### ***“A Message to the Unbelieving Gentile”** *By Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ* My friend, you may not believe in Jesus Christ, but I urge you to listen carefully. What I share is not religion, tradition, or human philosophy—it is the truth from God, the One who created you, loves you, and calls you to salvation. You may not realize it, but you are in danger. Not because of what society says, not because of political troubles, but because of **your standing before God.** ### **1. The Reality of Your Condition** The Bible declares in **Romans 3:23** that *“all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”* That includes me. That includes you. Sin is not just murder, theft, or lies—it is the **rejection of God’s truth, choosing our own way instead of His.** You may think, *“I’m a good person. I’ve done my best.”* But let me ask you: - Have you ever lied? - Have you ever had evil thoughts? - Have you ever put your desires above God? Then, like all of us, you are guilty before a holy and just God. **Romans 6:23** warns, *“The wages of sin is death.”* This means **eternal separation from God.** You may say, *“I don’t believe in Hell.”* But belief does not change reality. If a man refuses to believe in gravity and jumps from a building, will his unbelief stop his fall? No. And just the same, rejecting the truth does not make it disappear. ### **2. The Grace That Saves** But listen! The verse does not end there. *“The wages of sin is death, BUT the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”* God made a way for you to escape judgment—not through religion, not through good deeds, but through **a person: Jesus Christ.** **Romans 5:8** says, *“God demonstrates His love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”* Two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, took the punishment you deserved. He bore your sin, your guilt, and your shame on the cross. He died in your place, was buried, and rose again on the third day, proving He has power over death. ### **3. Your Decision: Life or Death** Now, God commands all people everywhere to repent (Acts 17:30). This means **turn from unbelief and trust in Jesus Christ alone.** Listen carefully: - You **cannot save yourself** by good works (Ephesians 2:8-9). - You **cannot escape judgment** by ignoring the truth (Hebrews 9:27). - But **you can receive eternal life** by believing in Jesus Christ (John 3:16). The choice is yours. If you reject this message, you remain under **God’s wrath** (John 3:36), and one day, you will stand before Him in judgment. But if you trust in Jesus, you will be **forgiven, washed clean, and made new** (2 Corinthians 5:17). ### **4. The Urgency of Time** My friend, time is short. You do not know if you will see tomorrow. The Bible says, *“Now is the day of salvation”* (2 Corinthians 6:2). So I plead with you: - Do not delay. - Do not harden your heart. - Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you **will be saved** (Acts 16:31). **(Final Words):** This is not about religion. It is about **truth, eternity, and your soul. I pray you will choose life before it is too late. May the grace of God open your heart to believe. Amen.
