It is true that there are some who do not need to respond. But on the other hand, there are those who need to respond to our Lord’s invitation.
- Those who need to respond need to, today, because they have rejected all the other invitations the Lord has allowed to be extended to them.
- No one has a promise of even one more invitation after this one.
It is important that this one be taken seriously.
Examine yourself, assess your spiritual condition, submit to God’s will and you can be forgiven of the sins you have committed and be saved. We instruct as all have been commanded to obey, believe in God (Hebrews 11:6) and His Son, Jesus the Christ (Matthew 16:16).
We exhort you to “repent and turn to God” (Acts 26:20) and to “confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord” (Romans 10:9).
In Acts 2 we read of “those who had received” the words of God’s message through Peter and how they “were baptized” (Acts 2:38, 41).
Will you receive the message of the Lord’s invitation for you to come to Him?

In the Old Testament, we have in great detail, at times, the compassion of God. He is compassionate by nature, “The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and gracious, slow to…
How many of us have been unwilling to forgive a person even one time when they sought our forgiveness? How many of us grudgingly forgave one time, but were unwilling to do so a second time? How many of us would have been willing to go Peter’s seven times, but set our limit there?
According to Mark 15:39, there was a centurion who was standing right in front of Jesus at the cross. When he saw the way Jesus took His last breath, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”
Compassion is to be shown to the regulars as we might consider them. Rebellious people receive compassion because of who God is, not what they have done, because of his grace, not because they deserve it, because he is just, not because they are right. Repentant people are shown compassion because they learn to fear the LORD, usually because of the punishment put upon them; when rebellious or disobedient people return to God and cry out for deliverance, God shows them compassion. God wants to show his compassion to you.
The question for each of us is simple: To whom will you prove to be a neighbor? Will you be the hands of Jesus by being a messenger of His compassion to a world that is lost and in great need.
