I heard about a man who went forward in church to accept the Lord and he was told to kneel at the altar and pray through. While he was praying an usher came up and told him to fill out a card. As he was doing that another counselor came up and said "Watch for the light brother, when I was saved I saw a bright light." Another counselor came up and said, "Hold on brother, hold on." Another counselor came up and said, "Let go, brother let go." And the man said that when he was finished, between praying through and signing a card, and letting go and holding on and watching for the light, he nearly went to hell. (This is where you now realize that this was a joke and you are supposed to laugh.)

But lets be real for minute. The humorous story is actually truth is it not?

Understanding how to respond to God’s offer of eternal life can be confusing and we as Christians do not do such a great job explaining to people how they can go about receiving the gift of eternal life. We make receiving salvation much more difficult than it really is.

I will let that swim around in your cranium!!!
