The message
from Bishop Dag Heward-Mills.
Titanic was
presume to be largest, safest, and strongest
luxury ship in the world before it embark on it's disastrous maiden
voyage in April 1912. All kinds of people were welcome on the ship for it's
first voyage. The rich, famous, elite, women, children, families and all staff
of the ship were all happy to be on board. It was billed to be the ship that
could not sink, but it did not sink on it's first journey from Southampton to
New York. This was one of the greatest tragidies of all time.
After the
ship sink, two list were presented at the office of the White Star Company (the
company which built Titanic). The list was simple. It had only two sections:
'LOST' and 'SAVE' . People came to read this list to find out if their loved
ones had survived. Interestingly, before the journey so many things were
important whether they worked on the ship or were on vacation? Whether they
were rich or poor, whether they were millionaires or peasants, whether they
were stockbrokers or not, whether they were in first class or economy class,
whether they were men or women, whether they had a lot of luggage or nor, but
after the sinking of Titanic none of these things matted anymore. Only one
thing matted, whether they SAVE or LOST.
Dear friends
that is how eternity will be. A time will come when none of these things we
have on earth will matter. A time will come when it will not matter whether you
are a man or woman! A time will come when it will not matter whether you are
rich or poor! What will matter is whether you are 'SAVE' or 'LOST' on that day
you die and meet your creator! Give your life to Jesus Christ today and if you
already have, live for him.
