Spiritual Bail Out

The following verse is one of my favorites. To me it shows the parental-like concern He has for us. Those of us who have young children understand that patience demonstrates our love in most cases.

The Lord is not slow about his promise, as some think of slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:9 (NRSV)


He definitely wants us all. Not in some spooky, stalker kind of way, but He is patient and doesn't want anyone to die apart from Him.

Here is you "Spiritual Bail Out" package from God....not the Government.

16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
John 3:16-17 (NIV)

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. Mark 16:16 (NIV)

The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands. 36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him." John 3:35-36 (NIV)

In God's eyes, you are too valuable to let fail.

So, Let Him help and then Do Something with it!
