Life is hopeless without God, but thankfully, He has not abandoned us to this fate. Motivated by mercy, our loving Father has taken the initiative to change our condition—offering us salvation, a place in heaven with Christ Jesus, and everlasting contentment.

In this message, Dr. Stanley explains that life without Christ is hopeless because we are:

- Directed by the world
- Dominated by Satan
- Dictated to by the flesh

Those who refuse Him not only miss out on eternal life, but also lose the blessing of His companionship and the contentment, joy and peace only He can give. And sadly, they will eventually spend eternity in Hell, alienated from God forever.

Don’t live with such hopelessness. Decide to accept God’s offer, turn away from sin and enjoy the blessings of His saving grace today.
