Episode 459 - Show Notes
- The questions of death and eternity are questions we all face. I believe the Christian faith offers the only solid answers to the final questions. The Bible tells us everything we need to know about life after death and it tells us everything we need to know with certainty. Outside of the Word of God, we are left with speculation and personal opinion.
- In the pages of Scripture God has promised eternal life to those who trust Jesus as their savior.
- The Bible is abundantly clear on one thing. We will all die and we will all stand before God and give an account for how we lived this life – specifically what we did with Jesus. You will receive either heaven or hell based on your response to Christ. Heaven and hell both await and both will last forever.
- For the believer, death does not have to be feared. Our future is secure in Christ and our name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. God has promised us eternal life.
- God has given us one life to live here on this earth. This life is about making preparation for eternity. Have you trusted Jesus as your savior? Today is a great day to make sure you are ready to meet the Lord.
