The Economy Of The Beast

- How will those who are thought of as educated be fooled so easily?

- Perhaps an analogy of this question will help you answer it.

-- Think for a moment of the beatitudes that Jesus gave us …

-- What if the devil wrote his own?

1. Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians -- they are my best workers.

2. Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked -- I can use them.

3. Blessed are the touchy that stop going to church -- they are my missionaries.

4. Blessed are the trouble makers -- they shall be called my children.

5. Blessed are the complainers -- I'm all ears to them.

6. Blessed are those who are bored with the minister's mannerisms and mistakes -- for they get nothing out of his sermons.

7. Blessed is the church member who expects to be invited to his own church events -- for he is a part of the problem instead of the solution.

8. Blessed are those who gossip -- for they shall cause strife and divisions that please me.

9. Blessed are those who do not give their offering to carry on God's work -- for they are my helpers.

10. Blessed are those who are easily offended -- for they will soon get angry and quit the Christian lifestyle.

- What will you choose when asked?

-- Will you accept Jesus Christ and His gift of salvation forever or

-- Will you blindly roll the dice and hope that God will let you slide by because you are a “good person”?

- Let me tell you, hell is filled with good people

-- They all had good intentions of doing good things

-- But if you die today without Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, your eternity is with those who denied Jesus

- What will you choose? Where will you spend eternity?

-- Today I would love to introduce you to Jesus Christ, to get your eternity secured forever … but you have to make the first move.
