“Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” – Psalm 139:23-24 KJV
Christian life is not about playing it safe. It’s about living life on the edge. It’s about taking a leap of faith even when there’s no safety net in place. “Search Me O God,” is one of the most daring prayer that we can pray to the LORD. We must be prepared to be examined up to the deepest core and chambers of our heart so that God will expose it to us for any sin or iniquity. We cannot do this if we are self-righteous, self-exalting, and self-glorifying like the pharisees. There is nothing hidden in the eyes of God but we must be humble to ask Him and confess to Him our weaknesses, our guilt, or our shame. God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Let us be willing to admit and turn from our sins. Repent and be saved.

“And it came to pass, when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire;
2And had taken the women captives, that were therein: they slew not any, either great or small, but carried them away, and went on their way.
3So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives.
4Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
5And David’s two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
6And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.

You’ve got to watch this video “Letter From Hell“:
A YOUNG MAN’S LETTER FROM HELL Script
The following is a dramatic presentation. It was written by a fictitious High School Student named Josh, to a friend named Zack.
Although Zack had every opportunity to tell Josh about Jesus… he didn’t.
They were best friends. They played soccer together. They went to classes together. They partied together. They shared their lives with each other.
But there is one thing Zack held back from Josh… his personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
The rest of the story is simple and sad…
A few too many beers… A tragic drive home… A crash… a death, a funeral… A Letter
Here is that letter… A letter from Hell.
Dear Zack,
I died today. It’s a lot different than I expected. You see, I always thought that dying would bring me to a world that is foggy and hazy. But this place is crystal clear… It’s even more real than my life on Earth.
I can think. I can talk. I can even feel.
Right after the wreck I could feel my spirit leaving my body. It was the weirdest thing, Zack. I thought I heard you screaming out to me, man. Must have been just imagining things.
At first I was just standing in line, getting registered I guess. They asked me for my name…and began to look in this thing they called the Book of Life.
I guess they couldn’t find it though because this huge angel standing next to me grabbed me by the arm and started dragging me away. I was terrified. I had no idea what was going on. I asked the angel where he was taking me, but he didn’t answer. So I asked him again…
Finally, he told me that only those, whose names were written in the Book of Life, could enter into Heaven and the rest would be condemned to Hell forever.
Man I was scared. The angel threw me into some kind of holding cell. Where I’ve been sitting and thinking for a long long time. Do you want to know what I’ve been thinking about?
I’ve been thinking about YOU.
Zack, You’re a Christian. You told me so yourself. I mean we talked about it three different times today.
Kelly brought it up and you laughed it off. Coach Adams brought it up and you changed the subject.
I mean, it came up right before the wreck. Well the question I can’t get out of my mind is this, Zack. Why haven’t you ever told me about how to become a Christian?
You say you are my friend, but if you really were you would have told me about this Jesus and told me how to escape this terrible place that I’m headed for.
I can feel my heart pounding in my chest, the angels who have been chosen to cast me into hell are coming down the hallway. I can hear their footsteps.
I have heard of this Hell. They call it the Lake of Fire.
I can’t stand it, Zack. I am terrified. No! The angels are at the door. Oh no, no! They’re coming in and they’re pointing at me. They’re grabbing me and carrying me out of the room.
I already can smell the burning sulfur and brimstone. I can see the edge of the cliff where Hell burns.
This is it. I am without hope.
We’re coming closer, closer, closer. My heart is bursting with fear. They’re holding me over the flames. I am damned forever.
This is it. They are throwing me in. Fire, Pain, HELL.
Why Zack? Why didn’t you ever tell me about Jesus?
Your friend, Josh
P.S. Wish you were here.
Don’t Bother

Dear Friend, Don’t be deceived. God will wipe away sinners. You can be afraid when you read this, but it’s a true warning from God. Christ is angry with the world because of sins, and you still preach about love. He would agree with you preaching love. But he would want you to preach the consequences of sin. Did you think christ is happy with sins. The more human sin, the more Christ is beating. Our sins is beating him Everytime.
So flee from it. I don’t only preach about love of God.
I preach repentance because he send me to. Repent dear.
God is loving. But that won’t stop your judgment, only you knowing the sin and flee from it, will save you from judgement.
Do you think Christ is happy as they are falling like this into hell because of sins?.
You can preach God love and follow God love.
But without you Repenting and flee from it, my dear judge is in the front waiting.
