Faith letter to the editor

The world is like the Titanic

In response to the Justin Simmons article, hello. Where in the gospel that Jesus taught do you find unity with the religions of this world? The road to hell is paved with good intentions, but Biblically speaking, Proverbs 16:20 says, "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."

Look at the ill-fated Titanic. They boasted that even God couldn't sink it because it was so well-built. They didn't take the amount of lifeboats they would need if the unthinkable happened. This world is like the Titanic, it's doomed and the people on it, unless they hear the life-changing gospel that can save their souls and be made to see that their only hope is in Jesus Christ, and him alone.

They need to climb into his lifeboat by faith, through repentance of their sins or they won't be found among the spiritually alive on that day, like the ill-fated passengers of the Titanic who found no escape because right preparations were not made ahead of time.

They perished, and so will many in that day perish because pastors like you care more about being politically correct than doctrinally sound, and you will be held responsible for the truth you knew but failed preach on that day. Read Romans 10:17.
