God has a message for this world and he wants this message proclaimed. It is the message that was preached by the great prophets of the Old Testament. It is the message that was preached by Jesus Christ when he was here on this earth.

And it is the message that Jesus instructed his followers to preach to the entire world. That message is: Repent of your sins, turn away from them and turn to God! Forsake the way of
Darkness and Sin and turn to the way of Light, Life and Truth as found in Jesus Christ. If you do this there is forgiveness for you. If you do not the consequences are very dire.

Turn to God. Commit your heart and life to him. Renounce the Way of the World. Become a believer in Jesus Christ and a follower of His way. Become a Christian. Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in
me shall never die.” (John 11:25-26) and “I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6). Jesus died for our sins. By his atonement we can have life if we serve him.

Christianity is about a personal relationship with God: a relationship characterized by a love of God and the following of His way, not from fear, but from love. It is about an allegiance to God, a commitment of heart and life to him. It is about living by God’s principles and rules. It is about following in God’s way.

And what is God’s way? The Way of God is the way taught to us by Jesus Christ. It is the Way of Jesus. God’s way is the way of honesty, integrity, goodness, virtue, moral purity.

We live in a world that is deeply depraved,very immoral, terribly wicked. God’s way is a way that is diametrically opposite to the ways, outlooks and values of this world. God is a biased being. He is not tolerant of sin. He has a very strong bias against sin. He has created a hell as punishment for the sinner.

The Bible clearly states that fornicators, adulterers and homosexuals will go to hell. God’s way is a morally straight, virtuous, clean life. If moral straightness, chastity and cleanness are puritanical, then the Bible is a very puritanical book. Someone may ask, “What is sin?” The answer to that question is, “Sin is what God says is sin.”

He is our maker. He tells us how he expects us to behave. If we defy him and live however we please, it is at our own peril.We have been dully warned. He has repeatedly given mankind warning of the consequences of sin.

It is eternal hell. There will be a day of judgment when all will be judged. No one will be exempt.
John the Baptist preached a fire and brimstone message of repentance. Jesus preached the same message. We live in a world that very badly needs to listen to that message. We live in an age of great Christian apostasy. It is everywhere. True Christianity is very hard to find. Most Christianity is nominal Christianity.

People go through motions. They think they are Christians because they attend a certain church. They trust what the preacher is telling them. The true message of the Bible is rarely heard today. It is just not socially acceptable. It is not politically correct.Hence it has been altered, twisted, distorted, diluted, sugar-coated, or replaced with a completely false message just to make it attractive and popular with the masses. One finds the truth by serious readingof the Bible. That is the only way. You cannot trust man.

Most people have no convictions. On religious matters, they don’t know what to think. They are easily misled. And they are too lazy to think or act. So they go with the flow, follow the crowd. They think they can’t go wrong by following the crowd. They feel, “The majority can’t be wrong.” Well, that is a terrible mistake. That is the road to hell. The crowd is almost always wrong.
