GOSPEL NUGGET #515
To think that the primary issue of God with a sinner is his conduct is to miss the deeper and graver issue of man's separation from God. Man's primary problem is not his need to be nice, sweet and charming. You can be all that and still be bound for hell.
Cempark is one of the nicest places to be in all the world. The people are calm, serene and quiet. They don't fight against each other. Year in and year out, there are zero crimes in the neighborhood. Practically, the residents are perfectly well-behaved.
Cempark is short for cemetery park. The whole place is a cemetery and the residents are all dead people. I don't have a problem with their conduct. They are all very fine folks to me. The problem is that they are all dead.
You can have all the good manners and right conduct in the world but if you have not trusted in Christ and what He did on the cross for salvation, you will still end up in hell, forever separated from God.
First things first, come to Christ, have life and be reconciled to God!
