If I should puncture your arm with a needle and you should be unable to feel it, your anxiety would be intense, your condition physically would be regarded as very precarious indeed. When I come to talk to you, of your soul’s salvation, and you say you have no feeling, it shows the peril of your position. Your very *indifference* ought to *arouse* you to thoughtfulness and action-— Illustration: Matthew 9:9. Excuses. *I am not CONCERNED.* If a man were *asleep* in a burning building, he would be *more in danger* of losing his life, than he would be if he were *awake*. So, there is more danger of a man losing his soul, if he is unconcerned, than there would be if he had some *interest*. God calls you to wake up and think about these things— WHEREFORE he saith, *Awake thou that sleepest, and arise* from the dead, and *Christ shall give thee light*. _Ephesians 5:14._ I TELL you, Nay; but, *except ye repent, ye* shall all likewise perish. _Luke 13:3._ AND as it is appointed unto men once to die, but *after this the judgment*. _Hebrews 9:27._ *AND ye will not come to me*, that ye might have life. _John 5:40._ It you are lost, it will be *your fault*. These Scriptures teach that you will not come to Christ and that you prefer darkness to light, and unbelief to faith, and will not turn to God and be baptized that you may have eternal life in Jesus Christ. HE that *believeth* and is *baptized shall* be *saved*; but he that *believeth not shall be damned*. _Mark 16:16._ AND these shall *go away into everlasting punishment*. _Matthew 25:46._ You *go away*, God does not send you— THE wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that *forget God*. _Psalms 9:17._ You in your indifference are “*forgetting*” God, not necessarily living a wicked life— HOW shall we escape, if we *neglect so great salvation*? _Hebrews 2:3._ Read: II Thessalonians 1:1-9. Illustration: Luke 16:19-31. Excuses. *The INDIFFERENT neglecting his soul.* Listen to what God says to the indifferent. His word ought to lead you to the most thoughtful consideration of His ways. AWAKE thou that *sleepest*, and arise from the dead. _Ephesians 5:14._ Your *indifference* has put you to *sleep* and God calls you to *awake*. TURN ye, . . . turn ye for *why will ye die*?
