A Thief in the Night
A little while back, a man who had only been married a little over 2 years, (I joined him and his bride together), woke up Sunday morning, kissed his wife as she had to work that day, and relaxed in bed as she left. She came home around noon when he wouldn’t answer the phone, and found him slumped over the bed with a phone in his hand. He was dead. He did not believe in God.
As tragic as this is, this is a reality for most people, who, although they have heard, they will not believe. And death, the day of the Lord, comes to them as a thief in the night.
As Christians, who are children of the day, that day will not overtake us as a thief. I don’t know about you, but I would rather know, than not know, so that I can be sure that I am ready.
I preached this message last Sunday morning. If you would like a DVD of this, or several of them, just send us a note. You have friends and family members that do not know the Lord. They need to be warned.
