I.WE CAN AND MUST MAKE A CHOICE! Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness...

I.WE CAN AND MUST MAKE A CHOICE! Eleanor Roosevelt “One’s philosophy is not best expressed in words. It is expressed in the choices one makes. In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves by our choices. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.”

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! 1 Kings 18:21 “How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him.”

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! Matt 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! Matt 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! 1 Tim 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! Col 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! COVETOUSNESS: “In the New Testament period the term idolatry began to be used as an intellectual concept. Idolatry became not the actual bowing down before a statue, but the replacement of God in the mind of the worshiper. While we may not make or bow down to a statue…

II.WE MUST MAKE AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE! COVETOUSNESS: “we must be constantly on guard that we let nothing come between us and God. As soon as anything does, that thing is an idol. In addition to material objects such as houses, land, and cars, idols can be people, fame, reputation, hobbies, pride, etc.” (Nelsons Illustrated Bible Dictionary).

III.WE MUST REALIZE THE URGENCY OF THE CHOICE! 2 Cor 6:2 For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

III.WE MUST REALIZE THE URGENCY OF THE CHOICE! Acts 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

III.WE MUST REALIZE THE URGENCY OF THE CHOICE! Acts 8:5, 12 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them… 12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

III.WE MUST REALIZE THE URGENCY OF THE CHOICE! Acts 16:33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

IV.THE CHOICES WE MAKE ARE PERSONAL! Rom 14:12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
