What is Worse???

What is worse, one who does not believe in God or one who believes but does not serve Him? What is worse, one who does not believe the Bible or one who says he believes it but does not read it?

What is worse, one who does not believe in prayer or one who says God answers prayer but never takes the time to pray? What is worse, one who does not believe in the church or one who believes but never attends regularly?

What is worse, one who says he does not believe there is a Hell or one who says there is a Hell and yet never goes soul-winning to try and win someone to the Lord to keep them from going to Hell?

What is worse, one who says it is foolish to go to Sunday School and church or one who who says that you ought to go but never visits his absentees to be sure they are faithful to class? You answer these questions above.

No doubt about it, the athiest who dies without God Jesus Christ as his Saviour will burn in Hell. By the same token, the Christian who knew his responsibility and failed to do it will also give an account of his service to the Lord.

The scripture states in Luke 12:48b, "for unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required." Sometimes I wonder if in the sight of God the coldhearted and backslidden Christian might be just as big a disappointment as the athiest.

It is really hard to say which might be worse in the sight of Almighty God. Won't you do your best for Jesus this week???
