The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Revelation 20:11-15, “Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.
12 And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds.
14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the
lake of fire.
15 And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.”

Remember the saying, “You can’t do wrong and get by”? While it did not come in that
fashion from the Scriptures, it is a truism indeed! Virtually every day we read and watch
people doing wrong and apparently getting by with what they’re doing. They may elude
their parents, their friends, even law enforcement; however, they cannot escape the
all-seeing eye of Almighty God!

The Scripture passage above reveals the solemn fact that while some things that we do may escape the notice of our fellowman, nothing we do will ultimately escape the
Eye and Judgment of Almighty God! Every one of us will one day stand before God
and give account for the sins of our lives.

Some sins are overt; they can be clearly viewed by other mortals like ourselves.
Other sins are covert; they are not known by anyone except Almighty God Himself!
Some sins are virtually unknown. Other sins are open and clearly known. Nothing, however, will escape the notice of the LORD at the Judgment Seat of Christ!

Prepare for His Judgment! Learn to trust His Word! Yield your life and all to Him!
It’s like a marriage commitment in that He is your only Companion, and He will be
our only Judge.

Heartily in Christ Jesus,

(Dado III)
