Speeding 🚔🛻

Hebrews 10:4 (KJV) For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

It is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats can take away our sins. We don’t have to believe nor put trust in the Bible, many don’t. We can say, even believe, that the Bible is a good book written by good men for a good purpose. The Bible can help people be kind and good one to another and that’s great but it’s just a book.Just as some don’t really believe that the speed limit signs really mean what they say. Red lights don’t really mean stop for them and neither do stop signs. Until they are pulled over by the police. Then the law is enforced and the penalty is enforced. The fine is set and you who didn’t believe now have to pay the fine because you have broken the law. That is the same way the Bible is. First it tells you the law but you ignore it like one would ignore a speed limit sign. All your life you ignore the Bible and what’s written within the covers, never read it, never try to understand it. Then one day life stopped as we know it. Then just like the speeding ticket you can’t undo what has been done. Then God’s law you have broken needs payment and you come up short. Romans 6:23 (KJV) For the wages of sin is death; Wages? Death? for what? Sin, that you were too busy to take the time to find out if the Bible was really true and right. So you breezed through life believing wrong, listening to others and their ideas. That is what the thief beside Jesus did. He was paying the penalty for what he had done. He was right beside Jesus Christ who was paying for this thief’s sin debt. But he listened to others. Here’s what those others were saying at the foot of the cross. Luke 23:35 (KJV) And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God. They were watching, they were making sarcastic remarks and they also were saying prove who you say you are. Now read what the thief had to say. 

Luke 23:39 (KJV) And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. He agreed with others, he let others influence him and because of that he missed the gift that was right beside him.

Romans 6:23 (KJV) but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Oh my what an opportunity missed. Just remember once a speeding ticket is issued it must be paid. Make sure you are not speeding through life and miss Jesus the gift of God.
