“You Still Don’t Get It!”

By Lou K Coleman

Thinking you got all the time in the world to get your act together. Well, you don’t! If Jesus came on the scene saying, “Repent for the Kingdom of God is at Hand” why would you think that you got all the time in the world to get your act together? I tell you; the times of ignorance God overlooked, but now He commands all people everywhere to repent…” [Acts 17:30-31]. Don’t be foolish, repent before it is too late, because contempt against the Lord is a very serious verdict. The consequences are eternal and will not be reversed.

So repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin. For why should you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord. Therefore, turn and live! [Ezekiel 18:30-32]. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” [Romans 6:23].

Then I heard a loud voice say, Court is now in session! And the Almighty, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, the Prince of Peace, the Judge, God the Father steps up to the throne. Stunned silence fills the courtroom. Mouths are agape. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. The trials begin. The testimony of the witnesses is clear and irrefutable. You are found guilty on all charges. You are sentenced to everlasting punishment. [Revelation 21:12-15]. Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. [Matthew 25:41]. Bailiff, take them away! Cast the worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place where there are weeping and gnashing of teeth. [Matthew 25:30] I tell you, it would have been better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell to the unquenchable fire, where the worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched. [Mark 9:43,48].

Court is now adjourned.

The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried, and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side. And he called out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.’” [Luke 16:22-24]

And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink the wine of God’s wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name. [Revelation 14:9-11].

I tell you, still don’t get it, wisdom is the principal thing; therefore, get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. [Proverbs 4:7].
