October Surprise

maxresdefault

I’ve heard more this election year than I ever recall hearing about the “October Surprise.” As I understand it, this phrase is a reference to presidential election year bombshells that are dropped the month prior to the election in November.

Here’s an October Surprise for you: the outcome of the Presidential Election next month doesn’t matter.

That’s right. It doesn’t matter.

It will not impact one single soul’s eternity. Democrat? Republican? It doesn’t matter. There will be both in heaven.

There will be both in hell.

A donkey or an elephant doesn’t determine your eternity.

A cross does.

Truth (which, based on the candidates’ track record, seems to be quite elusive): A Savior died on that cross to pay the ultimate price for your sins. Believe it or don’t.

But the result of whether or not you believe it will have much farther-reaching impact on your eternity than any presidential election ever will.

Don’t let your eternity be a surprise.

  1. Isn’t that what the writer of Ecclesiastes was saying to us, that everything under the sun is meaningless? One thing matters.
