This sign is located at I-35 in Carrollton, Texas between Beltline and Crosby on the west side of the road. The ArmyNavyWarehouse paid for this sign.
I have to admit I really like this sign. The message is shown in a direct to the point way with almost an old time feel to it. I tried to get the railroad crossing in there to emphasize the need to make a decision- should you cross into faith or not. Most will reject this sign but I pray some will seek the Lord because of it.
I can hear the the new age modernist believers arguing that this might turn people off to the gospel. We are so afraid we'll give someone a bad experience we settle for not even trying to share the gospel.
Do you think Christ offended some people when he went into the temple and knocked over the money changers tables? (John 2:13-16) How about when he stood toe to toe with the Pharisees? Think about it- he made them so mad they wanted to kill him. Could you imagine your pastor having this kind of conviction? Do you have this kind of conviction? Pray for it, I do.
The devil loves for us to pretend in church. He loves when we are into the world more than Christ.
We need to preach the Word of God.
John 2:13-16
13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple courts he found men selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. 15 So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16 To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! How dare you turn my Father's house into a market!"

I drove by this sign last week and they had put up a new sign here. Don't now if it was pressured out by public opinion or that was the period the people paid for it to be up there.
Glad I snapped a picture of it when I did.
