Acts 17:30--31 (NKJV)
30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising .

King James Version (KJV)

²² But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
²³ Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

THE NEED FOR WELLS

   A. THE DAY OF JUDGMENT...
      1. There is a day of judgment coming
         a. In which the world will be judged - Ac 17:30-31
         b. In which we will all stand before Christ - Ro 14:10-12; 2 Co
            5:10
      2. A day of salvation for some, condemnation for others
         a. Some will hear good news - Mt 26:34
         b. Others will hear terrible words - Mt 26:41
      -- It will be too late to begin "digging wells" if we are
         spiritually "thirsty" on that day!

   B. THE TIMES OF TEMPTATION...
      1. The Christian life is fraught with temptation
         a. Because of our adversary, the devil - 1Pe 5:8
         b. Because of our own fleshly desires - Jm 1:14; Mk 7:21-23
      2. Temptations should not be taken lightly
         a. We can become hardened by the deceitfulness of sin - He 3:
            12-13
         b. We might fall away during the time of temptation - Lk 8:13
      -- Do we have "wells" to quench our spiritual thirst when we are
         tempted?

   C. THE PERIODS OF TRIBULATION...
      1. The Christian life is not always easy
         a. As Jesus warned the apostles - Jn 16:33
         b. As Paul warned the disciples - Ac 14:21-22
      2. The trials or tribulations we may face can be quite diverse
         a. Some because we are Christians - 2Ti 3:12
         b. Others because we share in the frailties of life:  sickness,
            pain, death; economic recession, loss of jobs; terrorism,
            war, natural calamities
      -- We better have our "wells" dug in advance if we are survive
         such "droughts"!
