It's time to wake up!

Love is the fulfilling of the law

613 - 10 - 2

Mark 12:30–31 ESV

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

Read Matt 18:15-20

Now is the time!

Wake from sleep!

1 Corinthians 15:34 ESV

Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

Ephesians 5:14 ESV

for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

1 Thessalonians 5:6 ESV

So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober.

Salvation is nearer

what are we waiting on?

1 Corinthians 15:52 ESV

in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.

Put on the Lord Jesus Christ

+Put on Jesus

-Make no provision for the flesh

Acts 2:39–40 ESV

For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.”

Ezekiel 33:11 ESV

Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways, for why will you die, O house of Israel?

If it was true 2,000 years ago it is only more so now. It is time we awake from a collective sleep both to proclaim the gospel, and to live out the implications of it; namely grace, forgiveness, and love for all those whom the Lord has sovereignly placed in our lives.
