"CONSEQUENCES!"
A Message By Mark Shutts
As children we were all taught that there are always consequences to our actions. Wrong actions and wrong decisions result in a negative
outcome. For example, if you make the wrong decision to stick your hand into a pot of boiling water, the consequence is that you will
be severely burned. If you make the decision not to study for a test, the consequence is that you will fail. If you decide to
show up at work only when you feel like it, the consequence is that you will be fired. All of our actions have consequences. In the
world to come we will reap the consequences of our decisions and actions here on earth, those consequences will be irreversible,
and they will determine your eternal destiny
The consequences we face at the end of each day are a gauge of our behavior, they mirror our morals and our ethics. Our world today
is reaping the terrible consequences of its many ungodly choices and decisions, consequences of a world exhibiting a consistent behavior
of defiance toward God. Man's appetite for pleasure has led him to step beyond the bounds of righteous conduct and he is drowning
in a sea of consequences.
According to Forbes magazine and Foreign Policy magazine the three most dangerous places in the
world are Somalia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. But in actuality those places do not even come close to the real most dangerous place in
all the world and that place is - the womb. For every one intentional homicide in Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq, four hundred intentional
homicides are committed in the United States in the form of legal abortions.
