Wake Up Before It Ends

You come to the Lord Jesus, the light of the world, he will say to you straight in your face, I love you, but you need to confess your sins and acknowledge me as your Lord and God. If you follow me, even if you die, you will live. If you take my body and blood, you will live in me forever.

And whatever I promise, I deliver. If everyone fails you, I will never do. If everyone walks away from you, you will always find me your loyal friend and faithful one.

I'm always there for you, even when you're not. But I am, because I made a promise for myself, I will never leave your orphans. I'll be with you all the days of your life and for eternities to come.

This is a promise I made. I'm God. I fulfill everything I say.

I'm God. What you see is what you get. There is no two ways about me because I'm the only way.

I am the light. The light can't be anything but light. And when the light shines, everything is vividly clear.

Nothing. There is no hidden agendas. There is no falsification.

There is no duplication. There is no corruption. There is nothing.

It's straight. Don't follow the world. The sea is the world.

Death. See, the sea gave up all those who were dead in it. At the end, you chase the world.

The world will laugh at you at the end. The world will say, you followed the world and now go to be judged. I'm a Christian.

Yeah, I was born in a Christian family. I think my parents baptized me when I was an infant. I go to church, you know, when there is an occasion.

Actually, this Sunday we have baptism. I have to go. It's family, relatives, you know, I have to.

And, oh yeah, it's Christmas coming up. But I'll go late and I'll stand in the car park. And when the time comes to receive the Holy Communion, I'll just line up for the sake of lining up and to say to everyone, I've received the Holy Communion.

Merry Christmas, family, or I'll see you next year, okay? Christians who will deny Christ will be judged much harsher than those who never accepted Christ. Hebrews 2.3. How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? This sacrifice that was offered on the cross by neglecting this great salvation offered freely on the cross. What will we answer to the Lord after giving his life for us? What will I say to him? Why did you walk away from me, son, daughter? I gave my life for you.

What was the reason? Have I not done everything for you? Have I not done the ultimate for you? What was the reason for you leaving? Then death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. The second death is the real death.

We've mentioned it before. I'll mention it again. A person who is born once will die twice.

And a person who is born twice will die only once. A person who is born once, that is the biological, physical birth. Everyone, every human beings are born once from their mother, earthly mother, earthly parents.

But those who are born once will die twice. One, physical death. Second, spiritual death.

Physical death, separation of the spirit from the body. Spiritual death, separation of the spirit from God. And that is the second death.

That is the real death. When the spirit separates from its creator, that is the real death. But those who are born twice, physical birth and baptism will form the second birth, spiritual birth from my spiritual mother, the church.

When I'm born in Jesus, the second birth, baptism, I will only die once, physical, not spiritual. He who has the son has eternal life. When you are born in Christ, you will only die physically, never spiritually.

Then death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Death, my beloved, is corruption.

Hades is the result of this corruption. Now, how did death enter? Through sin. Because the Lord God said to Adam, Adam, the day you eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, surely you shall die.

So God gave this commandment, this order, Adam, if you break my word and eat from the forbidden tree, definitely you will die. So God said, go to church. I went to the club.

The computer is not working properly. The virus has taken over. The Lord Jesus said, follow me.

I followed Satan. The Lord Jesus said, do not judge. I kept on judging.

The Lord Jesus said, pray. I sang. The Lord Jesus said, be humble.

I was boastful because it's a corrupt hard drive. Death entered and corrupted the human race. The result of this corruption, I was sentenced to Hades.

If you believe in the Lord, the impossible becomes possible. What is impossible to men is possible to God, says the Lord. What are you worried about? What are you afraid of? The future? Problems, illness, financial burdens, relational difficulties, families, couples having problems, parents with children, children with parents, family members, work colleagues.

What are your issues? What are your problems? What is bothering you? What is hurting you? What is killing you? What is frightening you? Make Him your King. There is no problem. Sometimes we pray for a certain thing to happen in our life and we beg the Lord for it.

Lord, please just solve this problem for me. Lord, please just make this happen for me. Lord, please just heal me out of this illness or situation that I'm in.

And we don't get what we ask for. And we beg the Lord for that change, for that breakthrough. It doesn't happen.

But the Lord has answered us. But because we were focused on what we wanted from Him, we missed what He gave us. We missed it.

You know what the Lord does sometimes? If I may say, a lot of times. A lot of times. He will not heal you.

He will not change your situation. He will not take you out of that problem. But He will change you.

He will change you. But let me tell you one thing about change. When we are going through the process of change, you will never know you are changing.

You'll never know it. Why? Because you are still in the process of change. When will you know? When the Lord takes you completely out of the cycle of change.

Then you'll realize He's changed you. But while you're in it, you are saying, Lord, where are you? Why are you so harsh on me? Why are you so difficult? You said pray, ask, knock, seek. I'm doing it.

Where are you? I'm not giving up. That's it. I'm not going to church anymore.

I'm not praying anymore. I'm not knocking at your door anymore. Because it's not happening.

In fact, it's getting worse. But the Lord says, blessed is he who waits till the end. For they shall live.

Because you will see what I'm doing. My child, you need to trust in me. I am Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

I am God. But this God is Daddy who loves you wholeheartedly. Who died for you wholeheartedly.

Who saved you wholeheartedly. And He is always with you wholeheartedly. He will never change.

He is the same. You need to trust Him. You need to trust in what He does.

Because everything He does is perfect. It is good. Just wait and see what the Lord is doing for you.

Man, in this I can say, thus far, I've learned a lot from my Daddy, Jesus Christ. I was a fool when I was in my 30s. This I can say with absolute confidence.

I was a little kid in my 30s. Even in my 30s. So if you think you're wise at the age of 18, my son, my daughter, you have a long way to come before you are truly wise.

You need to listen to someone older than you that loves the Lord Jesus to give you the right advice and put you on the right track. Don't take things into your own hands and say, I know what I'm doing. Everybody dies.

Even that person who lived in the Old Testament 969 years, Methuselah, still died. 969 years and still died. Some people take tablets, go on diets, iron their faces, their eyebrows, stretch them, push them, blow them up.

We will die. We will die. Whatever you spend on your face, give me 10% of that.

I send it to someone who is starving in Africa. Now you're going to look beautiful in the eyes of Christ. Now this is your makeover.

This is your facelift when you do something good for the Lord. Now you're looking beautiful, my child. Let the Lord see you beautiful, not the world.

The world is ugly. Who cares about the world? Who cares about what they think of me? I did not come to please the world. I came to speak the truth and be a witness for this truth in this dark world.

So let the world hate me. But as long as I don't lose my Jesus.
