  2. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Introduction Some decisions in life are very easy, others are quite difficult, made only with much prayer and great concern. The Bible gives us stories of individuals who had to make decisions. Some made good choices, others did not.

  3. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Decisions Made Against God A. Lot’s wife. Will she serve Jehovah or the sinful cities she longed for (Gen. 19:26; Lk 17:32). B. The rich young ruler. He had to decide between God and his wealth (Lk. 18:18-23). C. Pontius Pilate. He thought he could get by with NOT making a decision (Mt. 27:24).

  4. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Decisions Made Against God D. Felix. Was his real reason for listening to Paul to hear the truth or get a bribe (Ac. 24:24-27)? E. Agrippa. Would he endure the loss of social standing and public respectability by becoming a Christian (Ac. 26:28,29)?

  5. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Decisions Made For God A. Moses. He decided to serve God and His people instead of the Egyptians (Heb. 11:24-26). B. Joshua. He decided to serve God, persuading his household to do the same (Jo. 24:14-21). C. Ruth. She decided that her life would be one of devotion (Ruth 1:16).

  6. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Decisions Made For God D. The prodigal son. He decided that he could not run his own life, and that he needed his father (Lk. 15:18). E. Cornelius. When he was taught more perfectly about the Way, he obeyed the Lord (Ac. 10:46-48).

  7. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Conclusion You must decide. Indecision with all the facts, is a decision against the issue. Elijah made the people decide between Jehovah and Baal (1Kgs. 18:21). We must make a decision on whether or not we are going to follow Christ (Mt. 12:30; Lk. 9:23).
