Daily Devotional. Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: Proverbs 24:17. To look at things from a Spiritual Perspective, that nice friendly dad of 3 kids down the street will be just as bad off as ayatollah Khomeini will be if they both die in their sins, without Christ. The “3 kids dad” politely refuses to come to Christ every time a friend tries to Encourage him to be Saved. The ayatollah Khomeini has possibly slaughtered 80,000 men, women and children, of his own countrymen, IN FULL BLOWN PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, just to keep his place as head of his country. Whether “BIG SINS” or little sins, when seen through the eyes of Holiness, Sin is Sin. The sins that both these men have committed don’t even “hold a candle” to the Sin of Rejecting Christ as their Lord and Saviour. That Rejection is the ONE Sin that will condemn them to Hell and the Lake of Fire for all Eternity. People judge each other by what they see, but the Lord Judges by the Heart Attitude towards Salvation. We’re Happy to think about the Joys of Heaven for all of Eternity, and yet many people still hope the Lord will change His Mind and free those lost Souls from Eternal Damnation (aka the Catholics “Purgatory”). The Crime of Rejecting Christ as your Lord and Saviour fits the punishment of Eternity without Christ, in the Lake of Fire, THE SAME AS, to Follow Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour will be Rewarded with being in Heaven WITH your Lord and Saviour for ALL Eternity. Be in Anguish of Prayer for the lost, BEFORE they die. After their demise, it’s all over and there’s nothing more you can do for them. BUT YOU CAN PRAY EVEN MORE FOR THOSE THEY’VE LEFT BEHIND, TO COME TO CHRIST, NO MATTER WHAT THEIR “VISIBLE” SINS LOOK LIKE. Everyone is “fair game” for Salvation, from the dad down the street to the Murderer of 80,000(?) innocent people, if they will Simply Come to Christ in Repentance unto Salvation. It is as simple and easy as that for them ALL to, Be Blessed.
