Sobering!!! W. V. Grant wrote, “How to be lost without committing sin.” Hebrews 2:3 says “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation…” “This did not say, “How shall we escape” if we are a liar, murderer, gambler, bank robber, horse thief, or an adulterer. This said “How shall we escape if we neglect…” You don’t need to steal, gamble, or lie. Just neglect and there is no way for you to enter the gates of that city. Don’t fool yourself!” This little book of 48 pages would be worth reading, seeing we are on the threshold of the coming of the Lord, if you have been neglecting, obeying the word of God.

Having read brother Hanks post “The third temple and the coming of the Lord” several things tell us, Jesus coming is truly at the door. Consider for yourself right now, 1. “The government has shifted funds from other accounts for the purpose of preparing for the purification rituals and possibly the third temple. 2. Two weeks ago, a group of Jews from the tribe of Levi, and the priestly family set apart by Moses, enacted a practice run of the original ceremony! 3. The oldest of the red heifers is just months away from being old enough to sacrifice for the purification ceremony. 4. Kobi Mamo, CEO of Ancient Shiloh said, “We are yearning for the temple, and suddenly a red heifer is here, and we know what that means. Something is about to happen.”) Oh, that the church knew what time it was. (Rom.13:11) Having listened to the prophets God raised up for the past 60 years or more, the temple cannot be built until the church has been taken out. Did you hear what he said, they believe something is about to happen, yes, the rapture of the church, and many are neglecting (which means to be careless, make light) clearly is Laodicea.

If you have ever prayed and fasted for your loved ones and compelled them to examine themselves as 2Cor.13:5 says now is the time. Now is the time to make your calling and election sure. I can’t speak for others but after 53 years of searching the scriptures those who are lukewarm will be spued out of the Lord’s mouth into the horrible tribulation period. It’s true I can’t judge your heart only God can do that, yet Jesus said ye shall know them by the fruit they bear. If I was negligent, in anything that you know you ought to be doing, I’d repent and ask Jesus to give you the want too to serve Him in a life of obedience.

W. V. Grant said “Many people seem to think just because they do not commit sin or if they are not guilty of the sin of transgression they are not sinners, but you can be guilty of the sin of disobedience and be a sinner, and be lost. There is no way for you to go to heaven if you are disobeying God. If you can’t obey God here, how can we obey God there. I never thought I would have seen this, in our day, when the signs are everywhere pointing to, that any day now Jesus is coming for his bride, to whom he said Luke 21:36 “to watch and pray that ye may be account worthy to escape all these things” that so many would be so careless and take so lightly the Kings’ invitation to the marriage supper.

It seems that the church world has brought into the farce doctrine, of once saved always saved, overlooking all the warnings, that clearly teach conditions. Oh Lord, awaken your church that causes her to shake itself from the negligence, of reading your word, praying, working, gathering into the house of God, studying the word, so they can give and answer to those who ask for a reason of the hope that lies within us.

Oh Lord, shake us out of the slumber and sleep, for truly the bridegroom cometh. Oh, Lord, fill my vessel full of oil. Don’t let me be one of those foolish virgins.

Thank you, Jesus. Maranatha!!!!!
