Is it time to settle your tab?

A practice in bars across America is called the tab.  Owners of bars, for trusted customers, will sometimes allow them to set up a tab and charge drinks and food to that tab throughout the evening to be settled at the end of business, that day!

In the book of Romans in the scripture it is written that “all have fallen short of the glory of God”,  in other words everyone has sinned against God by not obeying His laws and His instructions for living.  It also says that death is the wages of sin.  That’s the bad news, we all are condemned since all of us. have sinned against God.  There is good news though, God loved us so much that He gave His only son to die on the cross to pay our sin debt. To receive that forgiveness we need to confess our sins, repent, (be genuinely sorry for our actions), and accept Christ as our Savior and ask for His forgiveness!

So keeping with my illustration at the start;  We have a a tab we can pay and God is the Bar owner and, living in perilous times, we don’t know when the bar is closing, so it might be the right time to settle our tab.  After all we can’t settle things after the doors are closed.  Are you willing to take that risk!?
