Some have been claiming for years that the conflict between left and right is irrelevant. As people who were once on the right adopt more and more doctrines and presumptions of the left, that would seem to be true. All conflicts on this planet will ultimately give way to one final conflict. Maybe you can see it beginning to happen right now.
The battle lines are drawn, and every human being must choose a side.
There are only two sides. There is no fence to sit on or gray area to dwell in. Jesus said those who are not with Him are against Him. If you are not on the straight, narrow path to eternal life, then you are on the wide, easy path to the second death.
Christianity is the faith of the empty tomb. Our Savior went into the grave as the Passover Lamb, but emerged as the Lion of Judah. The Prince of Peace is now the King of Kings. The three days He spent in the belly of the Earth, as prophesied in advance, was the turning point of world history. Our calendars reflect this even today in the post-Christian West.
As exclusive as the Kingdom of God is, there’s an open invitation to sinners from every nation, tribe and tongue. What Jesus did on the cross paid for your clean slate. That He overcame death and the time-space continuum proves that He has the authority to clean the sin off you and accept you as one of His own.
One day the Son of God will return to claim what is rightfully His, to eradicate evil, and restore what was perfect before Adam fell. Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord. Choose to accept Him as Lord now, of your own volition.
One of the most explicit and clearest explanations of the Gospel I can recall seeing on any website. Great post!
