There Is Hope!

There is HOPE.  Always has been.

In the darkest of hours, even at the brink of death, there is hope.

The first glimmer of hope was given in Genesis when GOD pronounced that the seed of the woman would be the Saviour of the world.  HIS heel would crush the head of the serpent.

When HE gave us HIS WORD HE gave us hope.  The culmination of that HOPE was in the great sacrifice when GOD'S SON showed up on earth shed HIS HOLY, SINLESS BLOOD and died for HIS people to save them from their sins.  HE rose again and sits at the right hand of THE FATHER.  HIS PROMISE to return was not empty as is ours.  HIS second coming is imminent whether it be today, next year or 100 years from now.

Are you prepared to meet GOD on HIS terms?  Have you thought about what it will take to get you to Heaven?  If you think being good will get you there, THE BIBLE says that only Salvation through the death and resurrection of the ultimate sacrifice will any of us be clean enough to stand before a HOLY GOD.  You must believe and accept HIM as your SAVIOUR.  Accept HIM as LORD over your life.

These are pretty bold statements but they do not come from me, the come from THE BIBLE.  I purposely do not quote Chapter and Verse from THE BIBLE.  I feel it is up to you to make the study your own.  Pick up that BOOK that gathers dust on the shelf or is stored in a box in the garage or is maybe hidden because you do not want anyone to find it, but cannot bring yourself to throw it away.  Then read it.  Find out for yourself why HE did everything.  The answers are in there.  Sometimes I have found them to be difficult to understand, but understanding comes with study.

THERE IS HOPE.  AS LONG AS THERE IS BREATH, THERE IS HOPE.

Shalom.  Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.
