Spiritual Security...

Imagine that you lived your whole life attending church, volunteering, doing the will of God, helping others in your congregation. Then on the Day of Judgment Jesus says "I never knew you; depart from me, you who practice lawlessness!". (MATTHEW 7:21-23)

Check out this article which inspired my words today Not just 'spiritual spas' By John Mohan CEO of Siloam Mission.

With Good Friday (Jesus' crucifixion) and Easter (Jesus' bodily resurrection) upon us, many people who identify themselves as Christians are thinking about Jesus and His sacrifice. Currently about 2.1 billion people in the world identify themselves as Christians (Roughly one third of the population)

Now imgaine if you will if each of those 2.1 billion people gave one dollar per month towards ending poverty and hunger in our world. The calculation looks like this 12 (months) X 2.1 billion dollars = 25.2 billion per month.

Now if there was really 25.2 billion per month to end poverty and hunger is that enough?

How about if all the professing christians gave 2 (two) dollars each month, even those that are financially challenged could do this; then the number would double to 50.4 billion dollars.

Is 50.4 billion dollars enough to put a dent in poverty and hunger world wide?

What if every professing Christian in the world was able to give 5 (five) dollars per month then the number would be five (5) times the original amount at 126 billion dollars.

Is a 126 billion dollars per month enough to stamp out hunger and poverty in our world?

What are we waiting for lets end hunger and poverty today!

May...

The Lord bless and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up his countenance upon you,
And give you peace.
