    PRIJE 18 H

    THE ELECTION’S OVER—ARE YOU READY TO FOCUS ON ETERNITY?

    Segment 1: • Eternal Focus Over Election Fever: With politics in turmoil, it’s time to refocus on eternity—hell is far worse than any national crisis. • The Cost of a Lost Soul: Earthly gains are empty when eternity is on the line; there’s no hope in bartering your soul. • The Moment After Death: For the lost, the first instant after death is one of unimaginable despair—better never to have been born than to die in sin. Segment 2: • An Eternity Without Joy: Hell strips away all earthly pleasures and leaves unfulfilled desires—a misery beyond comprehension. • Billions Face Judgment: Countless people, who never responded to the Gospel, will face God’s fury on Judgment Day. • What Believers Gain: Reflect not only on escaping hell’s horrors but also on the indescribable joy that awaits believers. Segment 3: • A Life on Display: The voyeuristic trend of nonstop livestreaming shows people bored with their own lives, craving more meaning. • False Fulfillment: Watching others live out mundane moments hints at deeper issues—a form of “living” that’s far from God’s intent. • Humanism’s Rotten Fruit: The secular push for constant sharing and watching has lost the point of genuine life and relationships. Segment 4: • Resolving Conflict with Integrity: Address wrongs honestly—public sins deserve public repentance. • Real Repentance Shows: True repentance should drive us to change, accepting responsibility, and making things right with those we’ve wronged. • Forgiveness Misused: Beware of weaponizing forgiveness as a control tool rather than seeking genuine reconciliation. ___ Thanks for listening!

    PRIJE 4 D

    IS YOUR FAITH BUILT ON POLITICS OR THE GOSPEL? TIME TO DECIDE

    Segment 1: • Beware of Overcorrection: Don’t swing too far in response to political wins or losses—keep the faith focused on Kingdom values. • Celebrate, Then Refocus: Rejoice in positive change but remember, God’s mission is ongoing, and it’s time to get busy with real work. • Limit Political Saviors: Leaders can’t bring in a "Godly age"; political slogans aren’t the solution—God’s work goes beyond them. Segment 2: • Historical Futility Reminder: Knowing history’s fleeting importance—like recalling 1900’s President—keeps our focus on what truly lasts. • Judgment of Works: All we do will face judgment; make choices with eternal value in mind, not temporary pursuits. • Avoid Mystical Distractions: Mysticism can cloud focus; keep your faith centered on the Gospel, avoiding traps that pull us away. Segment 3: • Focus on the Eternal: "It’s Eternity, Stupid" reminds us to keep the church’s purpose above the chaos of political winds. • Gospel as True Change Agent: Real change comes from the Gospel, not political figures, keeping our hope on Jesus. • Truth over Politicians: The Church’s allegiance is to truth and biblical principles, not any politician—support leaders who align, but stay rooted in faith. Segment 4: • Review of Practicing the Way: John Mark Comer’s book reviewed for missing true Gospel clarity, promoting feel-good over faith-depth. • Disconnect in Christian Publishing: Many books bridge faith and culture but risk a lack of biblical substance, distancing people from true faith. • Mystical and Misguided: Comer’s approach leans into mysticism and cultural relevance, but without grounding in Gospel essentials. ___ Thanks for listening!
