Loving the Lack of Certainty: Mark 10:15

I
Some denominations comfort the affluent
Some convict the comfortable
Some comfort the afflicted, as Jesus went
Doing in Palestine during His ministry for Israel

II
So, let us turn on it's political head
The denominations who sing the easy song:
Once saved always saved (Yes, He knows what you said)
Between you & God, so do not make a rule to sing

III
Before Matthew chapter 28, Jesus gives 27 chapters
That includes the LORD PRAYER, Pater Noster,
And the Sermon on the Mount, even heathens love:
Are you a child of God, I mean really His son or daughter?

IV
Mark 10: 15 has a comfortable warning:
Verily I say unto you, If you do not receive ...
The Kingdom of Heaven as a little child,
thou shalt not enter into it" - Be not deceived ...

V
I am not preaching Salvation by Works
Jesus paid it ALL, so it is Grace, His GIFT
But there is a way to receive (Do I hear an Amen?)
Unless you receive all Jesus did as a child ... whose Kingdom of Heaven?
