Save or Lost?

Pastor Dennis Hankins

The Titanic was a cruise ship that was impossible to sink, or so they said.
On a tragic night in 1912 the ship struck an iceberg and sank. Many died in
that cold Atlantic Ocean.  The scene outside the White Star office in
Liverpool beggared description.  A great crowd of relatives of those who
had taken passage on that ill-fated vessel thronged the street.  On either side
of the main entrance a large board had been placed.  Above on e was
printed, KNOWN TO BE SAVED. The other, KNOWN TO BE LOST.

Every now and then, a man would appear from the office bearing a large
piece of cardboard on which was written the name of one of the
passengers.  As he held up the name, a deathly stillness swept over the
crowd; it watched to see to which of the boards he would pin the name.

You see there were only two categories there - the saved and the lost, just as
there are in the Scripture.
