Don't Procrastinate

"how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?"
Hebrews 2:3


There  is no greater salvation than that secured for us by the Lord Jesus Christ. In fact, it is the only way to salvation. Jesus said "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." Destruction doesn't come just  by openly opposing  or fighting against the gospel, it only takes merely neglecting it. 


The devil and his cohorts were devising plans to get people to reject the Gospel. “Let’s go to them and say there is no God,” proposed one. Silence prevailed. Every devil knew that most people believe in a supreme being. “Let’s tell them there is no hell, no future punishment for the wicked.” offered another. That was turned down, because men obviously have consciences which tell them that sin must be punished. The concave was going to end in failure when there came a voice from the rear: “Tell them there is a God, there is a hell and that the Bible is the Word of God. But tell them there is plenty of time to decide the question. Let them ‘neglect’ the Gospel, until it is too late.” All hell erupted with ghoulish glee, for they knew that if a person procrastinated on Christ, they usually never accept Him.
