Remnant's Rant


 Obama's Peace Prize
 

Such recklessness by a committee whose goal is to reward those who through their accomplishments have benefited mankind, is disgusting, To give a reward for a vision instead of a working solution, ridicules the Nobel foundation and what it stands for. If they are going to an award someone for their potential and vision, then they need to give everyone a prize, for all have potential and visions.

Is. 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

The Nobel Peace Prize Committee has disgraced it’s self by rewarding non-accomplishment, they have placed what could be seen by the globalist elite as a mandate to the redistribution of wealth world wide through climate change “carbon tariff's” as well as the dividing of G_D’s Land, the division of Jerusalem, and giving sodomy as welll as terrorist Islam a new found creditability.

By doing so the Nobel committee has placed this mandate into the hands of an incompetent, impotent, ego manic whose only accomplishment thus far has been to be elected by fraud (and who bears a strong resemblance to the chia pet cast of him).

Obama joins a long list of reprobates who have received this “honor”, Yasser Arafat( a moral degenerate pagan, thief, and head of the murdering terrorist group the PLO), Jimmy Carter (an Anti-Semite secular humanist stooge for the arabs), and Al Gore (a pagan earth worshiping liar, who pimps the climate change agenda with junk science to fill his own pockets).

Is. 13:11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

One would imagine that if Alfred Nobel were alive today he might be tempted to use his invention to alter the molecules of the morons on the selection committee!

In reality is there anyone other than Jesus Christ, the Prince of peace who deserves glory?

 Whose to Blame?
 

It's not Obama's, Both Bush's, Clinton or any other Presidents fault!

Political Servants are just that, they are sworn to uphold the constitution not G_D’s Word. While many of the writers and founding fathers considered themselves Christians and imparted some ideals of the Bible into the constitution, the constitution itself is a blend of mans thoughts influenced by many Ideas. (This is leaven) As great a document as it is, it still dilutes G_D’s Word!

G_D certainly has, at times, blessed the United States of America. What have Americans done with those blessings? We pursued the “American Dream” (Idolatry) instead of allowing G_D to lead us and His plan for us. Jer. 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

We Americans rebelled, we coveted, our greed and gluttony led us into, sexual perversion, adultery (both physical and spiritual), idolatry, and the murder of our unborn. etc.. We sent our children to be educated without seeing who was teaching our children. Deut. 6:6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: Deut. 6:7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. Deut. 6:8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. Deut. 6:9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

The result of not obeying this was their indoctrination into the blasphemous ideal of Secular Humanism, which is a part of the “American Dream” (any man could grow up and become anything he wanted it only took hard work and perseverance.) The key words here are “Any Man” Not G_Dly men!

Church was reserved for Sunday unless there was a game on and when we went to church, did we check and see if what was being spoken was G_D’s Word or was it diluted with denominationalist theology, dogma masquerading as Doctrine? 2Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Did we hear sermons laced with motivational messages instead Biblical encouragement? Col. 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Brothers and Sisters the crisis of today is not the fault of Obama or other past Presidents. It’s not the republicans or the democrats, The liberal or conservatives.

The Blame lies in all of us who have chased/coveted after worldly ideals/idols and been silent or compromised when these ideals/idols did not line up with G_D’s Word and His directions for living. Jer. 34:17 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

As a nation of prosperity we are being judged for the iniquities of going from the Word of G_D to the idol of the “American Dream” allowing the aforementioned sins to become acceptable. G_D is judging us by hitting Americans where it hurts the most (our wallets). The corruption of our politicians is a result of our own corruption of G_D’s design for living. Rev. 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

The battle cry of “G_d, guns and guts kept America free” is a lie. It is G_D and His Redemptive Blood that makes all men free, if, and only if, we repent and accept this free gift and then John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

It is past time for us to get off our couches and 2Tim. 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 2Tim. 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 2Tim. 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2Tim. 4:5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 1Cor. 9:14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

Eph. 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Eph. 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Eph. 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Eph. 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Eph. 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; Eph. 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Eph. 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Eph. 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Eph. 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; Eph. 6:19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

While I do believe that we are living in the end times, and that perilous times have come. I know that G_D is in control and that the harvest is ripe. The door to the mission field is your front door, will you open it and go out, or just sit on you couch and play the blame game?

 Fallen From Heaven
 

Is. 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
Is. 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
Is. 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

I can run this world better than G_D!

Who has the right to rule?
G_D or satan?

Is. 14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
G_D’s sentence! to Lucifer and those who follow him both angels and Mankind

Matt. 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

The five “I wills” of lucifer and his fall are carried over to man in his fallen nature:

Rebellion against G_D through intellectual pride, arrogance, self will, desires of the flesh thou hast said in thine heart.

I.E. “I will/can do a better job than G_D in controlling my life”.

A created being placing himself above the Creator: Rom. 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature (Lucifer and the Fallen Nature) more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Eph. 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

We are born into or with this rebellion and remain in it until we, accept G_D’s plan of salvation through the Messiah, and repent and become ready to stop the “I wills” and let G_D rule in our lives. The beauty of obeying G_D and the horror of disobedience, is shown through out the Bible.

Strange Fire: I can worship G_D my way!

Lev. 9:23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people.
Lev. 9:24 And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces.

Lev. 10:1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not.
Lev. 10:2 And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.

G_D has set the rules and rewards for obeying Him or disobeying Him.
Worship can be done only by His rules, not what we do in disobedience/rebellion. we worship G_D His way or perish as Nadab and Abihu!

Num. 3:4 And Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, when they offered strange fire before the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the sight of Aaron their father.

They left no inheritance their line was wiped out!

Num. 26:61 And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the LORD.

King Uzziah did the same thing:

2Chr. 26:16 But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense.
2Chr. 26:17 And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him fourscore priests of the LORD, that were valiant men:
2Chr. 26:18 And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from the LORD God.
2Chr. 26:19 Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from beside the incense altar.
2Chr. 26:20 And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him, and, behold, he was leprous in his forehead, and they thrust him out from thence; yea, himself hasted also to go out, because the LORD had smitten him.
2Chr. 26:21 And Uzziah the king was a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a several house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD: and Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.

If G_D rules our lives then follow his mandates, don’t worship Him your way!

John 10:1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

1Tim. 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

Eph. 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

As the church we are mandated to either G_D or Lucifer. Again who has the right to rule?

Matt. 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Matt. 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Matt. 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

Satan/Lucifer still walks before G_D and comes and goes as he pleases. Man at this time can either accept or reject G_D’s right to rule or follow his own fallen nature.

Rev. 16:14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

Job 2:2 And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

There will be a time when He and the angels will be cast out of heaven and run wild upon the Earth

Rev. 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

John 12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
John 14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
John 16:11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

G_D provided the sacrifice Himself, Jesus paid the cost and we must choose The fallen Nature inherited from Lucifer or the gift of Salvation from G_D through repentance and the cross. There are no other choices and no other ways to redemption !

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Jesus came to

Acts 26:18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

Eph. 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Eph. 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
Eph. 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Eph. 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
Eph. 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
Eph. 2:7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
Eph. 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Eph. 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. (remember Lucifer’s “I will” boast?)

Your self-righteous works are:

Is. 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

It’s not what we see in this world through our own eyes. Elisha’s servant saw this earthly world till his eyes were opened.

2Kings 6:14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
2Kings 6:15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
2Kings 6:16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
2Kings 6:17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
2Kings 6:18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

Remember :

Eph. 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Only Jesus gives us the victory, he conquered death:

Col. 2:15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

1Pet. 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.

Don’t be seduced:

1Tim. 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

2Cor. 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
2Cor. 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
2Cor. 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

 National Service Corps Bill Clears Senate Hurdle
 

Part of the HR1388 Bill’s wording:

SEC. 1304. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.

Section 125 (42 U.S.C. 12575) is amended to read as follows:

SEC. 125. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.

(a) Prohibited Activities- A participant in an approved national service position under this subtitle may not engage in the following activities:

(1) Attempting to influence legislation.

(2) Organizing or engaging in protests, petitions, boycotts, or strikes.

(7) Engaging in religious instruction, conducting worship services, providing instruction as part of a program that includes mandatory religious instruction or worship, constructing or operating facilities devoted to religious instruction or worship, maintaining facilities primarily or inherently devoted to religious instruction or worship, or engaging in any form of religious proselytization.

Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Mark 10:14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Jer. 2:11 Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.

Obama’s Youth?

This is nothing new, Hitler had his “youth corps”, Mao had his “red guards”, why should the American Führer, Obama, miss out? Don’t be fooled, your children are being indoctrinated into a world view. Spoon fed political correctness and secular humanism. This is just another part of the plan of the G_D-less to undermine the moral values that parents have taught their children. As Hillary Clinton wrote “It takes a village to raise a child”. In reality it take a government sponsored program to raise an idiot, who becomes nothing more than a compliant worker drone. This is not just Obama, but our elected representatives who are allowing this Obomanation to become law.

[Disclaimer: this is not Scripture just relevant to the times] Woe unto you, Congressmen and Senators, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Luke 17:1 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
Luke 17:2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

Is anyone surprised that the Apostate Slick Warren minister of the church of the Higher Kumbaya is “an enthusiastic supporter of this effort”? This man hasn’t cracked a real Bible in years and teaches from the abominable paraphrase The Message.

The Bible says in Prov. 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Deut. 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
Deut. 6:6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
Deut. 6:7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Who is going to be supervising these national service corps “mandatory Volunteers (read slaves)? Activists from ACORN? Homosexual Activists, Former Terrorists, like Bill Ayers?

Matt. 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Obama’s plan is require anyone receiving school loans and others to serve at least three months as part of the brigade.

This is not the national service corps of John Kennedy, or the Peace Corps of the sixties. They were not mandatory programs. This is an indoctrination program from the pit of Hell.

 Entering The Mission Field
 

As you walk out the doors of Calvary Tri-City look up, over those doors are the words “You Are Now Entering The Mission Field”. There is no reminder that is more appropriate.

How many of us read and take to heart it’s meaning?

They are nice words, a message worth contemplating on as we go home to eat, watch the game or some other social/secular activity.

These words should be over the inside of the doors of our homes, on the sun visors of our cars.

And all too sadly in some cases on the outside of the doors going into our homes and cars.

Has your neighbor heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
Why Not? In the City it’s just a few short steps to their doors, in the country it’s just a stroll down the lane.

How about your family? Have you taught your children and your children’s children the precepts of G_D and the saving grace of Jesus Christ and Him crucified?

Why Not? Prov. 13:22 A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

Are you leaving a spiritual inheritance to your children or a material inheritance?

Why Not? Matt. 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: Matt. 6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

And more importantly have you been an example of Christ or are your children right in seeing your example and calling all Christians Hypocrites?

Your coworkers? Your friends and associates? The waitress in the donut shop or the clerk at the store register? All need to hear the good news.

It’s easy to talk with people about sports, movies, the economy, crime, wars and natural disasters.

Why should sharing the most life impacting gift ever given, be so hard? G_D’s Word Tells us that “ For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2Tim. 1:7. “So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.” Heb. 13:6

Why are we so meek, when in Christ , with His Spirit “In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.” Eph. 3:12 . That “According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.“ Phil. 1:20

It’s when we realize that we can effect more change in our homes, Neighborhoods, City’s, Counties, State, Government and the World by following and obeying what Jesus commanded us to do in Mark 16:15. The words Jesus said are clear “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” The Gospel of Jesus Christ will impact the world more than any stimulus package could hope to.

Jesus died for everyone, not just some. I at times forget that, He died for Osama bin Laden, (if he had heard and accepted the Gospel do you think that he would have founded Al Qaeda?) Jesus died for Hitler, Joseph Stalin and Barrak Obama. He died for the drug addict, the drug dealer, the prostitute and the pimp. the swindler and the thief. He died for the homosexual, the pedophile, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Rosie O’Donal, Paris Hilton and the other rich and shameless, He is Messiah to all or He is Messiah to none.

Have we forgotten we are Christ’s ambassadors? Do we think we can leave it up to a handful of missionary’s to fulfill the great commission. Supporting those brave souls called to take the message of Christ to other countries is wonderful, but it does not let us off the hook with our own mission field and our Lord’s command to preach the gospel to those within our sphere of influence. Our financial support does not give us a pass to sit back like the “frozen chosen” and let others do our job.

Those of us who have received the gift of Salvation and understand Biblical prophecy know that G_D’s Word is alive. We know that the world is in the condition it’s in due to sin. We know that we cannot through our works set up the kingdom of G_D here on earth. We know that the watered down politically correct social gospel taught by so many church pastors is meaningless. We know that the world’s condition and the falling away from G_D is right where G_D has told us it would be.

We know what is going to happen, we just don’t know the time or the day, we do however know the season. G_D’s time clock is coming to an end.

Knowing this does not let us off the hook, We are still called to “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” 2Tim. 4:2

Pastor John mentioned a few weeks ago and again last week that we who are saved 2Cor. 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 1Cor. 3:12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
1Cor. 3:13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.
1Cor. 3:14 If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
1Cor. 3:15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

The gist of this is that we all have a calling. We all have things that G_D has planned for our lives and it is up to us to search out and follow what he has called us to. We have diverse gifts of the Holy Spirit to use. How we use them, and how we perform the tasks G_D has called us for leads to the rewards each of us will receive. If we live our live in Christ as the Man given 5 talents and doubled them we will have rewards that will pass through the flame. On the other hand if we are like the man who received 1 talent and buried it most of his actions are stubble to be consumed by fire. (see Matt. 25:14-30)

My desire is to see my work pass through the flame, my fear is that when my chaff is consumed that in the flames I will see the faces of those I did not present the gospel to when I had the opportunity to and know they are in Hell.

If I present the Gospel to someone, it is then their choice to accept it or reject it, if I on the other hand, sit in my house and indulge myself, telling myself what a great christian I am for making it to church once a week, and keep my talent to myself then…………….
