There is no valid excuse, for neglecting the great gift of
salvation which God so freely offers to everyone. Most Christians
tend to believe God provides salvation for basically good and nice
people, who cannot quite make it on their own. Nothing could be
further from the truth, as the atonement was so powerful and
outreaching that even the most terrible and brutal people have the
option to turn to God and be saved!
Note Romans 5:6, it clearly states that Christ died for the
UNGODLY. Was not Hitler ungodly? Many people with terrible criminal
records, have turned to the Lord and become citizens of God's
heavenly Jerusalem. Being ungodly, is an essential qualification
for being saved. Think about that statement, before you read
further.
Christians tend to believe the "ungodly" label refers to the
homosexual, the drunkard, abortionists, and others with serious
problems in their lives. How wrong! It is more serious for that
sweet old grandma across town, to IGNORE her need of salvation.
There are many basically good people, who will share eternity with
individuals like Hitler. You see, they have committed the most
terrible sin of all by NEGLECTING or REJECTING Jesus Christ.
If you ar not "in-Christ," you are ungodly and destined for a very
terrible future. Hell will be full of very rotten and crude
individuals, but it will also have a great population of well
intentioned people who just could not accept the fact that NICE
people have no guarantee of heaven.
A nice and decent person without Christ, is an ungodly person at
heart. The blood of Jesus could have EASILY washed Hitler's sin
away, if he had turned to Christ before he died. If you neglect
this powerful salvation yourself, you are guilty of the same sin as
Hitler himself!
Even one sin, becomes two sins by default. You must add the sin of
REJECTING Christ, to every other sin you commit in your lifetime.
Your UNGODLY state can become your first step toward forgiveness,
or it can be your final step into hell. Hitler was a wicked and
perverted person, and those outside of Christ will have him as
their neighbor for eternity.
Why not choose Jesus instead? Everything has already been provided
for your salvation, you have NO EXCUSE to remain in an ungodly
state. You may be the nicest person on the block, but your future
neighborhood may be a place engulfed in flames...
