There Is A Time Limit!

“Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while

He is near.” (Isaiah 55:6).

This Life Is Uncertain!

“Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to

such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and

make a profit’; whereas you do not know what will happen

tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears

for a little time and then vanishes away.” (James 4:13-14).

When the door is shut, it will not be re-opened!“Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you,

will seek to enter and will not be able. When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’” (Luke 13:24-27).
