Proverbs 14:34 - “Righteousness exalts a nation,but sin is a reproach to any people.” Brought to you by BibleGateway.com. Copyright (C) ESV. All Rights Reserved.  A Storehouse of Wrath
Men try God daily.
The Apostle Paul makes it clear that there is a coming day of judgment for all men. The basis of that judgment will be the law of God - not good intentions or even feeble efforts at doing good deeds.
The question will be, "How do you measure up to the standards of God?"
Consider the Ten Commandments - do you live your life obeying them? Do you keep them occassionally, some of the time or all of the time? Many people are shocked to learn that the only way you can get to heaven by good works is by keeping all Ten Commandments all the time.
That's right - all ten - all the time.
So, how do you measure up? When men try to live by their own standards of righteousness and justice, the BIble tells us that they are actually living in rebellion to God and storing up wrath for the Day of Judgment. For a time God is extending a truce to men. God is demonstrating HIs kindness and patience with all of us. However, the day is coming when justice will be executed.
Are you ready? If not, why don't you consider what the Bible says in Acts 4:12, "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
Friend, if you have never trusted Christ as your Savior - this is the day to start!
In Christ,
Pastor Ray
