Christ’s great warning.

Christ’s great warning 

Luke  12:5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

Beloved Brethren Christ our Master and Lord gave His followers of all ages and you in particular to fear God. 

This is because God doesn’t indulge sinners, He recompense them commensurately.

Romans  11:22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

The Holy Spirit exhort believers of all ages and you in particular to have reverential fear for God.

Hebrews  12:28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:  12:29 For our God is a consuming fire.

This godly fear will constrain us to depart from all the Bible refers to as evil, because of its avoidable painful pitiable consequences.

Job  28:28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the LORD, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

Proverbs  1:23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.  1:24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;  1:25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:  1:26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;  1:27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.  1:28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:  1:29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:  1:30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.  1:31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.  1:32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.  1:33 But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

Proverbs  3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

Proverbs  8:13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

Always remember and don’t forget our Master and Lord exhorted you to fear God and avoid eternity in hell.

Luke  12:5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

So be wise and avoid hell.

Proverbs  15:24 The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.

Let us pray.
