Where will you spend eternity?

 

The wickedness of men and women on earth today is on the increase. The world we live in is not certain; perhaps as you are reading this tract you may not be able to finish it before you step into eternity. Perhaps you may not rise to see tomorrow or the next hour. The question is, if you die now, are you ready to meet your Maker? The Bible says that the end of the world is coming soon, and the Maker of this world is going to judge every person’s attitude towards His word. “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment”(Heb 9:27)

The wages of sin is Death (Romans 6:23a). Rejecting God’s word for any situation in our life is sin. This means we have missed the mark of God, and that is sin. For the scripture says the soul that sinneth, it shall die.” (Ezekiel 18:4b) Death here means eternal separation from God.

 

If you say you have no sin, you have lied. Do you or have you bowed down yourself to other gods other than almighty God? Do you take the name of the Lord your God in vain? Do you Honour your father and your mother? Do you kill? Do you commit adultery or fornication? Do you steal? Do you bear false witness against your neighbour? Do you covet your neighbour’s house, wife, or anything that is your neighbour’s? You see my friend; if we go by the list here alone you cannot escape the wrath of God. We are warned in the Scripture, that:

“The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly. That day is a day of wrath”.Zephaniah1:14-15a. A

“Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment…” (Hebrews 9:27)

This reminds me of an old song that says:

Where will you spend eternity?

This question comes to you and me!

Tell me, what shall your answer be?

Where will you spend eternity?

Eternity! eternity!

Where will you spend eternity?

Most people have an uneasy feeling when confronted with such a thought. Many try to comfort themselves with man-made religion, traditions, while others try to explain it away. Many simply block the thought out of their minds, preferring to “keep busy” with day-to-day life. But what could be more important than where one will spend eternity? Many think that when they die that is the end of everything, while others think they will incarnate into a bird, a tree, a dog, or whatever comes into their minds. Surely, the moment you pass out of this world you will find out this is not so. But will you spend eternity in Heaven, in the glorious presence of the Infinite Creator God, or Hell, banished to misery and intolerable suffering without hope of relief? There are no paroles. There is no more important question that you must face than this question of eternity. Should you die right now, your destiny is sealed. Where will you be? Think of this my friend as you are reading this tract. You know what; there is never a man or woman so strong and was able to overcome death and sickness. No! I know not such person.

But thank God who has provided a way for those who truly want to spend eternity with Him in peace and love, in His Kingdom. Jesus said in John 14 verse 6 I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Jesus Christ only is the bridge, the mediator between man and God

(1Timothy 2:5). He is the only way to eternal life. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.(St. John 3:16).

 

 All those who believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour have passed from death unto life (St. John 5:24). I encourage you to take the advice God offers in His word.

“…Christ suffered for you… He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in His mouth. When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats… Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.”(1 Peter 2:21, 22. 3:18). The Lord has truly made a provision for you to spend eternity with Him. You may have your thought, idea or philosophy about it, but the Bible says,

There is a way that seems right to a man but the end is death(Proverbs 14:12).

 

There is hell burning with fire and brimstone, where the fire isn’t quenched and the worm never dies (Mark 9:48). No man needs to go there for it was created for the Devil and his angels. You can escape it if you want, by accepting the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour right now! You are NOT made the way you are. As a sinner Jesus Christ can change you, His blood can make the vilest sinner clean (1 John 1:7)!

Why not turn to Him right now? Choose you this day where you want to spend eternity? You can only answer with an action. You may decide to throw off this tract, tear it to pieces, neglect its message and warning, postpone the day of repentance and continue in sin; then you have rejected eternity with God. . Everlasting destruction in hell is sure for every sinner who refuses or neglects to repent. If you are really serious about the salvation of your soul and living in eternity with God, then do what the men of old did in Bible days when they heard the Word of God as you have heard:

They were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.(Acts 2:37-38). Tell God you are sorry about the life style you have been living. Don’t hide or cover anyone of them. Confess your sins, forsake the sins and turn to God. Do you want this Life? God is ready to give it to you now as you pray:

“Almighty God, I pray in Jesus Name that you look down with mercy on me, a guilty sinner. Forgive me my sins of … (name them one by one – don’t hide any). I promise never to go back to them again by your power. Please make me your child now, and cleanse me from all sins. I give my life to Jesus Christ and accept Him as my Lord into my heart now. Thank you, O God, for I believe you have answered my prayer. In Jesus Christ’s Name I have prayed. Amen”.

Do this right NOW as urgently and correctly as you would carry out a doctor’s instructions. He will change your life and set your feet on the narrow path of godliness and righteousness. Then eternity with God in heaven will be sure.
