Chapter 19: Myth—Sexuality Doesn’t Matter
Page 145
“And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as
crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.” Rev. 22:1
On the other hand, if you bought into the myth that you can simply
utter the words “Jesus is my Lord” without making a change in the bowels of your soul where your heart resides, guess what? Yes, it’s the lake of fire and second death for you. It is also the merciless words of Jesus you will hear as he says: “I never knew you.”
Do you want to take the chance on your deathbed to get “real” with God and Jesus? If you’ve already spent your life “named” a Christian, what makes you think you can change anything on your deathbed? You’ve had days, weeks, months and even years to demonstrate a true repentance. Yet,
you have demonstrated no repentance from your heart and have walked a life of sexual immorality. Therefore, even though you might have felt good emotionally and satisfied mentally by apostate teachings that supported your sins, you failed to gain eternal life at the end. Instead, you’ve only garnered
eternal damnation. Why? You never got His truth on human sexuality.
“Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence,
work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.” Philip. 2:12
In late August my daughter Paula and her four kids left to return to
Colorado. We shared two wonderful weeks together. Christopher, my oldest grandson, arrived a couple weeks earlier by plane. Their visit brought some life back into my house, which has seemed too quiet since my beloved wife Jackie got her wings.
Soon after her arrival, Paula told me: “I actually saw a crumb falling from the table while the kids were eating. I think I felt mom’s spiritual presence.” Imagine food crumbs falling in slow motion from the table to the
carpet in what can seem like minutes, yet just fractions of a second. I think that is what Paula saw with her eyes.
