The "Age of Grace" is Almost Over

We need to understand that the "Age of Grace" had its beginning on the Day of Pentecost, and just as it had a beginning, it will also have an end! When Jesus is seen on the clouds (Matthew 24:29-31) and sends forth His angels to gather the true believers from every corner of the earth ...THAT will mark the end of the Age of Grace.

While He was on the earth, Jesus likened that time as it was in the days of Noah. When God closed the door of the Ark, that marked the end of opportunity for anyone else on the earth to be saved. After the Age of Grace is over, God will then close the door to Gentiles, and He will turn His attention to Israel, marking the beginning of the time of " Jacob's Troubles, or the time that Jesus called "The GREAT Tribulation" (Matthew 24:21). This is the time when He said conditions on earth will be like has never been known before, and never will again as God begins to pour out His wrath upon the earth. That will be a time of horrendous suffering, violence and death.

I realize that many people read those words and hear this warning and they think, "Oh I still have plenty of time" and I'm sure those people in Noah's time felt the same way. They had been hearing "Noah's stories" for 100 years and they didn't think it would even really happen at all. But one day, as they watched Noah and his family go into the Ark and the hand of God closed that door...and then the rains began, and even though they probably banged on the door and begged Noah to let them in...by that time, it was too late! They were all swept away by God's judgement upon the world...and according to Bible Prophecy, He will once again send judgement upon the world to all those people who rejected the great sacrifice that Jesus endured and the gift of salvation He offers so that they could repent and make Christ their Savior and Lord and receive eternal life.

For right now, you still have that opportunity Friends. The door is still open and you can choose to enter in. But, the way the world is going and the prophecies that we are watching unfolding right now, that door will not be open for much longer. Won't you choose to repent or turn away from your sinful lifestyle, and allow Jesus to change you from the inside and give you His gift of eternal life right now? For soon, it will be too late!

"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." (Galatians 3:13-14)
