Summary: About 100 years ago, a massive ship, the Titanic, sank in the North Atlantic. When I was a boy the preachers used to talk about the Titanic all the time. They used it as an illustration of a world that is sinking without Christ, without God and without hope. But at the same time, they seemed to ignore it. There was a saying that while the ship was sinking, people were dancing on the Titanic. And in fact, hundreds died by drowning; others managed to escape in the boats that were provided. And you know, the message of Jesus Christ is precisely that. There is hope of salvation from sinking into the eternal darkness if we trust in Jesus Christ and jump on the boat of salvation which is what Jesus Christ did on the cross of Calvary. So when I was a boy, I understood what it means. If you die without Christ, you will sink, so to speak, to the bottom of the sea. Only it’s even worse than that. But if you believe in Jesus Christ and trust Him with all your heart and believe that the blood that He gave on the cross purifies you from all sin, and if you receive Him with a broken, repentant heart and believe in Him, you will be forgiven and have eternal life. Are you dancing on a sinking ship? Or have you found salvation through Jesus Christ? It’s the deepest question that you have to answer.
