Very true, except the person who made that should learn how to spell correctly.

A person's WORST experience!

The silence from God is man's worst possible experience. While God is
still speaking to a person, one has a chance to repent and seek His face.
Each time God was silent, the prophets and the priests were also silent:
Herod also suffered the Lord's silence.
When God spoke, He declared "...light, and there was light"; God spoke,
and Moses was sent to liberate the Jews from Egypt; God spoke once more,
and He remembered His people and sent John the Baptist.
There's another time of silence coming: "And when he had opened the
seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half
an hour."

"...and like a sheep to the slaughter, he opened not his mouth."

Horrifying to say the least.

Re: Depart from me.
 

this is a warning to the religious, imo. Said specifically to people who thought they were accepted--probably were accepted, by their congregations. How can one explain having enough Holy Spirit to cast out demons, yet not be acceptable to God? Therefore that is prolly the wrong way to look at that. It seems to be a call to question "herd" assumptions.

Take up the cross and follow Christ as He took His cross is the key. Jesus said He did not know the miracle workers, but He knows His sheep (John 10). Sheep know His cross was their salvation, and they likewise carry their crosses to follow Him, for how can you follow Jesus and not carry a cross if He carried His in death for us? It all focuses on HIS CROSS for our sins. Not following that is Christ not knowing us.
