\u201cFor I know their works and their thoughts, and the time is coming to gather all nations and tongues. And they shall come and shall see my glory,\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThen I saw another angel flying directly overhead, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on earth, to every nation and tribe and language and people.\u00a0\u00a0And he said with a loud voice, \u201cFear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come, and worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the springs of water.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Zechariah 8:23\u00a0\u00a0Thus says the LORD of hosts: In those days ten men from the nations of every tongue shall take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, \u2018Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Revelation 7:9\u00a0\u00a0 After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,\u00a0\u00a0and crying out with a loud voice, \u201cSalvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!\u201d<\/p>\n

Isaiah 55:5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Behold, you shall call a nation that you do not know, and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the LORD your God, and of the Holy One of Israel, for he has glorified you.<\/p>\n

Isaiah 60:3\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.<\/p>\n

Acts 13:47\u00a0\u00a0For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, \u201c\u2018I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.\u2019\u201d\u00a0\u00a0And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.<\/p>\n

Isaiah 45:22<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0\u201cTurn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.\u00a0By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: \u2018To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.\u2019\u00a0\u201cOnly in the LORD, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him.<\/p>\n

Romans 14:10<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God;\u00a0 for it is written, \u201cAs I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.\u201d \u00a0So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.<\/p>\n

Philippians 2:9<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,\u00a0so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,\u00a0and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.<\/p>\n

Two points to make today and for us to remember. \u00a0The eternal nature of the Gospel offered to all, and that everyone will bow to Jesus either now or at judgement. \u00a0Bowing now to Jesus means we see the need for redemption and choose to commit with all our heart, soul and mind to humbly serve, honor, follow and obey Him. \u00a0We are promised eternity with Him. \u00a0Bowing after death, though it will be done by everyone, it will not come with eternity with Him but with eternal separation in hell. \u00a0The day of salvation is now. \u00a0The day of grace, mercy and love is now. \u00a0Our culture would tell us this is foolish but to those who believe it is forgiveness, peace, joy, hope and love. \u00a0Our culture would tell us this is a lie but to those who believe it is heart, mind and soul deep truth. \u00a0Our culture would say it is weakness but to those who believe it is power. \u00a0Choose to bow now and humbly serve Him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
