And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. 1 Peter 1:17-21

Think about this scenario, your headed to life in prison for the crimes you have commited, you have one call you can make, who do you call? Your probably going to call the one who can bail you out or help you , right? This is the same scenario with your soul, your soul is on trial and being sentenced to eternal damnation, so who are you going to call? Hopefully you are calling upon God, because he’s the only one who can save you.

Notice what the Apostle Peter says here “If you call on the Father (God), who without respects to people, judges according to everyone’s works” There is good news and bad news here, the good news is your judge is a righteous and fair judge, the bad news is your judge is a righteous and fair judge. One day everyone of us will stand before God and be judged for our life, are you ready to stand before The Lord on judgment day? The judge doesn’t care how much money you have, or how many touchdowns you scored, or how popular your social media account is, God will judge you based on His standard of morality, the Ten Commandments

This is an issue that will effect everyone, so what can we do? How can we escape the wrath that is to come? Well as the Apostle Peter says here “As you know that you are not redeemed with corruptible things BUT with the precious blood of Christ” There is only one escape from the wrath to come and that’s to repent and put your faith in Jesus Christ! Now that’s a very simplified explanation I know but as scripture tells us “Everyone who calls upon the name of The Lord, shall be saved” (Romans 10:13)

There is only one solution in this world to save your soul, but why? As Peter mentioned , the precious blood of Jesus Christ, there is only One who can atone for your sins, there is only One who can wash you clean from your filthiness, there is only One who can transform you and make you Born Again! Nobody else can provide this solution for your soul, that’s why Jesus said “I AM The Way, The Truth, and The Life, Nobody comes to the Father, except through me (John 14:6) There is only One path to salvation and One way to the Father, and that’s Jesus Christ

As Peter continues to say “But was manifest in these last times for You” God has made this so easy for you, Jesus Christ came into flesh, died for your sins, and rose on the 3rd day defeating sin and death forever, all you need to do is turn away from your sins, put your full faith in Christ as your Lord and Savior, and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, Amen!
