Yesterday we considered the resurrection in relation to the believer,but what about the unbeliever?, well it is in the book of Daniel ,where we read in 12v3/Many who have been long dead and buried will wake up,some to eternal life,others to eternal shame/ In Revelation 20 we read of the great white throne when all will be judged,this is not a judgement of the believer,but the unbeliever,their lives will be weighed in the balance and found wanting.They will be condemned to an eternal existence without mercy,and love, in that place called the lake of fire.Matthew 25v 46,reads, /And these shall go away into everlasting punishment/,the soul is eternal,and will live eternally,for the unsaved that means an eternity ,in hell.The question one really needs to ask oneself is where shall I spend eternity?the answer is this,in hell,if I have not trusted Jesus as my Saviour. The reason Jesus came and died, was for the purpose of saving people from such an awful fate,as we are reminded continually in the Bible. Jesus is a Saviour,He shall save His people from their sin [Matthew 1 v21]. The consequence of unforgiven sin,is severe,God must judge sin, must,he cannot overlook sin,cannot ignore it,were sin remains,unforgiven it must be judged,must. But God who is loving desires that all may be saved, has provided a way of escape,and unless we take it ,we will be judged ,and condemned to a lost eternity.But the good news is this,that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son,that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. [John 3 v16 ]
A prayer...../ Dear God we thank You for Your love in sending Jesus ,and that through Him we can be saved Amen .
