Warning to be ready and to repent

This is an important message from a very devoted follower of the LORD who is a very good friend of mine--the LORD has led him to put this important message out and I agreed to help get the word out...

Dear, dear sister Susan,

Take this before the Lord and see what He gives you about the attachment. It might just be for me only to use to reach Christians who are in no way ready for His return.

There is so little time and the question that was placed in my mind - How can a Christian be reached quickly? The attachment with the new challenge at the bottom came to me today.

Jesus said, "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me." John 12:21

Jesus said, "No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." John 6:44

And the Father was drawing that crowd in John 6 by focusing all of them on the true BREAD OF LIFE - His Son!!!

Jesus said of the Holy Spirit, "And when He is come, He will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment." John 16:8

The attachment begins with Jesus' own words- If you love me you will.... of obedience;

What would cause us to truly repent - to see the glories of what our Lord has done for us? Then at the end is the WARNING TO REPENT.

In His love and for His praise,

Isa 40:29 He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength.

Zec 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

Eph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.

I surrender the circumstance or issue to Him and then He will use His strength through me. Be strong in the Greek is passive voice. He must do it all through me!

We are to take the first step of repentance and He takes over!

2Cor. 6:17

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

Come out - active voice (I must take the first step in true repentance) be ye separate - passive (it will be done by Him in, to and through me)!

HE RECEIVES ALL THE GLORY!

WHAT A WONDERFUL LORD WE HAVE!

HERE IS THE MESSAGE:

“Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, HE WILL KEEP MY WORDS: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.” John 14:23

HOW CAN I NOT LOVE AND OBEY HIM WHEN JESUS…

…looked inside of my heart and saw what was absolutely abhorrent to His pure soul, my sin nature which was dead in trespasses and sins (Eph.2:1) - DEAD! DEAD! DEAD? These dead things were spiritually decaying and putrid smelling! Only God could handle that repugnant, eternal stench. Jesus saw all of my filthy deadness in the cup He was offered by His Father in the Garden of Gethsemane and wept. He willingly took that horrifying cup and drank it up fully.
