You need to weigh in on the cost factor. And count the costs of being a disciple of Jesus Christ. It will cost you popularity, it will cost you promotion perhaps at times. It will cost you an easy life. You will have to discipline yourself, you will have to buffet your body. You will have to say “No” to temptation, and you will have to say “No” to this world. You will have to break with the crowd. You will have to be willing to stand alone for Christ. You will have to be willing to walk to the beat of a different drummer. And to step out of the crowd even if no one follows after Jesus Christ. You would be willing to stand if you were the only person in the world for Jesus Christ. That’s the cost factor. You will have to be willing to suffer persecution for Christ, and let me tell you, it will come. It might even cost you your life.

He is not coming to play games. He not is coming to be docile. He is coming to dominate. He is coming to slaughter. He is the King of king’s and He is the Lord of lord’s. You need to make terms of peace with this coming King or you will be subjected in damnation forever.

Let me just cut to the bottom line of the bottom line. You must transfer The ownership of all that you are and all that you have to all that He is.

That’s what He is saying.
Your life is no longer your life, it is now His life.
You time is no longer your time, it is now His time.
Your possessions are no longer your possessions, they are now His possessions.
Your future is no longer your future, it is now His future.
Your treasure is no longer your treasure, it is now His treasure.
And you have transferred all that you are and all that you have to all that He is.

That's what it is to meet His terms of peace. This is your eternal soul. This is the only life you will ever live. This deals with the only eternity you will ever have.

Oh, how we ought to search our hearts here today. “Have I come to this place of total commitment in my life? Have I yielded my life to the sovereign Lordship of Him who died upon the cross for me?”

"Almost every time someone say's "I'm leaving! Bye!", they stick around for about 5 minutes to see if people say "Bye" or not, and to see what they'll say about them once they think they're gone. And, some of us don't leave at all, but continue to spy. You know who you are…" ~Sam

Very, very true.

"This seems to be a cheerful world, Donatus, when I view it from this fair garden under the shadow of these vines. But if I climb some great mountain and look out over the wide lands, you know very well what I would see – brigands on the road, pirates on the seas, in the amphitheaters men murdering each other to please the applauding crowds, and under all roofs I see misery and selfishness. It is really a bad world, Donatus, an incredibly bad world.
Yet in the midst of it, I have found a quiet and holy people. They have discovered a joy which is a thousand times better than any pleasure of this sinful life. They are despised and persecuted but they care not, These people, Donatus, are Christians and I am one of them." - Cyprian; Bishop of Carthage, written to his friend Donatus

A sloth made of glass wouldn't be all bad, except for the fact that sloths sometimes grab their own arms, thinking they are tree branches, and fall to their deaths below. So if the sloth was glass, he would break when he fell and make all the other sloths hyper. –Katie S.
