"In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;" - Ephesians 1:7 By now, most people have either watched or heard about the incredibly popular game show hosted by Regis Philbin. "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" has been a huge success for ABC. It continues to garner the top spots in the television ratings. Now, I don't watch the game show, but I understand that it is played something like this: One contestant at a time sits across from Regis and is asked a series of questions. After each question, Regis asks "Is that your final answer?" Each question answered correctly increases the amount of money earned. If the contestant answers all of the questions correctly, then they win one million dollars. They have the option of quitting at any time during the game and taking the money they have already earned. It amazes me how many people are seemingly spellbound by this show. They are drawn to the lure of winning the one million dollars, knowing that THEIR chances of appearing on the show are about one in five billion, and THEIR chances of winning the money is even smaller. Very, very few receive the riches. I'm here to tell you there's an easier way. You see, instead of answering a series of questions correctly to become rich, you really need to answer but one question. And the great thing about it is, EVERYONE can participate...and ALL who answer the simple yes or no question correctly become instantly rich. Oh, you are interested in learning what that simple question is? Here it is.... "Will you repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of your life?" If you answer "Yes," then you are an instant millionaire. Millionaire? Yes, millionaire. Actually it's quite a bit more than that. You see, you can't really put a price tag on eternal life. It's priceless, and yet the correct answer to one simple question secures the prize. Sadly, very, very few receive the riches found in Christ Jesus. But, today, right now, you have a choice to make. You are a contestant in the game of your life. Regis isn't asking this question to you, the Lord Jesus Christ is... "Who wants to be a millionaire?" Is that your final answer?
