171 The Revelation of Jesus Christ Lord Jesus, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." "YE MusT BE BoRN AGAIN!" Have you,_my brother, ever been born again? Has there ever been a time in your life when you have believed on the Son of God who died for your sins and arose for your justifi cation? In that day that is rapidly drawing nigh, when the church, which is His Body. is to be translated, membership with a mere church organization is not going to be of any value to you. Neither will attendance at the Lord's Table, or any other religious ceremony, no matter how earnest you may be. You must have a new life which comes from the heart of God, and that new life can be received only through the ac ceptance of Him who is the Life-Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Everything seems to indicate that the Church Age is rapidly coming to a close. The day of grace will soon be over, and the reason God bears with the world, as He is doing, is that He is "not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." He is doing everything in His omnipotent power to bring you, my brother, to the end of your self and to a realization of your need of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you go on, unsaved, your responsibility has increased, be cause the gift of eternal life has been offered you once again. To your multitude of sins has been added the sin of the re jection of that offer; and each time you reject it, it becomes easier for you to do so. Every day you live, your character becomes more fixed. In His Word, God has shown us what is in store for those who love Him, and what their eternal destiny is to be. In the book of Revelation He gives us a little insight of what is to be the destiny of those who choose sin in preference to Christ. "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him" (John 3:36).
