Make up your mind. I may not call you fool, nor may I act out of haste or hate when telling you the things, for you, that God has placed upon my heart. This is no game, toying with Almighty God as He were some common house cat, amused by simple things. You came to Him, drawn by an urge to be set free from bondage and sin. Why now, have you so readily forgotten the dilemma, the tragedy and the gravity of the resolution? God loves you and so do I. Not just because He commands me so but because you are loveable. Why now do you ask me to disobey the direction from my Holy God who taught me to love? You may take lightly obedience to God, but I do not share this folly. Do not ask me to remain in kinship if you intend upon forsaking those things of God for all that is worldly. For I must depart from you and allow you travel that broad path. You will not be alone for many follow the same broad road leading to destruction. I pray that there is time for you to play out this prodigal pageantry and return to His grace before the coming tribulation and judgment. If that is the case I will be at my Father’s feet to greet you home with joy in my heart and smile upon my waiting face.
If you doubt that this Holy God with who you joust demands fealty and obedience, look to HIS WORD. Read the third chapter of any book of John and see how God views belief versus obedience. Look to the Books of James and Jude, Jesus’ Brothers, as they portray the uselessness of faith without commensurate walk and the tragedy of false faith in the Church as we approach tribulation. Read what the Lord Jesus says about loving the Father being synonymous with obeying His Word. Read about the folly of a Church who fully understanding God’s Grace and Sacrifice refuses to accept that gift and be transformed to Heavenly Citizen. We live in the days preceding judgment. Should we then be so haphazard or flippant in our regard for the heraldry of God’s Prophets, who gave their lives so that we might avoid destruction? What light regard you appear to have for the preciousness of God’s commandments and grace. If I am misinformed please show me the error of my perception. But if I am correct, then beware! For you trifle with the Hand of Judgment.
My love for you does not include watching while you step off the cliff of reason, or into the spike filled pit of folly and disrepair. If you must go then go alone and I pray that your faith is real so that Almighty God will be beside you in your travails. Know this, although I enjoy your company, I serve a Holy God that I fear enough to step away from you on your current journey. My reverence for God requires that I work out my own salvation with fear and trembling. I cannot therefore continue to prattle with you as this puts me in conflict with the only thing I fear in this life or the next, God’s Judgment. I pray you “KNOW” Jesus, not just know of Jesus. I pray that you have a relationship with God that transforms your heart, writing His Word upon it for Eternity. You are not safe unless you have been filled with His Holy Spirit, without it you face the same destiny as all those who call Earth their Eternal Nationality. Make up your mind to follow God or yourself. I have already declared and pursue my choice with “ALL” my heart. I cannot divide off a small part to reside with you in your indecision and disobedience. I love you and therefore I must let you go and pray to Almighty God that you find your way back to Him, before it is too late.
Praise God in Jesus’ Name.
