"Unconditional Surrender Now"

On this day in 1945, Emperor Hirohito of Japan announced news of his country's unconditional surrender in World War II over a radio broadcast to the Japanese people. For the Japanese people, this was a horrifying thought! Most of them invisioned (because of propagana) slavery, torture, humiliation and death.
What actually happened was, they were eventually "Set Free". Since then, Japan as a nation, has experienced more freedom than it has throughtout it's entire history. Sometimes Good things come out of the bad. Sometimes, unconditional surrender can lead to happiness. (believe it or not)
Similarly, many wives have the same fears as the Japanese did when it comes to surrendering to a husband, as commanded in the bible. Also, similarly, many men (and women) have the same exact fears, when it comes to surrendering to Christ.
Being human as we are, for many of us, it takes a catastrophe of earth shaking proportions before we are ready to unconditionally surrender to Christ. (I know - It did for me) It may be hard to understand, but you can not be totally free, until you surrender.
It's God's order of things. Just like a Seed has to die before you can plant it and begin a new life, one must surrender before they can be totally set free. If you are a new Christian, this might be a bit confusing and hard to swallow, but if you want to experience freedom and peace of mind like you've never known it, surrender unconditionally now.
