COME JUST AS YOU ARE

The Lord calls out to us: "COME AS YOU ARE." But my friends, don't use that as an excuse to "STAY AS YOU ARE." Sure, the Lord LOVES and ACCEPTS us AS WE ARE right this minute. But it's NOT because of WHO WE ARE, but because of WHO HE IS! It's NOT because of anything that WE HAVE DONE, but because of what JESUS HAS DONE! God sees the END from the BEGINNING. He KNOWS what we WILL become IF WE ALLOW HIM to work in and through us! So when you COME TO THE LORD, be prepared for TRANSFORMATION! No one can have an ENCOUNTER with the LIVING GOD, and NOT be changed! IS GOD WAITING ON YOU? Don't keep Him WAITING too long!!! TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED....THE NEXT SECOND ISN'T PROMISED! SEEK HIM TODAY, WHILE THERE IS STILL TIME! FOR NO MAN CAN ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN BUT THROUGH JESUS! So you see my friends, that CHANGE that MUST take place is not only NECESSARY, it is VITAL! It is the DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GOD & SATAN....HEAVEN & HELL! Selah! ~L.Scott~

{Matthew 11:28-30}- Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

{John 14:6}- Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. NO ONE comes to the Father EXCEPT THROUGH ME Me.

{Hebrews 3:15}- “TODAY, if you will hear His voice, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS as in the rebellion.”

{2 Corinthians 3:16}- Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY.

*Note: Let me add that that particular phrase, "COME AS YOU ARE," is NOT specifically mentioned in the bible. However, many passages show that is basically what God is saying. Besides, how else can we COME TO HIM, except AS WE ARE? We can't fool God anyway! Just wanted to point that out.....:0)
