In a recent study of American Christians, it was learned that 83% of Christians make their first commitment to Jesus between the ages of 4 and 14. So the earlier you accept Jesus, the better chance you have meeting me in Heaven one day. With such a large percent of America Christians having accepted Jesus as their Lord Savior being between 4-14 year olds age, really proves how true Proverb 22:6 is,
(Proverbs 22:3)
Many people serving as career missionaries have stated they first felt God calling them to missionary service during that 4-14 age period. The study also shows that children ages 5 to 13 have a 32% probability of accepting Christ, but youth or teens aged 14 to 18 have only a 14% probability of doing so. What is truly sad is that the study also shows us that unbelieving adults age 19 and over have just a 6% probability of becoming Christians. This data illustrates the importance of influencing children to consider making a decision to follow Christ and embrace Him as Savior and Lord.
So the older you get, the less likely you will ever accept Jesus, and instead spend eternity in hell where the fire is never quenched and the worm nerve dies. An eternal separation from GOD. If you are not saved and you feel lost, wait till you go to hell. You will then truly know what alone is like. So if you find yourself continually walking away from the message of Jesus, maybe you should turn around and instead seek HIM Who is truly calling you.
It makes logical sense, because in this World GOD still blesses everyone with the chance to live a decent life, even if you do not accept HIS Son as your Lord and Savior. However, I wouldn't settle on the meager gift offered in this World because the penalty of sin is an eventual separation for GOD. So if I were you I would take Jesus up on HIS offer today, so you can be assured of an eternal existence in the presence of the One Who created you.
I pray that those who have ears to hear, will listen to His voice and call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen
