    The Great Escape Series

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Mar 31, 2020
     | 3,389 views

    There are only two ways we will ever escape this life: death or the rapture. For many, the word death, is a cold, fearful word. According to the bible, death is our friend, only a means to transport us from one life to another.

    1. Death is not a secret thing that no one knows about. We know it is coming. We just don’t know when. a. Ecclesiastes 9:5; Hebrews 9:27 b. Job 38:17; Psalm 9:13 2. There is no way to stop death when it knocks. Ecclesiastes 8:8 3. Death is not to be a sad or unhappy experience. Psalm 116:15; Psalm ...read more

    We must keep our hearts focused on eternal life and pleasing God. We cannot afford to let the things of this world make us spiritually bankrupt.

    ROBERT FROST HAS WRITTEN ONE OF THE MOST PROFOUND STATEMENTS WHICH SIMPLY SAYS, “TWO ROADS DIVERGED IN A WOOD, AND I—I TOOK THE ONE LESS TRAVELED BY, AND THAT HAS MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.” THOSE WHO FOLLOW CHRIST MUST ALSO CHOOSE A SIMILAR PATH LESS TRAVELED THAT WILL MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE. ...read more
