Knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men… this is the same Lord Jesus that many want to see only as love and kisses; butterflies, flowers and rainbows; wealth, health and prosperity… But this is the Lord Jesus who is God over all, and who will come to lay claim all that is His own. To establish His reign upon the earth, to reward those who are His own, while punishing those who are opposed to Him. It is this knowledge that drives us to seek to persuade men, it is this consuming reality that apart from Christ Jesus, NO ONE is safe. Apart from Christ Jesus, NO ONE has life and NO ONE has hope. It is the simple fact of this truth: if we love them, we cannot be content to allow them to stand before Jesus unprepared! Especially when preparedness is so simple, so available. The fact of the matter is that Jesus provides for His own all that He requires of them. His righteousness before God is given to all those who are found in Him. His own life is given to us, His own Spirit, His own victory! Jesus has become for us LIFE! Jesus has become for us PEACE! Jesus has become for us RIGHTEOUSNESS from God Himself, and in that there remains no condemnation for those who are found in Christ Jesus… Oh, my precious child, I beg you, if you do not yet know the Lord, turn from your sin and run to Him. Turn from your hopeless pursuits and find in Him what life really is. Turn TO life rather than away from it, and find joy in the thought of His return. Be sure that He IS coming quickly!
