The Most Powerful Thing You Can Do In Life Is What You Choose.
The Most Powerful Thing You Can Do In Life Is What You Choose.
God is going to give everyone an opportunity to choose him.
- Everyone will have the opportunity to choose God.
BIBLE Also says - I place before LIFE & DEATH - BLESSING & CURSE Choose this day whom you will serve.
YOU GET WHAT YOU CHOOSE
What you choose is what you get.
Choice determines your future.
Growing up I didn’t realize my parents made my choices for me most of the time. I had the opportunity to choose God on my own.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
God withholds his second coming to give others time to know Him.
God desires for everyone to repent.
Repentance - Is a turning away in both mind and heart from sin and self to God.
God desires everyone to choose Him.
BUT GOD lets everyone make their own choice.
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Who are the people who are perishing?
Who are the people that are being saved?
The message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing.
The message of the Cross is Gods Power to those who are being saved.
God doesn’t force anyone to choose Him. HE IS GENTLE AND KIND.
Conviction
Sensitive in heart or hard in heart.
BIBLE SAYS - It’s the goodness of God that leads us to repentance.
See the goodness of God.
2 Cor 4:4
The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
Blindness that happens to the disobedient. Rebel against God and what life for themself.
Now We Know The Rapture Is Going to Happen.
- The Spirit of God is going to be taken and brought to God.
After The Rapture There is the TRIBULATION - 7 years on the earth.
The Tribulation is 7 years long.
The tribulation is the wrath of God being poured out on the earth.

The Seven Seals
Revelation 6
War, Famine

1/3 of the sea will have death (blood)
Stars falling from the sky polluting the drinking water.

No one repents to turn to God.
The Seven Bowls

1. Mark of the Beast: On the hand or the forehead - 666
Painful and ugly sores who received the mark of the beast.
Everything in the earth will be dead.
Water and drinking water will be filled with blood from all the death and murder.
The greatest earthquake the world has ever seen.
100 pounds of hail will fall everywhere.
Unbelievers will go through all this if they are still on the earth during this time.
Believers will be raptured and Gods spirit will be removed.
- Earth will be given over to total wickedness and sin.
After the Tribulation Christ Returns
Rev 19:11-16
I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war. His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.” He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:
king of kings and lord of lords.
Jesus the Rider on the White Horse is called Faithful and True.
This is where the two worlds will collide
The coming of Christ will destroy Satan and those that decided to follow the world and Satans ways.
We call this the Battle of ???
Battle of Armageddon
Do you think Satan won? NO
Rev 19:19-21
Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army. But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. The rest were killed with the sword coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.
Gathered all the people who had the mark of the beast.
Satan will be casted into the bottomless pit.
Along with Satan’s followers.
This will happen to unbelievers.
The sword kills others (unbelievers)
These are people who have totally rebelled against God.
Rejected God when God tried to reach for them numerous of times.
Rev 20:1-3
And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.

Satan Released For The Last Deception
Rev 20:7-10
When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Satan will try to deceive all the nations who have been walking with Christ.
Satan is going to try and deceive all the nations.
What is deception?
Again Satan will be Thrown into lake of fire and tormented day and night.
This will be the final judgement of Satan forever.
The Great White Throne of Judgement.
The Great White Throne of Judgement.
Rev 20:11-15
Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

POWER IN THE CROSS
Jesus tells us a parable of this:
Luke 16:19-31
“There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
“The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’
“But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’
“He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’
“Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’
“ ‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’
“He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’ ”
Let’s pray!
