STOP, LOOK AND LISTEN

STOP

 

Please cast your minds back a few years.  We were taught how to cross the road correctly – Stop, Look both ways and Listen for any traffic approaching.  I would like to apply these three words to today’s day and age.

 

Have you ever stopped to think why this world is like it is now – people rushing about everywhere, wanting to get where they are going as soon, and as quickly as possible; no time for anything or anyone, just pleasing themselves?  Let’s take a brief look at the world around us – earthquakes, terrors, epidemics, starvation, hatred for other people, not marrying like they used to, just doing what people want to do, not really interested in anybody else but themselves.

 

Does it make you want to stop and look at where your life is going?

 

LOOK

 

First we need to look and search to find that Book which most people have in their homes but never pick up, and read God’s living word.  We fill find what God has to say about this world in which we live.  It contains salvation for each and everyone of us if we will only read God’s word and understand what God wants from us, and follow His Son’s example, the Lord Jesus Christ, for He died for each of us.

 

Let’s take a look at what Peter tells us about the last days.  Read the second book of Peter, Chapter 3 verses 1-9. 

 

Do you think we are living in the last days?  If you do, you must do something about it now and find out more.

 

LISTEN

 

Firstly contact the Christadelphians and go and listen at the many meeting rooms around the country and worldwide.  You will find a warm welcome and people who will help you understand what God has to offer you through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

We are living in a Godless world and need to put our lives into God’s hands.  Read John chapter 3 verses 14-21.

 

Please try and come to one of our meetings.  You will never regret it and then you will learn to understand what is going on in the world today.  Time is short – the Lord Jesus Christ will soon return to this world to set up His Kingdom.
