Thought for Today: “Rejecting Jesus Results in a Bad Ending”

In Jesus’s parable of the minas, I’m sure that people would like Him to have ended on a positive note. Instead, he ended it with executions for those who rejected his authority and didn’t want him to reign over them.

“But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.” (Luke 19:27)

The reading and interpretation are simple. A fatal end awaits everyone who refuses to acknowledge Jesus as their Savior and Lord. For all those who refuse the rule of Jesus Christ in their lives and who insist on doing it their own way, or oppose what the Bible says, will suffer for all eternity.

Jesus said, “This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” (Matthew 13:49-50)

There are those today who refuse Jesus’s rule over their lives. Please understand that all attempts to derail the coming reign of Jesus Christ will fail. The coming kingdom of God, the coming reign of Jesus Christ, will supplant every kingdom ever built.

This is why we need to go and share the gospel to the world.
