The Driver
by
The Driver
A driver was once stopped by a police officer. He was a good driver
and as far as he knew he had done nothing wrong.
The police officer said, “I pulled you over because you were going
60 through a school zone. There were ten warning signs that the
speed limit was 15 and you ignored them all.”
Just like the driver had ten warning signs, God has given us ten
clear warning signs in the Bible. They are called the Ten
Commandments.
Have you ever told a lie, stolen something or used God’s name as a
cuss word? If you’re like me the answer is ‘yes’.
Listen to what the Bible says: • Whoever keeps the whole law and
yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of
it.James 2:10
God is saying that by breaking one Commandment we have sinned and
will be held accountable for breaking all of them, including
adultery and murder.
• God’s judgment for our sin is death. (Banishment to hell because
He will not allow sin in His presence).Romans 6:23a
If the story ends here, there is no hope for us…
If you would like to receive God’s pardon for your sins and the gift
of eternal life, consider a prayer like this:
“Jesus, I believe you paid the penalty for my sins when you died on
the cross and rose from the dead. I want to turn from my sins and
place my trust in you as my Lord. I am willing to follow you the
rest of my life. Thank you for the gift of eternal life. Amen.”
