Passion Not Excuses

Hebrews 2:1  
"Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed 
to the things which we have heard, lest at 
any time we should let them slip"  

   What would you say was the greatest moment of your life? Your answer might be your wedding, birth of your child or a big promotion at work.  But for Believers, the best experience is when their eternal destiny was changed.  New Christians often are in a rush to share their faith. However, in time they find their hearts are drifting as they try to focus on their relationship with Christ. 
   Our Scripture today is telling us to pay closer attention to what we have heard, so we do not drift away from it. (Heb:2:1).  Salvation is God's amazing solution to man's sinful condition: it is the gift of eternal life, through the death and resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, for the penalty of our transgressions.  No matter how good we may have seemed,we were spiritually dead and separated from God.  Receiving Christ's forgiveness breathed life back into our spirits so that we could go before God's Throne. 
   My Friends,  We have the opportunity to soothe the hurting hearts we come in contact with every day. But if we let excuses fill our minds before passion fills our hearts, people will never hear the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Let us all take time today to praise God for our Salvation, that took us off that road of destruction and place us on the road to eternal Life in Heaven. Take time to talk to someone about Jesus today. 
Amen!
