I bring you greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I believe that we are in the last days and I must write and warn everyone that Jesus is coming again soon, and it’s my duty to warn the sick and dying and to beg them to get saved while there is still time.

Our country and our town are not the same as it was in the past. It seems that the whole face of New Martinsville has changed what used to be a nice friendly town has turned into a cesspool of corruption and filth.

We have places that I never dreamed of being here.

That is gambling places and I see little old ladies coming out of these places early in the morning, their purses slung over their shoulders, cigarettes hanging out of their mouths and looking very tired.

What in the world is going on? What has happened to our town? People are running helter-skelter being lovers of pleasure and sin. Please stop this foolishness and come back to our loving God.

What a great and glorious thought. God gave us his most precious gift he could give us, his only begotten Son. He left the splendors of Heaven to die for all mankind. (Acts 16:31) “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved.” Jesus said, “The world hates me because I testify that the world’s works are evil.”

This is the good news: 1. God does not want you to perish … We have His word in it; 2. God has provided the only way to be saved from hell … You have God’s word on it.

Now, this is the bad news: 1. You are a sinner … You have God’s word on it; 2. You will die and be cast into the lake of fire, because of your sin … You have God’s word on it. 3. You cannot save or help yourself … You have God’s word on it.

Now is your decision. You must turn from “your way” and turn to “God’s way” and completely trust “Jesus Christ” to save you. You have God’s word on it. Will you accept or reject Jesus? The choice is yours!!
