Truth From Beyond the Grave

There is life!
There is death!
There is truth!
There are lies!
There is hope found only in Christ!
There is forgiveness for your sinfulness!
There was a penalty due you for your rebellion!
That penalty was death!
Because of God's great mercy, Jesus took the wrath of God which you should have received!
That man, Jesus Christ, took your punishment so that you might be reconciled to a Holy God.
There was and is no other way!
You except or deny this truth!
That according to God, Jesus was the only acceptable payment!
Repentance is necessary!
You must ask for mercy!
Mercy only Jesus can give!
Knowing that Christ died, was raised from death and sits with God to intercede for you changes your life, your heart, and your eternity!
He is our Savior, our deliverer, our hope, our Redeemer, our friend, our help, and our all in all!
Right this moment, you have a chance to ask forgiveness, while you have breath and life.
Are you sure you will have a tomorrow?

Lord, Your words cut deep! Open the eyes of the lost so that they may see Your truth. Open their rebellious hearts so they will plead for mercy. Our time is truly a vapor, teach us to use our resources to seek Your truth and to teach it so others may have eternal life thorough Christ. Amen

19 "There was a rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day.
20 And at his gate was laid a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores,
21 who desired to be fed with what fell from the rich man's table. Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried,
23 and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side.
24 And he called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.'
25 But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner bad things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish.
26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would pass from here to you may not be able, and none may cross from there to us.'
27 And he said, 'Then I beg you, father, to send him to my father's house--
28 for I have five brothers--so that he may warn them, lest they also come into this place of torment.'
29 But Abraham said, 'They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.'
30 And he said, 'No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
31 He said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone should rise from the dead.'" Luke 16
