READ: Ezekiel 3:16-21
“And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.” – Jude 23
Multitudes of non-Christians are hurtling down a broad street to Hell. They sing, dance, wine and dine. They do not give a hoot about the Gospel we preach! Many of us Christians live in our nice little world where we are obliv- ious to the reality of sinners going to Hell.
I once worked as a intern at the mortuary of the largest hospital in Ghana. I would stand at the main door of the mortuary as people brought in their loved ones who had died at home or on the street. These people were so sad and shaken. You must understand that only a few hours earlier they had been talking to a living person who was now gone forever. As I stood there, God showed me that people were dying across the city all the time. A person who has never stood at the door of a mortuary will not know how frequently people depart for eternity! The Lord spoke to me when I stood at that door. He asked, “How many of these people do you think were saved? I died for them, I gave up my life for them, but are they saved?”
Listen to me Christian friend. Many of our church bazaars, weddings, fellowships and nice choirs are not enough to win the multitudes to Christ. They do not even know that they are going to Hell. We must warn them, and pull them out of the fire. “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force” (Matthew 11:12).
