BEHOLD, NOW IS THE ACCEPTABLE TIME

Scripture:  2 Corinthians 6:2 “For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.”

    Procrastination is putting off till tomorrow what you should do today!  For so many, salvation is the thing they keep putting off.  They say “not today, there’s always tomorrow”, but that’s just not true!  We don’t know how much time we have here on the earth.  We’re not promised a tomorrow!  Therefore the command here in this passage of scripture tells us now is the accepted time. Not tomorrow!  Today!  Now is the day of salvation!  Not tomorrow! Today!  Have you put off salvation for your life?  Are you waiting for a better time to get save?  
    Maybe you’re waiting till you get older or maybe you’re waiting till you have a certain feeling!  Salvation is not based on feelings, but rather facts!  The fact is that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. The fact is that there is none righteous no not one.  The fact is that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.  The fact is that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. The fact is that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.  
     The decision to be saved is to be made now. Now is the only reasonable time to be saved. There may be no tomorrow; in fact, there may not even be one hour left for any of us. Any person's life can be snatched away any moment of any day by accident, disease, or heart attack. (Preacher's Outline and Sermon Bible – Commentary)
    “And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve...but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" (Joshua 24:15).
