Do not let your heart envy sinners, but be zealous for the fear of the Lord all the day. Proverbs 23:17
Do not let your heart envy sinners, but be zealous for the fear of the Lord all the day. Proverbs 23:17
The wages of sin is death as the Word states, but most ignore its warning and run headlong into sin! Jesus said to take the narrow road that leads to life and not the broad road that leads to Hell! We are all born in sin with a dark destiny awaiting us if we don't repent and make Jesus our Lord!
Being a drug addict, alcoholic, thief, or a liar is not the only thing that makes you a sinner; just rejecting the Lord Jesus and living a good and moral life will lead you into Hell. So many good upstanding people will end up lost and facing a Christless eternity by missing the words of His gospel.
Many, when asked the question, "Are you saved and going to Heaven?" I hope so, I've led a good life, and I am a good person! Being good doesn't count; making Jesus Lord and repenting of your sin is the only way that leads to eternal life in Christ!
For surely there is a hereafter, and your hope will not be cut off. Proverbs 23:18
