Are You Ready?
13“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.15“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. 18A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Thus you will recognize them by their fruits. Matthew 7:13-20
What’s your fruit? Do you even have any? Are you full of anger? Hateful? Terrified? Are you exhausted from trying to keep your head above whatever addiction/acting out/sin you’re hooked into? Are you thick and slow from the hypnosis of mediocraty? Are you sedated by the comfort and convenience of your life?
Are you so crazy and dead inside that your life sucks – but you still have an opinion? Personally I don’t want any advice on rescue from someone trapped on an island! Seriously! Wake up!! What are you fighting? What are you defending? Your right to kill yourself? Slowly by suffocating the light right out of you – or quickly by the accelerating violence of darkness inside you?
Wake up! There is another way! But it doesn’t include your bullshit opinion. Did you really think that the Jesus of your depraved consciousness could save you? NO! But there is another Jesus. That God Man, who died on a cross bearing the weight of the filth of humanity. The one who was raised to life and is willing right this very second to smash the chains that you’ve been living in all of your self-willed life. Are you ready?
