♥ Take This Warning Seriously!

He heard the sound of the trumpet, but did not take warning, (Ezekiel 33:5).

Take this warning seriously because time is running out, and the end is at hand!

Because of a long period of heavy rainfall the level of the river flowing through the city of El Playon in Columbia rose so rapidly in a short time that the inhabitants had to flee. After a few days, however, the level had fallen to a very low level, so that they could return to their homes.

One inhabitant became suspicious that this sudden calm might be a sign of a threatening flood. Could masses of stones, mud and even uprooted trees have formed a kind of dam somewhere which at any moment might collapse under the pressure of the water? He felt compelled to rush through the town shouting, "Get to safety! The danger is not yet past!" Many heeded the warning, left their possessions behind them and sought higher ground. Others did not take it so seriously and even joked about it. A terrible roaring sound indeed soon broke out and vast masses of water flowed through the town. Houses collapsed, many people were swept away and drowned in the floods.

Today The LORD JESUS gives us all an early warning of the judgement of the world, in The HOLY BIBLE. So we are called to "Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out", (Acts 3:19). There are already plenty of indications of HIS coming judgement. GOD is indeed longsuffering and still exercises patience, but this should not lead us to ignore HIS admonition.

"The LORD is ... longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance", (2 Peter 3 : 9).
