greedy, he could have sold it for a fortune, bought many other vineyards, and secured a luxurious life for himself and his family. But he understood a divine principle: An inheritance is not measured in money—it is a covenant trust. Naboth chose to obey God rather than please a king. He was ready to die rather than hand over his inheritance. And indeed, Jezebel’s plot led to Naboth’s unjust death, simply because he stood firm for God’s law (1 Kings 21:5–16). A Lesson for Believers Today The Bible tells us these things were written as examples for us: 1 Corinthians 10:11 (NKJV) “Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.” As believers in Christ, we too have received a priceless inheritance. It is not vineyards or earthly land but eternal life in Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 1:3–5 (NKJV) “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.” This inheritance was first handed down to us through the Apostles, our fathers in the faith. They too, like Naboth, refused to “sell” the inheritance of Christ—even when it cost them their lives. Do Not Sell Your Inheritance Sadly, many Christians today treat their heavenly inheritance carelessly. Some are willing to give it up for the sake of: Wealth and material possessions, Family pressure, A relationship, Popularity, Work or career, Or even temporary pleasures of sin. But Scripture warns us: Jude 1:3 (NKJV) “…I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.” Our inheritance in Christ is given once for all. If you sell it away by turning from the faith, there may not be another chance to regain it. Just as land once sold in Naboth’s day became another man’s possession, so too if we abandon Christ, we risk eternal loss. Jesus’ Warning Christ Himself warned: Mark 8:35–38 (NKJV) “For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.” Like Naboth, we must stand firm. The devil still whispers, “Give me your inheritance. Sell me your vineyard.” But a true child of God must boldly answer: “God forbid that I should give away the inheritance of my Fathers!” Final Call Do not trade eternal life for temporary pleasure. Do not exchange Christ for worldly gain. Now is the time to guard your inheritance in Christ. 2 Corinthians 6:2 (NKJV) “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” Take up your cross, follow Jesus, and preserve your inheritance unto eternal glory. ✝️ May the Lord bless you as you keep watch over your inheritance in Christ.
Luke 14:25-33 (NIV) “Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said:‘If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple. And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it? For if you lay the foundation and are not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule you, saying, “This person began to build and wasn’t able to finish.”Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Won’t he first sit down and consider whether he is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand? If he is not able, he will send a delegation while the other is still a long way off and will ask for terms of peace.*In the same way, those of you who do not give up everything you have cannot be my disciples.'” The Cost of Discipleship: A Call to Radical Commitment When Jesus said in verse 26 that anyone who does not “hate” their father, mother, wife, children, siblings—even their own life—cannot be His disciple, He was not commanding us to sinfully despise our loved ones. God is love (1 John 4:8) and calls us to honor our parents (Exodus 20:12). So what does Jesus mean? This “hatred” is not emotional hostility but a matter of priority. It means loving Jesus so deeply and supremely that even our closest earthly relationships pale in comparison. It’s about rejecting any loyalty that competes with obedience to Christ. “Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.”— Matthew 10:37 Rejecting Ungodly Demands for the Sake of Christ If your father tells you to visit witch doctors, or your mother urges you to sell your body for money, or your spouse pressures you into sin—must refuse. You must courageously say, “I am a Christian. I follow Jesus, and I cannot disobey Him.” “We must obey God rather than human beings!”— Acts 5:29 In such cases, loyalty to Christ must outweigh even family expectations. If your spouse insists on ungodly practices and refuses to live in peace, the Bible allows separation: “But if the unbelieving depart, let them depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.”— 1 Corinthians 7:15 (KJV) A True Story of Compromise A man once shared that he and his fiancée had been walking faithfully in the Lord. But when it came time for marriage introductions, the man’s mother said, “If you do not abandon this salvation, I am no longer your mother and I will curse you.” Out of fear and misplaced love for his mother, he gave up his salvation and convinced his wife to do the same. The result? He fell into deep sin and worldliness—worse than before. Jesus is clear: such people are unfit for His Kingdom. He wasn’t joking when He said, “You cannot be my disciple unless you forsake everything” (Luke 14:33). Forsaking Everything Means Letting Go—From the Heart To forsake all doesn’t just mean physically giving things away; it means letting go from the heart. You may still own possessions, but they no longer own you. Whether you have them or not, it makes no difference. “Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.”— Colossians 3:2 If You Were Rich… To forsake wealth means that even if you lose it all while following Jesus, you remain joyful and content. Your treasure is now in Christ, not in possessions. You don’t follow Jesus for material gain, or so He will protect your wealth. You follow Him because your heart is filled with His love—a love you can’t even explain. If You Were Poor… Forsaking poverty means not using Jesus as a way out of financial lack. Don’t follow Christ just because you want a car, status, or revenge against your enemies. Deny self first. Let Jesus be your portion. Even if you remain financially poor for years, but your relationship with Christ deepens, that’s what matters. “If riches increase, do not set your heart on them.”— Psalm 62:10 Just like Job said: “If I have rejoiced over my great wealth, the fortune my hands had gained… then these also would be sins to be judged, for I would have been unfaithful to God on high.”— Job 31:25-28 (paraphrased) After Forsaking All, Be Ready for Rejection Jesus warned that following Him means being hated, rejected, misunderstood, and mocked. He didn’t sugarcoat it. So before you build this spiritual “tower,” count the cost! You might face: Years of loneliness Family rejection Long seasons of financial struggle Being called foolish or brainwashed Still, do not be discouraged. If you know you’re not ready for these sacrifices, then make peace now rather than begin and fail later. “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower… will he not first sit down and estimate the cost?”— Luke 14:28 Jesus Came to Bring Division, Not Just Peace “Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.”— Luke 12:51-53 True discipleship divides households. Parents and children, in-laws, siblings—all may be split over your decision to follow Jesus. Have You Taken Up Your Cross? Ask yourself: Have I denied myself? Am I carrying my cross? Have I left everything for Jesus? Know this: such people are not forgotten. They are taken to deeper levels of intimacy with Christ and receive a great reward: “Peter answered him, ‘We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?’Jesus said to them… ‘Everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.’”— Matthew 19:27-30 May the Lord Bless You Richly.

– A SPIRITUAL WARNING Dreaming about losing teeth is a common experience for many people. If you find yourself repeatedly having this dream, take it as a sign that God is trying to communicate something important to you. The Significance of Teeth in the Physical and Spiritual Realm Teeth play a vital role in our daily lives. Their primary functions are: Chewing food – allowing us to digest and absorb nutrients. Biting – providing the ability to defend ourselves or take hold of something. Speaking – without teeth, our speech is unclear and difficult to understand. Now, imagine if you lost all your teeth—you would struggle to eat, bite, or even speak properly. That is why, when people wake up from a dream where their teeth have fallen out, they feel relieved that it was only a dream. This reaction shows how valuable teeth are in our lives. However, losing teeth in a dream can have a deeper, spiritual meaning. It may indicate that you are at risk of losing your spiritual strength, discernment, or authority. Spiritual Meaning of Losing Teeth in a Dream When God allows you to see such a dream, He may be warning you that you are in danger of losing your spiritual teeth—your ability to understand spiritual matters, fight spiritual battles, and speak with authority in prayer. If you are not yet saved, this is a call to repentance. God is urging you to turn away from sin and seek salvation through Jesus Christ. If your spiritual teeth are lost, it may be too late to regain them. If you are already in Christ but are having this dream, God may be showing you that you are losing your sharpness in faith. You may be compromising with sin, neglecting prayer, or becoming spiritually weak. Biblical Insight on Losing Spiritual Authority The Bible uses teeth symbolically in several places to represent strength, power, and judgment. Losing teeth can signify losing power and influence in the spiritual realm. 1. Losing Spiritual Discernment and Power Psalm 58:3-7 (NIV):“Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies. Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears, that will not heed the tune of the charmer, however skillful the enchanter may be. Break the teeth in their mouths, O God; LORD, tear out the fangs of those lions! Let them vanish like water that flows away; when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short.” In this passage, teeth symbolize power and influence. When God removes someone’s teeth, it means they are rendered powerless, unable to act effectively. If you are dreaming of losing teeth, ask yourself—are you losing your spiritual authority because of sin, compromise, or neglect of God’s Word? 2. The Danger of Becoming a Mute Watchman Isaiah 56:10-12 (NIV):“Israel’s watchmen are blind, they all lack knowledge; they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they lie around and dream, they love to sleep. They are dogs with mighty appetites; they never have enough. They are shepherds who lack understanding; they all turn to their own way, they seek their own gain. ‘Come,’ each one cries, ‘let me get wine! Let us drink our fill of beer! And tomorrow will be like today, or even far better.’” A watchman is someone called to warn others and guard against spiritual danger. If you are dreaming of losing teeth, it could mean that you are losing your voice as a spiritual watchman—you are no longer standing boldly for truth, rebuking sin, or warning others about God’s coming judgment. What Should You Do? Examine Your Spiritual Life – Are you compromising your faith? Have you become spiritually lazy? Are you allowing sin to dull your discernment? Repent and Return to God – If God is warning you, do not ignore His voice. Confess your sins and turn back to Him. Strengthen Your Spiritual Teeth – Just as strong teeth require good nutrition, your spiritual teeth need the nourishment of God’s Word, prayer, and obedience. Take Authority in Christ – Jesus has given believers the power to crush the enemy’s schemes (Luke 10:19). Do not let the enemy weaken you through sin or complacency. Conclusion – Be Ready for Christ’s Return We are living in the last days. The rapture of the church is near, and God is calling His people to wake up, repent, and stand firm. Do not lose your spiritual teeth—your ability to discern, fight, and speak boldly in faith. May the Lord strengthen and bless you.
Shalom, servant of God. Welcome, let us study the Bible together. There are those who think that salvation is not possible in this world—but let me tell you, salvation is here and now. Heaven is not where salvation starts, but the result of having already been saved while on earth. The Bible says: “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. As it was in the days of Lot… it will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.”— Luke 17:26, 28, 30 (NIV) So if we study what happened shortly before those two major events—the Flood in Noah’s day and the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in Lot’s time—we can understand what things will look like just before the return of Christ. One unique thing we can observe before fire fell on Sodom and Gomorrah is how people were offered a chance to be saved. While many lessons can be drawn from both stories, today we will focus on this one point. Salvation Before Judgment Let’s read what the Bible says: Genesis 19:12-15 (NKJV)Then the men said to Lot, “Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city—take them out of this place!For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the LORD, and the LORD has sent us to destroy it.”So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, “Get up, get out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city!” But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.When the morning dawned, the angels urged Lot to hurry, saying, “Arise, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the punishment of the city.” We learn that even after judgment had been declared, there was still a brief window of mercy. Lot was sent to tell his family to flee. If they had believed him, perhaps each one of them would have gone to warn others—and many could have been saved. But sadly, they mocked the warning. Even that small door of grace was ignored, and so the city was destroyed. This reflects what Jesus said: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction… But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”— Matthew 7:13–14 (NIV) Noah’s Ark – Another Picture of Salvation Let’s also consider Noah. He too did not enter the ark alone: Genesis 7:1 (NKJV)Then the LORD said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation.” Genesis 7:7 (NKJV)So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood. Noah must have preached the warning of coming judgment to others—he is called a “preacher of righteousness” (2 Peter 2:5)—but people did not take him seriously, just as they did not listen to Lot. Only his family believed and entered the ark. Even among Noah’s family, they were not perfect. After the Flood, we see that Ham acted inappropriately toward his father’s nakedness (Genesis 9:22–25). This shows us that salvation wasn’t based on their perfection, but their obedience to the message. This is a powerful picture of the gospel: Salvation is not earned by being good enough. It is received through faith and obedience to God’s warning. “By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household.”— Hebrews 11:7 (NKJV) Judgment Is Declared – Flee to Christ! Once judgment has been declared, you can no longer plead for God to change His mind—the only thing left is to obey His call and flee from destruction. That’s what we see in both stories. The people didn’t have time to “clean themselves up” before entering the ark or fleeing the city. The call was urgent and immediate. It is the same with the gospel today: “Flee from the coming wrath!”— Luke 3:7 Jesus is our Ark—our place of refuge: “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.”— Proverbs 18:10 (NKJV) Just as Noah entered the ark and was saved before the rain fell, and Lot fled the city before fire came down, you must enter into Christ now—before judgment comes. You Don’t Need to Be Perfect to Come to Jesus You don’t need to be holy to believe in Jesus—you come as you are, and He begins the work of making you holy: “Come now, and let us reason together,” says the LORD, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.”— Isaiah 1:18 (NKJV) “While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”— Romans 5:8 (NKJV) So many people delay responding to the gospel because they think they have to “fix themselves first.” But remember, you don’t clean yourself to take a bath—you bathe in order to be clean! Have You Entered the Ark? Have you responded to the voice of the Holy Spirit, who is still speaking today? Have you separated yourself from the world and entered the Ark of Christ? “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”— Hebrews 3:15 (NIV) Judgment is coming upon the earth. God has said it, and nothing can change that now. The only thing that remains is: Will you be found in Christ or outside of Him? Two choices are before you: Stay in the world and perish. Enter into Christ and be saved. Final Word: Salvation is here, now, in this life. Heaven is the destination, but salvation starts the moment you believe in Jesus Christ, repent, and enter into the life of faith. Jesus is calling. Enter the Ark. Don’t delay. Don’t look back. “Remember Lot’s wife.” — Luke 17:32 God bless you.
