Quoting myself from an earlier thread,

... reminds me of that venerable Christian man several hundred years ago who was the butt of many jokes for living a devout life and for having faith and for fearing the Lord.

He said that if he was wrong, the worst said of him would be he was a good and decent man who loved his family and had lived a just life.

If he was correct, he would go to meet his maker having availed himself of the Lord's help and received forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those sanctified by faith and provision for life after death.

The question he posed to the skeptics was what would happen to them if he was right?

The Bible says of ten handmaidens waiting for the bridegroom, nine grew weary and fell asleep and so did not refill their lamps and ran out of oil. When the bridegroom came, they were unprepared.

If it is the End Times, what are you doing to be prepared? Do you have on the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth, the shoes of the gospel, the shield of faith, and the Sword of God which is His word which is a two-edged sword? Is your lamp trimmed and burning and full of oil? Is your life built on sand or on a solid rock? If the Bridegroom of the Ages, the Lord Jesus, is returning to claim His own, will you be one bought with a price, or will He say to you, 'depart from me, I never knew you'?
