You wake up in a burning building and everyone else in the structure is asleep. Do you try to wake up those who are asleep or allow the mindset of self preservation to cause you to run directly to safety. To the disciples of Christ, there are people all around us who are oblivious to the dangers of life that are around them. We have been charged with the honorable task of alerting them to the impending devastation to come. Selfishness in the matter is not a luxury youve been afforded. And the chance of you waking up to see the danger was not by your own doing, but because God chose to open your eyes for the task of alerting others. You will have to live with the repercussions of the decision you make... -------------------------------------------- Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and say to them: When I bring the sword upon a land, and the people of the land take a man from their territory and make him their watchman, when he sees the sword coming upon the land, if he blows the trumpet and warns the people, then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet and does not take warning, if the sword comes and takes him away, his blood shall be on his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, but did not take warning; his blood shall be upon himself. But he who takes warning will save his life. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, and the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at the watchman’s hand. So you, son of man: I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore you shall hear a word from My mouth and warn them for Me. (Ezekiel 33:1-7 NKJV)
