Lies the Devil Wants Us to Believe Plenty of time to live for lust, 2 Peter 3:3-4 Plenty of time to fix spiritual shortcomings, James 1:22-24 Plenty of time to put pursuit of material goods first, James 4:13 Plenty of time to face fears and be baptized, Acts 24:25 You shall not surely die, Genesis 3:2-4

The Truth Plenty of time to live for lust, 2 Peter 3:3-4; v Plenty of time to fix spiritual shortcomings, James 1:22-24; v. 25 Plenty of time to put pursuit of material goods first, James 4:13; v Plenty of time to face fears and be baptized, Acts 24:25; v You shall not surely die, Genesis 3:2-4; v. 13, 19, 22-24

Taking chances… We might all live to be 90. James 4:14, Hebrews 9:27 Jesus may not come back in our lifetime. Hebrews 9:28, Acts 1:11, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

Today is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2 Ephesians 5: Peter 4:1-3
