There is a back way to our local mall that takes us over a
set of railroad tracks. The railroad tracks are not gated nor do they have the
flashing signal lights. What they do have is a simple stop sign that most
drivers ignore. It is a little understandable because in the hundreds of time I
have traveled this route I had never seen a train on these tracks – until yesterday.
Much to the annoyance of the driver behind me I had stopped for the stop sign
when the whistle and rumble of a massive locomotive appeared out of nowhere and
shook me to the bone. Trains do run on that track!
Such is the case often with many people that engage in potentially
deathly sinful practices. Because they
appear to have escaped the consequence of their sin, they continue ignoring God
and his word. Unfortunately trains to
run on that track and the consequences are can be fatal. Even if a person
manages to avoid the consequences of his or her sin, there still
remains the judgment.
Beware! Heed the warning and obey the word of God.
…and be sure your sin
will find you out. (Numbers 32:23)
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. (Romans
14:12 )
