There Is A Choice You Need To Make Today!

In the book of Luke 16:19 - 25, the story was told of two people that lived here on earth and died. When they opened their eyes on the other side of eternity, the two of them found themselves in two different places. The two men were the rich man and Lazarus. The rich man was in torment in hell. Note that he was not in hell because of his money, but because of how he lived his life on earth. The rich man could also recognise Lazarus in Heaven. Lazarus did not go to Heaven because he was poor, but because of the life he lived while on earth.


You need to make a choice today as to where you want to spend your eternity (Life after death) with Lazarus in Heaven or the rich man in hell? It is your choice. Hell and Heaven are real and the truth is where you go depends on what you are doing now, I mean whom you are following now in this world.

Note that is appointed unto man once to die and after death there is judgement. Believers are the ones appointed to preach the message of salvation; not angels. If you refuse to believe them you are on your own. Hear the conversation between the rich man in hell and Abraham in Heaven.
"Then he said, 'I beg you therefore, father that you would send him (Lazarus) to my father's house for I have five brothers that he may testify to them lest they also come to this place (hell) of torment.' Abraham said to him, 'they have Moses and other prophets let them hear them,' and he said, 'No father, but if one goes to them from the dead they will repent,' but he said to him, 'if they do not hear Moses and the prophets neither will they be persuaded through one raised from the dead."
                                                                       Luke 16:27 - 31 (NKJV)
Make your choice now. Tomorrow may be too late!!! 


Are you saying what can I do? Jesus assures us there is no one who comes to Him that He will cast away. If you want to choose Heaven you must accept Jesus. Accept Him today and repent of your sins and turn from them. This done, you have Heaven in view. Romans 8:1 says "there is therefore now no condemnation for them who are in Christ Jesus." If we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Accept Him now into your life by confessing your sins and repenting of them. If you are ready, say this prayer - "Lord Jesus, I come to you; I recognize I am sinner. I confess my sins and ask you to come into my life. From today, I will serve you with all of my heart."

Thank God you are a part of His glorious Kingdom. Look for a Bible believing Church where you will be taught on how to maintain a relationship with God and serve Him. God bless you!
