2) Many choices are as different, colors black and white.
On decision to do wrong; or instead, do right.
Doing things haphazardly; or prepared, rehearsed.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
3) It could be where you take a job; or you go to school.
If you do things wisely there; or act as a fool.
Ignoring your health warnings there; or caring as a nurse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
4) Budgeting your income there; to pay all your bills.
Not spending money like water; on frivolous thrills.
Church, health, family, are all; priorities there, first.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
5) But, most important of them all; is your eternity.
Whether you like it or not; death, a reality.
After death, it is too late; once corpse in a hearse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
6) You may there detest the fact, that God made the Rules.
Professing yourself to be wise, you're instead a fool.
It is His Creation there, Earth, and Universe.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
7) Each one gets at least one chance, to hear the Gospel Truth.
Whether Jew or Gentile there; whether adult or youth.
Salvation's free gift there to all; shown in Bible verse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
8) You may consider Gospel Truth, as foolishness and dumb.
But, Christ said ''Whosoever will, to Me, there, may come''.
If you choose to reject Christ; at your death, you'll curse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
9) The Plan of Redemption there, before the Earth was made.
Christ knew that mankind would never, make perfection grade.
On The Cross, He took our place; as if by God, was cursed.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
10) On The Cross, Christ shed His Blood, to redeem the lost.
And pay for all of mankind, their sin burden cost.
Then, He arose on The Third Day; as per Scripture verse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
11) One day, everyone on Earth, before Christ, will kneel.
No guilt question, pardon, mercy, or hint of appeal.
If at The Great White Throne; your choice, you will curse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
12) Tomorrow promised to no one, and you could die today.
God's Standard is Perfection There; Christ, the Only Way.
Rejecting Christ; Heaven's Denied; and Hell is far worse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
13) Heaven is not owed to you; the default is Hell.
If you repent, believe on Christ; sin's sting you can quell.
Either serve, praise, worship Christ; or His Name, you curse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
14) Yet, God is a Gentleman, and He won't force your choice;
To accept, or there reject, The Lord's Precious Voice.
I pray you'll do the right thing shown, in this poem of verse.
Of all mistakes to make in life; one is there, far worse.
