Where
will you spend eternity ? One day an angel will place one foot on the sea and the other on the dry land and lifting his hand to heaven, swear by Him that liveth forever and ever, that “Time shall be no more”! (Rev. 10:5-6) Then, the sun will go out like a candle in the wind, the moon will turn to dripping blood, the stars will fall from heaven. The sky will roll away like a scroll and the earth will melt with burning heat! The clocks of time will all stop and the ‘wheel of eternity’ will begin! A thousand years will come and go - A million years will be like a drop in the bucket and eternity’s wheel will just have begun to move! Have you ever thought about the eternal destiny of your soul? Have you given this important matter any serious thought? You haven’t! Then wait a minute and let me give you some FACTS. You say that you are not interested - then, you must be a very foolish person, not to be interested in something that involves your most treasured possession, your own soul! LET ME TELL YOU MY STORY, FOR I WAS A LOT LIKE YOU! For many years I neglected my soul’s salvation, not caring to hear anything about God or eternity. I was in good health and physical condition, knew how to dress well, was successful in business and felt that I could look after myself without help from anyone! Then one day God spoke to me. I began to read Gospel literature and I began to THINK. God impressed upon me that, although I knew how to get along well with people, how to look after my body and how to make money successfully, I wasn’t giving any attention to my soul and its eternal destiny. Finally, after a struggle with myself and the devil, I yielded my life totally into the hands of my Maker. I invited Him to transform it from being useless, sinful and ugly to something useful, clean and righteous. In June 1957, in a little motel in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan I knelt beside my bed and received new life from Jesus Christ. My life was completely changed! What joy, peace and happiness has been mine from that date to this! Jesus said: “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul”? (Mark 8:36-37) Your soul is the most valuable possession in the entire world. IT IS YOUR SOUL THAT IS AT STAKE! If you perish and “are lost”, you will suffer the consequences. Your father, mother, husband, wife, children or friend will have nothing to do or say about your fate. It will be your own personal doom! Jesus was conveying to us the great importance of the value of the individual soul. He said, the soul of man is priceless - beyond the worth of money or possessions! Its worth is greater than the monetary value of earthly possessions. In other words, if you became so wealthy that you owned Canada, USA, Asia, Europe, Africa and the Islands of the sea - if you were the sole owner of the entire world and died in your sins, went to hell and lost your soul, WHAT GOOD WOULD IT BE? What good are the influential friends, all the popularity, fame and riches when your body is six feet under the sod and your soul is burning in a devil’s hell? Jesus said, “What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world but lose his own soul”. YOUR SOUL IS ETERNAL and long after your body is dead, your soul will live on in either Heaven or Hell. Every human being is on a journey to eternity. There can be no turning back and no way to miss this appointment! TIME MARCHES ON AND ONE DAY YOU WHO ARE READING THESE LINES, SHOULD CHRIST TARRY, WILL LAY COLD AND STIFF IN YOUR GRAVE! AND DON’T THINK THAT CREMATION WILL CHANGE ANYTHING! The Holy Bible ~ The Bible says, “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment”. (Heb. 9:27) The Bible states it clearly. Death is not the worst that could happen to you - IT IS INEVITABLE! The sad thing is to face death alone without God, and then to be judged and doomed to eternal torment forever because of rejecting the Saviour. Death is sure and Judgment is sure! WHERE WILL YOU SPEND ETERNITY? Think about it. The Holy Bible says there are only two places - HEAVEN - a place of happiness, peace and joy. (Matt. 25:34; Rev. 21:4) - HELL, a place where there is agony, pain and torment. (Matt. 25:41-46; Luke 16:22-28) ~ Holy Bible ETERNITY IS FOREVER - There is a term in Algebra called infinity. The word ‘infinity’ defines a number that is so large it has lost meaning. For example, if you multiplied a number by itself and kept doing so, eventually the sum would become so great it would lose all meaning. We would call that immense number, infinity, for it is too great to comprehend! This is the way it is with eternity. It is forever! Our human minds cannot comprehend it. It is so great it cannot be measured, because it will never end! One day an angel will come down from Heaven, put one foot on the sea and one foot on the dry land and swear with his hand raised to Heaven, “that time is no longer to be.” (Rev. 10:5-6) From that moment, TIME WILL BE NO MORE AND ETERNITY WILL BEGIN! God will stop the clocks of time and start the wheel of eternity. Round and round it will go and will never stop. And eternity will begin! ETERNITY, ETERNITY, ETERNITY! Oh, sinner, where will you spend Eternity? Either in Heaven or Hell. Today you must decide. Please choose to serve God. Receive Jesus as your Saviour, Master and Lord. Pray this prayer: “Oh, God be merciful to me a sinner, and save me, in Jesus’ Name!”, and you will be saved! Holy Bible ~ The Holy Bible says, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16). |
