What if??

  

What if...

What If the Creator of the earth actually had a purpose for our lives?  Would He just leave us on earth and say "here you are, good luck!" Or maybe....what if He had a plan? What if He revealed this plan through human history over the span of many years? 

Do you believe that someone as powerful as the creator of the universe could actually write a book? Do you believe that perhaps God wants to communicate His plans for us on a daily basis and not simply leave us stranded? 

What if there was a way to bridge the gap between a holy God and an unholy human being? Would you want to cross that bridge? What if there really is somewhere that you go after you die? Are you sure, without a doubt, that you would go there to be with God? What are you basing those beliefs on?? 

What if God has a plan to help you live in eternity with Him but you ignore it because you think you're smarter than He is? Do you really want to take that risk?? 

What if you keep rejecting God's message because you choose to believe the false "intelligence" of this world, telling you there is no true way, there is no absolute truth, we are all simply "good enough". 

What if they are wrong? That's a big risk don't you think? 

If I'm weighing the odds, I don't want to take something as important as my eternal destiny, and that of my children,  so lightly. I don't want to just risk it without investigation, merely hoping I'm right. 

I want to search for the truth. 

We spend more time researching the best schools for our children, the best parenting methods, the best ways to pursue happiness here on earth...

Why not research our eternal destinies just a bit? 

What if the Bible is true??

Do we realize how many people have studied this one book, tried to refute this one book, risked their lives for this one book, found new life in this one book. 

Are you willing to live your life and never even open it?

What if it really is God's message to the world. What if it really is as unique and irrefutable as scholars have proven it to be? 

What if the world wants you to ignore it,  but God wants so much more for you? 

What if???
