The Axe Is Laid unto the Root of the Trees - Lk. 3:9
By Sean Morris
Info:
From God's perspective, the fame and fortune of normal human existence can be summed up in the description, "the axe is laid unto the root of the trees"! Ah, these fearful words... what do they mean? Metaphorical terms like these help the human mind grasp the true nature of man's utter dependency upon God. We, as a defenseless Tree, will be hewn down by the axe of Almighty God if we live a life which (in God's terms) merits the fire. This fate belongs to those Trees (humans) that bring not forth good fruit unto God. So, my reader, the question is: Do you bring forth good fruit to God? Are you pleasing God with your life? Or, do you just please yourself and those you love? Let the words of John the Baptist be a divine wake-up call for you to reconsider your present lifestyle while there is still time left to change!
