-A Voice Left Behind” ^ oyj.n.uiue Special To The Peat Over the years we have brought messages on the world conditions prior to the Second Coming of Christ, and also on the sad scene there at the Great White Throne Judgement of Rev. 20:11, 12. I praise and thank the Lord for saving me almost thirteen yean ago. I know of a certainty that the greatest thing in all this world is to know Christ as your Lord and Saviour. It’s the greatest thing that could happen to a poor, lost sinner. Just several days ago 1 sat out there in the shadow of huge oaks telling a dear man, 76 years old, how God saved me. I don’t know of a greater story to teU. than that of Christ d|ying for sinners. Do you? Do you know Christ? ' God’s redemption is simple but the professors stuipble over it because you are wedded to your opinion. Your opinion is an idol which will damn your soul in Hell. Before you can be saved you have to let go of everything you ever behaved and let God take complete control of you. And since we have been putting our messages in print I have been drawing the . Hne of demarcation i the life of a professor and a truly saved soul. Only by tig'grace ofQod have 1 done so. It is not J.M. Little, for I am only a human instrument God has Chosen to use. A man said several yean ago after someone gave him some of our messages; “Little does not have intelligence enough to write messages ■She-that.” Now, that man was right, these messages are from the Lord. So when you scoff at them you are scoffing at the Lord. One day soon to your unspeakable sorrow and regret you will acknowledge that. When I was in the religious world I knew nothing of the Way of Grace. I learned the Way of Grace under Holy Spirit conviction at the feet of Christ. Every soul who has heard the Voice of theXord knows I am setting forth the truth. I have to draw the line right there again. Our subject at this time Is: “A VOICE LEFT BEHIND." When Christ conies, which could be any minute, and takes His blood bought souls out in the rapture, some win be left behind. Some in my family will be left behind. Some in your family will be left behind. "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:T and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which tot alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall wa ever be with the Lord.” (I Thess. 4:1«, iff. That is as certain to taae place as God is on the Throne. And this Scripture does away with your Amillenial hellish doctrine. The Lard’s return in the air for His own will take piker but there will be souls left behind whom we pleaded with to turn to Christ. You ■gde light of the many warnings you received. Some of you aat under the truth day after day. Some lived in a home where Christ was known. Wlwt will he the attitude of those when they realise their loved ones have been taken away by Christ? A voice left behind win weep bitter ly and in unspeakable sor «ww; "Why couldn't I be lieve the truth he gave me? I What a fool I was to take the truth lightly! I lived under the truth, but yet refused it. A man will say; “I wish I . had listened to my wife and turned to Christ.” A woman will weep a mul titude of bitter tears; “Oh, why?! Why couldn’t I see the truth and turn to Christ? I My husband pleaded with me to ham to Christ The more he fried to talk to me about Christ the more I went into my religion trying to drown out the truth he was trying to five me about the Lord to show me my empty reli gious profession.” A group <t church members will wegp hitter tests also; "We sat under the truth every Sunday, boasting of Ott fact we didn’t run with the world as others. Now, we see that living a life J. M. Little unspotted from the world without the New Biifeh is vain. All our faithfulness to church was eqipty without Christ. We had never had Christ revealed to our hearts. What will we do? We are lost and left be hind. ” Then a preacher will stand in his pulpit the next church service and tell his congregation,. _1 with dropped shoulders); “Bro thers and sisters, it is eyident from the missing few around the world that Christ has come and rap tured His true church while we slept. Not the physical sleep you get at night when you go to bed, but we, and I include your pastor in that ‘we’, slept even while we lived a great religious life left behind. I didn’t have the New Birth. Now I realize Brother Little was right in warning us that one has to haye a personal knowledge ot Christ as his Lord and Saviour. I was wrong to say he was crazy. You, my church members, paid me to preach to you. I led you blindly. May God have mercy on me for murdering your souls.” Friends, on and on it will go with those left behind when Christ comes. This is not a dream or some iantacy I'm giving you, friends. When Christ comes and takes His own out then you’ll see your doom. You don’t believe me now when I warn you. But then you’ll say; “What fools we were not to believe the truthl” I plead with you to turn to Christ now before He comes. Will you do it? I invite you to continue listening to my late Pastor, L. R. Shelton, with THE VOICE OF TRUTH each Sunday morning over WAGI-FM at 7:30 and over WAGL-AM at 8:00. He is bringing a message; "CHRISTMAS, A DEMON HOLIDAY.” You’ll want to hear the message on this important subject. And turn to the Lord from this idolatry.
