So, what’s your take on Jimmy from Richmond’s email? For your edification, here it is in full:
What would God need to do in order to show you that Jesus is the only One to surrender your life to–and have you asked God for this?
Also: When you die one day and stand before God what will you say to Him when He asks you why you have rejected His Son that He sent to save you? Would you blame Him because He has given you free will?
Jimmy from Richmond
