The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Ezekiel 13:1-6, “Then the word of the LORD came to me saying,

2 ‘Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who prophesy, and say
to those who prophesy from their own inspiration, ‘Listen to the word of the
LORD!

3 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, ‘Woe to the foolish prophets who are following
their own spirit and have seen nothing.

4 ‘O Israel, your prophets have been like foxes among ruins.

5 ‘You have not gone up into the breaches, nor did you build the wall around
the house of Israel to stand in the battle on the day of the LORD.

6 ‘They see falsehood and lying divination who are saying, ‘The LORD
declares,’ when the LORD has not sent them; yet they hope for the
fulfillment of their word!”

There’s an old, but short spiritual that contains the phrase,

“Ever(y) body talk about Heaven ain’t a-going there.”

That old saying speaks the truth when applied properly against the
background of Holy Scripture. Not everyone is going to Heaven. What
constitutes obtaining a valid “ticket” for entrance and residence is
confession of one’s sins and acceptance of and commitment to the LORD Jesus
Christ.

The old concept, perpetrated by ungodly pretenders of biblical
truth, is that living the best that one can is all that is required. Simply
stated: that is not true! For were it true, then Jesus went unnecessarily to
an agonizing death on the cross.

Our supreme responsibility is to believe and trust the LORD Jesus
Christ, allowing Him to live His pure and sinless Life through us. Those
among whom we live will unmistakably see the difference.

All Salvation is activated by the LORD Jesus Christ. The results
are viewed as if from us; thus, our spiritual legacy lives on forever.

Heartily in Christ,

(Dado III)
