STARTING THE RACE IS GOOD…FINISHING TO GET THE PRIZE IS BETTER!!

It’s really amazing that we put so much investment in our lives here on earth, which is so SHORT, what ? 80, 90 years? (some of us are already past half of our lifetime) and we have no investment in our eternal destiny. THAT TIME IS ETERNAL FOLKS, NOT 100 years, not a 1000 years, not a million years, but ETERNITY. ETERNITY IS EVERLASTING. YOU WILL SPEND ETERNITY SOME PLACE, BUT WHERE DEPENDS ON YOU!

Some people think this must be Hell here right now, or Heaven is what you make it. Well the bible says hell is a place, heaven is a place. 1^st Corinthians chapter 2 verse 9, However as it is written, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”

WHO ARE THOSE WHO LOVE HIM? See the following Scriptures Deuteronomy 7 verse 9. “Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; He is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and KEEP HIS COMMANDS. 1^st John chapter 5 verse 3 “This is love of God to OBEY HIS COMMANDS, and his commands are not burdensome.” 1^st Corinthians chapter 7 verse 19 “…keeping God’s COMMANDS is what counts. Scripture is telling us all through here that KEEPING THE COMMANDS of God is a MUST to those who LOVE him…remember it also says HE IS GONE TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. WE HAVE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED WHAT IT MEANS TO LOVE HIM AND THAT IS TO KEEP HIS COMMANDS. IF WE DON’T KEEP HIS COMMANDS THEN WE DON’T LOVE HIM.

IF WE DON’T LOVE HIM THERE WILL BE NO PLACE PREPARED FOR US IN HIM.

His place prepared for those who love him is HEAVEN. But he has also prepared a place for those who do NOT love him FOR THOSE WHO REFUSE TO KEEP HIS COMMANDS and that is HELL. Luke 16 verse 23 “In HELL where he was in torment” Matthew 10 v 28 “but rather be afraid of the one who can destroy both body and soul in HELL. The good news is ……

John 3 verse16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life” BELIEVING IN GOD’S SON MEAN FOLLOWING HIS COMMANDS.

GOD WANTS NON-TO PERISH, BUT WE MUST DECIDE PERSONALLY.

PLEASE RE- READ THE TEACHINGS AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS PAPER TO BE REMINDED OF HIS COMMANDS.
