The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Revelation 20:1-6, “Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years;
3 and he threw him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were completed; after these things he must be released for a short time.
4 Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the Word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.”

If there was ever any doubt in your mind about who killed the two Murdaughs, the evidence has now brought everything to light and justice, including the true villain. If there is any confusion in your mind about the end
times, this verse that comes to us from the Scripture should be comforting. This verse brings to mind the Scripture that says, “Be sure your sin will find you out” (Num. 32:23).

“For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the land of the righteous, so that the righteous will not put
forth their hands to do wrong. Do good, O LORD, to those who are good and to those who are upright in their
hearts. But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD will lead them away with the doers
of iniquity” (Ps. 125:3-5).

The Scriptures inspire the righteous! The inestimable glory of the Life to come does not shudder in the face of
evil. When I asked you to pray for Alex Murdaugh, it was for his soul I was asking. Many South Carolina
residents are solid, spiritually-minded Christian people. Unfortunately, there are also many who are not.

Yet, the spaces allotted to those who occupy prison cells are not to be compared with the glorious, spaciousness of Eternity’s provisions for the Righteous. It is they, who are committed to Jesus Christ. “I go to prepare a place for you,” He said, “that where I am, there you may be also” (Jn. 14:3).

Does your life belong to Him? If not, why not? Are you ready for the challenge to share Christ with the lost? The signs of His Return are rapidly increasing in our midst. We must be ready, lest His Coming catches us unaware! Then, what will become of those who do not know Him? He will simply answer, “I never knew you!”

Heartily in Christ Jesus,

(Dado III)
