01/16/12 GET ABOARD THAT OLD GOSPEL TRAIN
Bouncy Believer waved good-bye to loved ones as he jumped on board the Good Times Express, pulling out of Decision Station.
Bouncy Believer waved good-bye to loved ones as he jumped on board the Good Times Express, pulling out of Decision Station.
The "GTE" promised fun, friends and freedom from accountability, but its destination was Corruption Chasm.
The intoxication raged as the "GTE" sped farther from the fading call of loved one who had boarded The Old Gospel Train, bound for Glory.
The deeper the "GTE" rushed into eternal darkness, the more horrific the trip became, with fewer opportunities to transfer to the The Glory Line.
One of the great losses in a wrong decision is the loss of hope and the ability to change direction.
PASSAGE and a NOTE...
Proverbs 6:12-23, New Living Translation
12 What are worthless and wicked people like? They are constant liars,
13 signaling their deceit with a wink of the eye, a nudge of the foot, or the wiggle of fingers.
14 Their perverted hearts plot evil, and they constantly stir up trouble.
15 But they will be destroyed suddenly, broken in an instant beyond all hope of healing.
16 There are six things the LORD hates— no, seven things he detests:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent,
18 a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong,
19 a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family.
20 My son, obey your father’s commands, and don’t neglect your mother’s instruction.
21 Keep their words always in your heart. Tie them around your neck.
22 When you walk, their counsel will lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up, they will advise you.
23 For their command is a lamp and their instruction a light; their corrective discipline is the way to life.
DLG note... The journey into darkness becomes more and more tumultuous and the final destination is eternal misery. There will come a time when you cannot make the change, you will not hear the voice of God. Call upon Him now, while you have the opportunity.
