What is the most frightening passage of scripture in the Bible to you? For me I think it may be Matt. 7:21-23:
Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
The thought that there will be many who meet with us this sabbath day, who profess Christ, offer corporate worship, appear to avail themselves of the means of grace, appear to have true religion, but in that final day Christ will say "I NEVER KNEW YOU". The saddest and scariest thing of all is that most of these people THINK that they are really saved. It is a sobering thought. May all of us give diligence to "make our calling an election sure".
Worship God children in spirit and in truth.
So what passage of scripture scares you the most??
