Acts 3:19King James Version
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted,
that your sins may be blotted out,
when the times of refreshing shall come
from the presence of the Lord.
The world remains asleep.
Unaware of the urgency of the times.
But the Bible is clear.
GOD's WORD resonates, loud and clear.
We are to repent, and be converted (become born again), if we aim to be with the LORD.
Many don't care, many are not aware, nor awake, but since GOD made me born again nearly seven years ago, this watchman has been writing about sin, repentance, conversion, loving GOD, loving others, looking to JESUS for our salvation, and to the HOLY SPIRIT for guidance in these most crucial days.
Clearly, these kinds of people cannot be part of the kingdom of GOD:
1 Corinthians 6:9-10King James Version
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous
shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
Be not deceived:
neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers, nor effeminate,
nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor extortioners,
shall inherit the kingdom of God.

10 neither thieves, neither avaricious men [neither covetous men, or niggards], neither men full of drunkenness, neither cursers, neither raveners, shall wield the kingdom of God
Now tell me.
Are those defined that which populates our society these days?
Very telling, yes?
Just so you know, GOD is serious.
He doesn't want ANYONE to perish, much as many continue to defy Him.
2 Peter 3:9King James Version
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,
as some men count slackness;
but is longsuffering to us-ward,
not willing that any should perish,
but that all should come to repentance.
We shall reap the fruits of our defiance, or our obedience.
Galatians 6:7-8King James Version
7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked:
for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh
shall of the flesh reap corruption;
but he that soweth to the Spirit
shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
We shall all be judged:
Isaiah 33:22King James Version
22 For the Lord is our judge,
the Lord is our lawgiver,

shall receive remission of sins.
Romans 2:3-6King James Version
3 And thinkest thou this, O man,
that judgest them which do such things,
and doest the same,
that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

and forbearance and longsuffering;
not knowing that the goodness of God
leadeth thee to repentance?

treasurest up unto thyself wrath
against the day of wrath and revelation
of the righteous judgment of God;

according to his deeds:
