Burning Bridges
Ezekiel 3:18-“When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. 319:Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. 3:20:Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. 3:21-Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.”
Many ask me why I do like I do, especially to those who appear they don’t want to hear it, especially the weakers,lukers type “believers”… Ezekiel 3:18-21 is WHY.
Burning Bridges
Who hasn’t in their life in times past, burned a bridge or two behind them that in youth they Thought would last?
Going down Life’s Highway,ever in such a hurry, passing by opportunity that is thoughtlessly cast aside in a flurry, only to look back in sad regret, thinking maybe that’s where you should be, and yet,it’s too late another bridge burned behind you like yesterday, sometimes never thinking of the loved ones,friends, are the ones who are left behind on the bridges
You set afire with your haste, burning up the friendships, relationships, true love, that are now turned into waste,
A wasted life spent in selfish pursuits,spoiled fruits of senseless labors, slaving tirelessly from dawn to dusk,leaving God behind in the Dust, another bridge burned
Behind you with Jesus softly calling you on the other side, “Come home” He cries,but in your arrogance and pride, you
Turn and walk away, another burning bridge lost on Life’s Highway. Time slips away,then your time comes, and you’re standing before the Lord in Divine Judgement,
Only to find your name isn’t in The Lamb’s Book of Life,You’re lost, without Christ.
You ask the Lord, “Can’t You be my Savior now?”,but the Lord
Looks at you with sad eyes as He replies,”No, it is too late, you didn’t heed My call, you Can’t come in the Pearly Gate,into hell you must fall, there is
A vast gulf between us, Without a bridge you can’t Cross it.”
“Lord, where is the bridge?” you cry as into The Pit you swiftly Fly.
“Right here”,the Lord replies,”I AM the bridge you burned in Life!”
