Funny thing, it is not by my power’s of perceptive analysis or potency at prediction and vision through which I warn the world to “make straight our path for the kingdom of God is coming”.  Perhaps if I were wearing a nice tweed jacket and claiming to be a prophet or discussing Donald Trump then I would enter the realm of respectability or entertainment and they may listen.  Noah warned everyone around him for 120 years and all they could do is tell him he was crazy.  Jeremiah warned the people for forty years and they threw him into a muddy cistern to die alone.  Maybe if they weren’t real prophets and just wrote books or appeared on talk shows and make local book signing events their objective then people would have been  saved having listened to their cries for repentance?

The Lord’s Word tells us emphatically several things, one, all have fallen short of the glory of God, two, the wages of the fall from grace, our sin, is that we earn death. and finally three, none have to pay that debt if they will just surrender to God in belief and receive the gift of forgiveness and salvation through Jesus Christ.  Sorry it doesn’t get any simpler than that message, yet few will listen and most are hesitating thinking that they have unlimited days and days of life through which to put off that decision.  Now, someone told me that I needed to stop being self righteous this week when I told them this story.  I shook my head, not because I didn’t understand, but because I knew that they didn’t.  I am sorry that people will not accept God’s offer of saving Grace, but let us be honest, they didn’t listen to Noah, or Jeremiah and the Bible says that over two hundred million men will march to the valley of Jezreel to fight Jesus when He comes.  Doesn’t look like there is much appetite for prophecy, unless of course it whispers some mystic vision similar to spells of magic that give people the woo woo feeling they desperately need to be entertained.

Those who have bitten and tasted of this false religion of evolution please take a moment and look at the same behaviors by man throughout our shared history regarding the Creator.  Transhumanist’s absent the fossil record to prove something so far fetched in its founding that even its inventor shot holes in his own theory, they will now try to force that evolution through human augmentation, gene manipulation, colliding atoms and socially engineering society through information technology in tandem with pharmakoenetics.  When will we if ever see that these are the same failed actions and deceptions of the fallen throughout history to favor man’s sinful attempt to escape the coming judgment that God promises every man?  Denying our origin or becoming falsely immortal through reviving zombies, uploading our memories to AI robots or perhaps manipulating the genes to inhibit the aging process are ineffective measures to prohibit the inevitable meeting we all have coming with a Holy and Righteous God in Judgment.

Let’s say for a moment I desperately did not want this to be the truth and tried my hardest to convince you that you could free wheel yourself beyond God’s promised outcome’s.  Would that transform the truth of His coming judgment even one iota.  Just as Jonah tried to escape God by turning away and running from Him, which is the message He promised this wicked generation, it is the largest collective and individual fool’s errand of man’s existence.  Almighty God created us, can destroy us or condemn that immortal component of our souls to a void of eternal punishment and we somehow have convinced ourselves of the power to avoid such an end.  God told me to Love you the way that I want to be loved and I would want my Brother to warn me of the coming judgment of all humanity and the means to escape it.  But first and foremost, God has told us what is coming and provided a means to avoid that meeting and achieve something we all want in the process, eternal life with God in a state called Heaven.  He commands me to tell you that you might not have excuse when you meet Him and that I might be found a dutiful son having been obedient to His commands.  I would honesty risk being a disobedient Son and suffering the judgment of God if that would save you from the judgment, but it won’t.

So I know they didn’t listen to Noah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, David, Isaiah and slew many of those sent to them with this same loving message, but I implore you to listen to this poor, under educated, funny looking, American goofball offering the same message of salvation and hope prior to God’s Inevitable Judgment upon us all.  Please won’t you consider surrendering to God and ending the war between you.  Believe on the gift of Grace found only in relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, that you too might escape the immutable, unchangeable Hand of Judgment meant for this disobedient world.  I love you too much not to tell you, prayerfully that somehow His spirit might reach you in your dissenting judgment before His is Here.  In Jesus’ name I pray.
