GOSPEL LIGHT #730

1Co 1:18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Take note of the spiritual condition of those who are not saved here - they are tagged as "perishING." Sadly, many of them are blind and ignorant about their condition. Nothing bad has happened to them so far; everything is perfectly alright, so they think. 

A made-up story is told about a man who jumped off a building. The spectators down below were terrified but the man was perfectly calm. As he passed by a window, he looked at a man in his room and said: "Everything's perfectly alright so far."

That's the condition of many today. They know that they have fallen into sin; they know that they are sinners. They walk around this world and nothing bad has happened to them so far. Everything seems to be okay.

Until they reach the "last level" so to speak where it's going to be a lot of hurt and pain. 

My friend, if you are still unsaved this is exactly your spiritual condition - you are perishing. You need some good old saving! Trust in the Savior and what He did on the cross and be saved.
