YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE THERE
Sakkie Parsons
Translated from Afrikaans: “Jy gaan die res van jou lewe daar deurbring”
We have to think very well about our future, for we are going to spend the rest of our lives there.
Not only are we going to spend our lives there here on earth – but we are also going to spend eternity there and as far as eternity is concerned, there is only one of two places where we are going to spend it, either in Heaven or in Hell.
Jesus has already done everything to make it possible for us to live in Heaven forever and of our residence there, He Himself say:
JOHN 14:2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?
JOHN 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.
So, there is going to be a home for me in Heaven when I leave this life.
Now the choice lies entirely with you and me:
JOHN 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him (Jesus) should not perish but have eternal life.
JOHN 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him (Jesus).
JOHN 3:18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, (they will live with Jesus forever after their exit on this earth) but whoever does not believe is condemned already, (and will spend the rest of their future in hell forever) because he has not believed in the Name of the only Son of God.
JOHN 1:12 But to all who did receive him (Jesus), who believed in his Name, He gave the right to become children of God,
With what I have now shared with you in mind, just think about this:
Most people are preparing and planning for their retirement life here on earth. I believe you too – But very few people prepare or plan for their life's departure from this earth.
Have you?
To put it in another way:
Do you know where you are going to spend your eternal future after this life?
Greetings,
