ANOTHER NEW YEAR, ANOTHER PREDICTION
Don't you just hate listening to the end of the year prophets telling you what to expect this next year. Well let me give you a prophecy you can believe. You will have more of the same with one notable exception, the vastly increased number of political ads. I predict the smear campaigns will be worse than ever, watch for some major mudslinging with an occasional ounce of truth. The truth will be of course pounced upon by the doubters, the critics, and anyone opposed to the truth.
Now for the big question, "What are you going to do with this new year?" Well if you think that you can handle it alone, think again. If you think the government can take care of you, they're not! If you are looking for answers as to how you should handle your immediate future, you're close. The main thing to take care of right away is not this present time or the next year, but your eternity. Get that right and everything else will become easier to handle.
Okay, how do I take care of my eternity? As well you should ask. The Bible teaches us that "it is appointed unto man once to die and than the judgement." Did that say Judgement? Why yes it did. We are to be judged by God whose judgement is not swayed by mans interpretation of the law, nor by any other means. Gods Judgement is true. Lets facfe it, its his universe, its his rules. We have only one hope and that is Jesus the Christ the Son of the living God. You see God's rules are black and white, ther is no grey areas, no loopholes, and only one get out of jail free card.
God gave us a way out, he gave us his son. Jesus took our punishment for our sins, he went through our judgement, and what he asks us to do is really quite simple, He asks us to believe in him as our Lord and Saviour. This is where I refer you to the How To BE Saved section of this website. Its not rocket science he made it pretty easy, Admit you are a sinner,(I know I am) Believe that Jesus is God's Son, and Commit your life to Jesus. It's as easy as A B C.
You want to know your future, it is eternal. The final decision is yours, all I can do is give you the information what you do with it is up to you.
I pray that you have a joy filled New Year. God Bless
