PROCRASTINATION

by PEARL NSIAH-KUMI  
4/23/2018 / Salvation

 

 

Are you a procrastinator? Webster defi nes procrastinate as: put
off , delay, postpone, drag your feet, defer and dally. Many people
have problems with procrastination, but they do eventually get
around to taking care of business. Sometimes though, they don’t,
and miss important deadlines as a result.

Different people procrastinate about diff erent things. Some
missed deadlines are opportunities gone forever, and no amount of
regret can change that. If you drag your feet about a bill, you might
have to pay it later with interest and life will still go on.
However, there is one critical deadline that aff ects every
individual, man or woman, young or old, and the Bible calls it the
Day of Salvation (see 2 Corinthians 6:2 NIV).
It is a critical deadline because the Bible also says, “Man is
destined to die once, and after that to face judgment” (Hebrews 9:27 NIV).

The Day of Salvation is a critical deadline because if missed,
(unsaved before death) the destination after judgment is hell, a
place originally prepared for the devil and his angels.
So you might say, “Which day is the Day of Salvation?” It is
different for each person, but it is the day a person is confronted
with the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ. So for you dear reader,
today is your day. Don’t let the sun go down without you settling
this issue. Below is the gospel in a nutshell:

1. You are a sinner (you have a sin nature) Romans 3:23.
2. Th e payment for your sin is death (hell) Romans 6:23.
3. Jesus is the Son of God, the only Savior appointed by
God. “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no
other name under heaven given to men by which we must
be saved” (Acts 4:12 NIV).

4. Jesus died in your place so you can be saved through Him.
(see 1 Timothy 2:6).
5. What you need to do is:
• Repent and believe in Jesus
• Confess you sins to Him,
• Ask for forgiveness and He will forgive you (see 1 John 1:9)
You might have heard this before, but did nothing about it.
Head knowledge about the gospel does not save you; you need to
believe it by believing in the name of Jesus. By God’s grace you have
been given another opportunity. Please don’t put it off any longer;
you might not have this opportunity again. Make your decision
today, because tomorrow could be too late. “Now is the time of
God’s favor, now is the Day of Salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2 NIV).
