Words from the Master.
“And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades; for if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I say to you that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for you.”Matthew 11:23-24
This was originally said to the Capernaum by our Lord Jesus Christ challenging them for their Ill-responses to the gospel about 2,000 years back. Looking at the world today and considering the way people react to the gospel nowadays, what could have been said by the Lord Jesus Christ if He still alive physically today, to our communitie chief, to the Kings, the church leaders and to the leaders of the government?
As if that is not perfectly said by me so that I can direct the question to you my reader, how have you reacted to the gospel so far, do you preach the gospel? Do you listen to the gospel? Do you go to church? Are you a Christian? Do you believe in Christ and above all how have you reacted to every gospel preached to you? Can you say you have done the best you can?
Now if you have complicated answer to the above questions, the statement is directed to you reminding you that the judgement is for everyone regardless of your position, works in the vineyard and influences of any kind, serve the Lord your God with all your heart with all your soul and with all your mind love your neighbours as yourself and do unto every man as if unto the Lord especially the household of faith as the scripture says (Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith.) then you are good to go, God bless you.
