DON’T SEEK TO GO TO HEAVEN ALONE

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: DON’T SEEK TO GO TO HEAVEN ALONE.  

TEXT: LUKE 13:22-24 

THURSDAY OCTOBER 13TH

Key verse: Proverbs 11:30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls are wise. 
In our text today, Jesus admonishes us to strive when it comes to the issue of heaven but come to think of it; are we going to heaven alone? Did Jesus die for us alone? Why shouldn’t we be concerned indeed? Why is the entire world perishing around us? When are we going to awake to the reality that our relations are not going to heaven because their names are not in the book of life? We are just seeing them on earth. 
When are you going to become conscious of the fact that your colleagues in your workplace are just there in the shadows of today and that in a little while eternity shall envelop them in the torments of hellfire? When are you going to awake to the reality that all these people you meet in the market are like doomed people waiting to be pushed into the abyss? Arise in compassion, in passion for the souls of men, and get them saved in Christ. Come on! Are you going to heaven alone? Then why are you not waking up to make sure you cry and cry to God for the perishing souls of men, women youths, and children?
Jude 22-23 22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
God wants us to awake to real passion as Paul: “For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel!” 1 Corinthians 9:16. As a child of God, do you know that woe is unto you if you preach not the gospel? Let me tell you, Mordecai told Esther (paraphrased) “Esther, what do you mean? We are perishing here and you are sitting at ease in the King's palace thinking that you’re a queen and that the king cannot permit you to be killed? Are you thinking that you are going to be saved; that if we all die you will remain? God forbid! Esther 4:13-14

Thought for the day: Work hard to carry others along with you to heaven.

Song for the day: Must I go empty-handed … 

Bible reading for the day: 
Isaiah 50-52; 1Thessalonians 1 #Horemow.

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
