The Importance of Gods Unpopular Promises Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins. (John 8:24) Generally speaking, Gods promises are popular with many people. When most of the Lords promises are read or taught, people are delighted. Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed... Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest... Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. (John 8:36; Matthew 11:28; and Matthew 4:19). Promises like these are so often received with favor, because they are so encouraging. They are embraced with approval, because they are so comforting. On the other hand, some of Gods promises are definitely unpopular with certain segments of humanity. This type of promise is scorned or rejected, because of its convicting or sobering character. Nevertheless, these promises that are not always well-received have great importance in Gods plan. enjoy this blessed Sunday
