The three roads to Eternity
The Three Roads To Eternity
THE THREE ROADS TO ETERNITY
PREFACE
The voice I heard from
the Lord was “Christian religious teachers, preachers and elders you have misled
my flocks, you have putting them into confusion, you have led them astray from
my true way of salvation, you teach them on how to practice evil act instead of
good deed, you kept them in the custody of disobedience and misbehavior to I your
Lord and master. And I the Lord almighty say you “Religious teachers, preachers
and elders shall carry their responsibilities on the last day.
I am pleased with the way
the Christians of this generation are easily confused and being misled by many
false prophets, teachers and preachers, but have said that your religious
teachers, preachers and elders shall carry your responsibilities on the last day.
Some are weighing the perfection of the Christian faith base on the standard of
their various denominational churches. Denominationalism have greatly separated
the Christians apart, diversity in the practice of doctrine have led many away
from the initial and original truth of the teaching of Jesus Christ about the
churches and the functions and the primary mission of the churches.
Bring your selves down
and be awake to your primary assignment.
“His
watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they all dumb dogs, they cannot
bark; sleeping, lying down, and loving to slumber. Yea, they are greedy dogs
who can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they
all look to their own way, everyone for his gain, from his own quarter. Come
you, they say, I will bring wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink;
and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant” (Isaiah
56:10-12).
“I
charge you therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the
living and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; preach the word; be
diligent in season, out of the season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all
longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure
sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they draw to themselves
teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the
truth, and shall be turned unto myths. But you watch in all things, endure
afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fully carry out your ministry” ___
2Timothy 4:1-5.
The light shined for a
while but none of you sighted it. Don’t you realize that the end has come?
Don’t you notice some false prophets, teachers, preachers and elders by name
following the believers of Christ faith one after the other, and church by
church? They are winning their attention and interest with false teaching and
miracle as way of winning more members into their various churches or
associates into their company.
“Beware
of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are
ravening wolves. You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit;
but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil
fruit; neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that
brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Therefore by
their fruits you shall know them. Not everyone that says unto me, Lord, Lord,
shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father
who is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in your name? And in your name have cast out demons? Andin your name
done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them I never knew you:
depart from me, you that work iniquity” ___ Mathew 7:15-23.
A single seed is buried
into the soil to yield multiple fruits, and yet after the seeds of the fruits produced
shall replicate more fruits of it kind, so this sustain the continuity of
generation. Just of recent the trumpet sounded once for warning, but not all
believers heard that, and even some of those who are opportune to hear the
sound, do not care.
THE THREE ROADS TO ETERNITY
Road
One is full of bad people: drunkards, robbers, false religious teachers, people
seeking pleasure and perversions. The folks on this road don’t even claim to be
good. They are on the road Jesus spoke of when he said, “Wide is the gate, and
broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, many there be which go in it.”
Road
Two is traveled by people quite the opposite. These folks are dedicated to
living in the fear of the one who will judge the world. They deny themselves of
fine things big and small that they consider a danger to their spiritual lives.
They live as if this world were not their real home. They walk on the road
Jesus spoke of when He said, “Straight is the gate, and narrow is the way,
which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
Road
Three is traveled by people who seem too good to be on the first road and yet
do not fit on the second. These folks are called Christians, but they would
never be considered fanatics. They have sins in their lives and hearts which
they consider to be irrelevant in this era of grace. They go to Church, do
mission work, and help others. They appear to be on another road to heaven. These
things appear to the casual “Christian.” The idea of third road raises some
questions for the person who studies the Bible.
Why did Jesus mention
only two roads in His sermon on the mount? Did He forget to classify all those
good people who don’t seem to fit on either of the two roads?
If not, what is this
third road, and where are the people headed who are on it?
However, let’s me
concludes my long narration with a brief exposition on the “Road Three”. This
road is popular among religious people because it seems right. “There is a way that seems right unto a man,
but the end thereof are the ways of death” ___ Proverbs 16:25.
Pastors themselves travel
it _ “His watchmen are blind: they are
all ignorant, they all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, and
loving to slumber. Yea, they are greedy dogs who can never have enough, and
they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way,
everyone for his gain, from his own quarter. Come you, they say, I will bring
wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as
this day, and much more abundant” (Isaiah 56:10-12). And people love it!
They like to believe that
with all their baggage they can still travel the road to heaven. “For the time will come when they will not
endure sound doctrine; but after their own lust shall they draw to themselves
teachers, having itching ears” ___ 2 Timothy 4:3.
Beloved readers of
this publication I didn’t expect you to miss that narrow road that leadeth to
heaven, your days and nights labor on entry the kingdom of heaven after the
trumpet might have sound ought not to be in vain. You now have the grace to
make any possible amendment in your area of weakness. The wisdom and strength
is of the Lord.
