a heavy question

No, this isn't me with my shirt off; its Arnold Schwartsenegger (excuse my spelling). His physical appearance is awesome and I imagine his bank account is as well. Who would have guessed he would go from actor to California governor? Life is like that; you just never know what can happen next. Consider this passage from the book of Revelation:

Rev 1:4 John to the seven assemblies in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from the One who is, and who was, and who is coming, and from the seven spirits which are before His throne;
Rev 1:5 even from Jesus Christ the Faithful Witness, the First-born out of the dead, and the Ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him loving us and washing us from our sins by His blood,
Rev 1:6 and made us kings and priests to God, even His Father. To Him is the glory and the might forever and ever. Amen.
Rev 1:7 "Behold, He comes with the clouds," and "every eye will see Him, and the ones who pierced" Him, and all the tribes of the earth "will wail on account of Him." Yes, Amen. LITV
Surprise, Jesus is more than just a "good man" or a great "teacher"; his is the LORD of all and has the power of judgement. Nobody likes to go to court and the idea of judgement is not a pleasant one to even think about, but we make decisions all the time and often quite important ones at that. Consider what Jesus has done and what he will do in the future. Now, that leads to a heavy question: What will I do about it?
