Persuasion-DD 6/8/2010

"Then Agrippa said unto Paul, 'Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.'" Acts 26:28


What a tragedy to be almost saved. How sad to have every opportunity to pass from death to life, only to allow distraction, unpopularity, sin or unbelief to cause us to inherit destruction.
  • Despite personal knowledge of God, Cane would not be persuaded
  • Despite 120 years of great preaching, the people of Noah's time would not be persuaded
  • Despite being delivered from their Egyptian enemy by the one true God, the golden calf worshippers would not be persuaded
  • Despite witnessing the power of God on multiple occasions, King Nebuchadnezzar would not be persuaded
  • The Sanhedrin court who had irrefutable proof that Jesus was the son of God, would not be persuaded
  • Judas, who walked with the Lord and cast out demons in his name, would not be persuaded

Beloved, having been exposed to the truth of God's word, having seen His glorious creation, having experienced His goodness and His blessings throughout your life, having had the gospel shared with you, will you be persuaded?

[Memory verse of the week: Matt 7:13-14]

In Revival,

Lee
