During an impassioned sermon on death and facing judgment, the

 pastor said forcefully, "Every member of this church is going to

die and face judgment."

Early on in the sermon he noticed a gentleman smiling on the

front row.

The minister kept pushing his theme, "Every member of this

church is going to die." The guy smiled even more while everyone

else in the congregation had a very sombre look.

In an effort to get through to the guy, the preacher repeated it

several more times forcefully,

"EACH MEMBER OF THIS CHURCH IS GOING TO DIE."

Each time the phrase was repeated, the man smiled more. This really got

the preacher wound up and he preached even harder. The man still smiled.

The preacher finally walked down off the platform to stand just in front
of the

smiling man and shouted, "I SAID EACH MEMBER OF THIS CHURCH IS

GOING TO DIE."

At the end of the service the man was smiling from ear to ear.

While everyone else was looking pretty grim from the prospects,

the man was now almost laughing out loud. After the service the

preacher jumped down off the platform and worked through the crowd to
find the man. Pulling

him aside, the preacher said, "I don't get it. Every time I

said, 'Every member of this church is going to die,' you were laughing.
I want to know why

you did that?"

The man looked the preacher square in the eye and said confidently,

" I'm not a member of this church. "

Dear brethren
 
1. Let us not forget The power of the gospel is Grace!!!

Heb 10: 19- 22 'Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way which he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh, and since we have a great high priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.'

2. However Grace should fill us will holy fear.......Rev 2:17 To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen,.......
 
I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, ......I am about to spit you out of my mouth.
 
Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent. 'Here I am! I standing at the door and knocking. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.

'To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as 1 overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.
 
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."
 
Stay blessed in the fear of the Lord.
 
David
