THE GAME THAT'S NOT FUN

One of the games that my elementary children loved to play, was a great exercise in teaching them right from left. We used an old concrete gym floor,so I painted a straight line on the floor, with the numbers 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10 on both sides of the line. I had students stand ,facing each other at the "0" and would then call out a math problem, such as 2x2 to the left. Whichever student jumped to the answer first, received the points for their team!The only problem, was that some of the students wouldn't think for themselves and would copy what the other person was doing.Inevitably, they would jump the wrong direction! They followed the wrong direction. The couldn't think on their own, and they
followed what the other person was doing.
Scripture tells us that in the latter days there will be more and more people who will be unable to stand on their own, and they won't be able to give a defense of the gospel.They will just fall in line with everyone else....
What a shame, when the hope that lies within us is so worth it!
This was just a game; it was fun, and it was over after 60 minutes!
Hell isn't a game; it isn't fun, and it will never end!
