ONE QUESTION


Hey all You Anonymous visitors !!

So glad you visited - BUT the Big Question IS

What will you do with Jesus? 
 
Will you be able to give the correct answer at the end time?

See the prayer at the bottom of this post

Jesus Loves YOU - No matter What you have Done
Will You come to Him and Let Him Save You?
Invite Jesus into your heart today !
What will you do with Jesus? 
 
That is the ONE Question you will be asked at the End time !
Will you be able to give the correct answer?

 
We receive a monthly newsletter from our church and I share a story that spoke to me.
 
A student played high-school Football.  He was a good running back but a poor student. At graduation, he didn’t have enough credits. 
 
Because he was a great football star, the students held a rally and demanded the principal give him a diploma anyway.  They were so insistent that the principal agreed if Ace could answer one question correctly, he would give him a diploma.
The one question test was held in the auditorium and all the students packed the place. 

It was standing room only.  The principal was on the stage and told Ace to come up.  The principal held the diploma in his hand and said, “Ace if you can answer this question correctly I’ll give you your diploma.
 
Ace said he was ready and the principal asked him the question.  “Ace, how much is three times seven?”
 
Ace looked up at the ceiling and then down at his shoes, just pondering the question.
 
The other students began chanting,  “Graduate him anyway! Graduate him anyway!”
 
Then Ace held up his hand and the auditorium became silent.  He said, “I think I know the answer.  Three times seven is twenty-one.
 
A hush fell over the auditorium and the students began another chant - -
- - “Give him another chance! Give him another chance!”

I couldn’t help it – I busted out laughing.  Robert thought it was funny too!
Then I thought – Isn’t that the way it is with so many people these days.  They don’t recognize the correct answer when they hear it - - they even twist things to their own advantage and call for things to go their own stubborn way. 
 
Isaiah 5:20 Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! 
 
Malachi 2:17
You have wearied the LORD with your words. "How have we wearied him?" you ask. By saying, "All who do evil are good in the eyes of the LORD, and he is pleased with them" or "Where is the God of justice?"
 
 
Excerpt from Matthew Henry’s notes:  Those persons who call evil good, are in a woeful condition.  They set up sin, and call it good.  They are daring in their sin, and parade after their own lusts; it is in scorn that they call God the Holy One of Israel.
They prefer their own reasonings to Divine revelations; their own devices to the counsels and commands of God.  They deem it prudent and political to continue profitable sins, and to neglect self-denying duties. Their judges perverted justice. 
 
There is ONE Question we will all be asked at the end time. 

What did you do with Jesus?  Will you be able to give the correct answer?

Pray this pray now: 

"Jesus I come to you asking you to forgive my sins and show me how real you are.  I ask you to come into my heart and be my Lord and King, as I forsake all other Gods and forsake all forms of evil.  I promise to follow Jesus and get a Bible or New Testament and begin to read and study it.  I will also find a Bible believing church and begin to worship the True God with other believers.  Amen."

This was a funny story! Sadly, though, I think that many students actually do graduate without really having learned much. And wisdom? It's way more than knowledge, and it only comes from the Lord.

What have I done with Jesus? I was reminded of the scene with Jesus and the disciples. He asked them, "Who do you say I am?" Peter answered correctly, and I join him with the same answer, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God."

Praise His name for revealing Himself to my heart. My Savior, my Friend, my Life.

GOD BLESS!
