Working on a Book...Here's a Preview (Thank you Lord for blessing these words.)

If the truth scares you then it is because something in your heart is moving you, not because
Hellfire and brimstone is being thrown at you like chum to a starving shark. It is the fear of the Lord, not the fear of Hell that should be motivating people to reach towards Heaven. If the sole reason you professed Jesus as your savior was to avoid Hell, you have done it for the wrong reasons. I know that may rub some people the wrong way, and we are all entitled to believe whatever we choose, but this Christian believes in a ever growing salvation, a work that starts when you accept him, and evolves until you are called home. I am trapped in this flesh until that glorious moment when the trumpet sounds, and as such I make mistakes. I have hardships and struggles. I wrestle with temptations sometimes to the point that I just break down and cry. I am far from where I need to be in my relationship with God and even farther from where I want to be. But each day is a learning experience.
