Lesson 5 - Life's Greatest Mistake

Life’s Greatest Mistake: Questions 10-13

Question 10

Belshazzar knew what was right, but he didn’t do it! He turned his back on the light God gave him. He chose darkness rather than light.

Question 11

Babylon’s sin was so great because the Babylonians openly rebelled against God when they knew better. Our world today is following the same course.

Question 12

There is a last night for everyone and everything on earth. There is an invisible line we cannot cross without suffering the consequences. Judgment once again will fall on our society. When the accumulated figures of sin reach a certain amount, God says, “It’s enough.” In the days of Noah, wicked men sealed their destiny. During Sodom and Gomorrah’s time, the accumulated result of sin sealed the city’s doom, and heaven’s fiery judgment fell. So it will be in the last days.

Question 13

Our Lord invites us to come to Him now. The enticing “pleasures” of sin just are not worth it. His arms are open now. His mercy is available now. His grace touches us now. His Spirit is impressing you now. Why not come now? Why make the same tragic mistake of Belshazzar? Don’t delay, give Him your life today!

One day soon there will be a day of reckoning, a day of accountability, a day of earth’s final judgment. Soon every individual will make his or her final decision. The choices you make today are setting your eternal destiny.
